We need the rwd gang to fly the flag, we need a time in the 49s

[dave1200]

Shouldn't be a problem Troy, I did 2:04 last time but have shed some weight since from a bout of the trots in Vietnam. Maybe 1:48's?

[Belsil80]

Consider it done troy. i am going to go straight at turn 1 and rejoin at the kink just before honda. its gonna be a big day now, we have a bucks night down at PI on the saturday night...

[Roy]

No strippers in PI, unless you import them. In which case i am flying back !

it used to be great, but since i replaced one of the tie rod ends ive had no luck being able to get back my nice set up. now all i have is under steer and PLENTY of it!!!

conserned about noise levels .... and the chance of rain as i will be running economic crisis spec tyres.

How do you think me car will go with noise restrictions there????

Im really sitting on the fence here

when is the latest you can pull out and still get your money back

[Roy]

With the WRX Club i have been pinged because of noise. If you take it easy for the first two sessions and change up at 4,000rpm ( ) and keep the gate closed you can get some good sighthing laps under your belt. Last time i was there i got two sessions where i gave it curry in the afternoon. Total of 5 laps in anger But still good fun...wich i was able to make it.

[phunky_monkey]

And I'm out... balls

[Downforce]

wtf Dane? why?

[phunky_monkey]

Because some parts suppliers are rats...

Had some issues with my fuel system and have been dicked around. We want to make sure the car is right before it hits the track to minimise teething issues, so instead of rushing it we decided to go for Sandown later in the month. Not happy about it though... not happy at all.

[Downforce]

sandown it is then. if you wanna ride down with me to PI let me know

Pppfftt, as if...

Stop being delusional Troy.

[phunky_monkey]

Thanks Matt

You'll be leaving at the crack of dawn, yes?

[Roy]

Man, i think my car with the Bislteins would have done a 1:50 if i didnt use 4th gear at turn 1 and i got the line onto the straight properly then there might be a bit of time in it. Its possible?!?!?!! I did a 1:52 flat and because the EPA guy hung around all day i only got a few laps to try

So

On the first lap the tyres were still not quite warm, was rough and ready with a few errors and it was a 1:52.00 flat. So close to a 51 Looking at the corner speeds and data for the second lap i was quicker through turn 1 and turn 2 & 3. I lost time on Southern Loop. I also messed up MG but got onto the straight way faster then i had on any other lap on the day. So the second lap in the vid had some good bits but i ham fisted MG but the lap was still a 1:53.1 or 1:53.4 so ?!?!?! Its definitely doable.

LOL, i hate that somebody else in the club, (Ryan or Matt) will be the first into the 49s before me LOL, i am no longer willing to bin it trying...paint costs way too much money.

But seriously if i am delusional in thinking there is a 1:50 in the car in the vid then i want to be set straight...i dont want false expectations for myself and the car.
