Okay Okay write bloody up,,,I'm not perfect but god am I close.

Scan it,,,buy a copy yah tightarse.

Love as always

Neil.

Actually he can have my copy. Just be warned that I threw up on it when reading the Cochrant interview.

Apparently I joined Cams because of Tony.

And people go to track days because of V8 Supercars.

And a whole pile of other tendentious bullshit. :cool:

Phark can we have Motorsport News back to being fortnightly? Even if it was a week old by the time it got to the newsagents over in WA it was atleast readable.

Well this thread was about the wonderful Bluebirds running 26 pounds or was it 36. I loved watching George sticking it up the V8 boy's especially HDT.

Cockrane's a smart piece of work,,,all the tracks he talks about have been improved and thats because of his V8 lot. I see nothing wrong with what he's done. I don't care what you think and the way I see it now,,,none of those track owners would have done a thing if he didn't push them. Next time you race at one of those tracks he has improved,,,look around and thank V8's.

Eastern Creek is the only track to tell him to jam it and get away with it from memory.The joint is booked 12 months in advance.

Yeh right :) Supercars have done nothing for motorsport in Q in fact street events like Indy at the Gold Coast drain money away from permanent circuits. And how can one event in the year support a permanent circuit anyway? QR's overwhelming business income is from grassroots motorsport activities, the reopening of Lakeside is a prime example of grassroots driven infrastructure.

Well lets pick 1 straight off the top of my head,,,

Bathurst has a beautiful new pit lane and corporate area. The top of the track has also had major changes made. Do you think for one moment these would have happened without V8's.

NO

Oh what about Oran Park,,,garage upgrades that would never have happen either.

NO

Don't get me wrong I think he's a turd but he and v8's have done heaps to make permanent tracks better.

Neil.

oh we are so off topic already but here I go anyway....

both those tracks you just said are temporary...bathurst is twice a year and oran park will be gone within 2 years. not really a great advertisment for how supertaxis are helping aus motorsport.

How many new permanent tracks have been built in the time supercars have been around (15 years, 93 - 08)? 0. And how many new, temporary, street circuits (Indy, Canberra, Townsville, Hamilton)?

    • And this is the the thing with a high powered, AWD, heavy car. The engine is easy, the driveline costs just as much as the engine. 🤷‍♂️ Welcome to GTRland. Whatever you think your budget is, double it. Whatever you think your timeline is, triple it.
    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
