BIRDS have a look at this

Tell me what this man should have done from about the 24-30 second mark. If you think it would be quicker to change to second and then back to first then you're dreaming. If you put the clutch in you start to slow down, if you back off early you lose time. Please explain.

The other thing is that in a sub 30 second run of a motorkhana, the extra bit of heat you get in your tyres from a bit of wheel spin early may well be worth more time in grip than you lose initially. I don't know that it is but I bet you don't know that it isn't.

I think you've made some good points but perhaps you are basing too much of your theory on circuit racing. But even in circuit racing you have those moments where you just nudge your rev limiter a moment before your braking point where it is not worth going to the next gear. How do you handle these situations?

Well it looks like a seat is needed for the Silvia sooner than I thought. The back has torn away from the base bracket which explains why I could only sit in hectic VL turbo mode or literally hang off the steering wheel for the second half of the day lol

Made for some interesting driving :down:

Who's got a seat to suit an S13 they wanna sell me!

thanks for posting up the results, comparisons are nice.

just to throw some fuel on the fire, deca is fun, tyre's smoke, limiters bounce, and i'll see you all in november :D

i'm spewing i touched the hat as i parked on the mini wang :down: and i didn't realise scores were overall combined, not just the best run from each person

Thanks Ryan for letting me win RWD! :down: One day I'll beat you for real haha.

It doesn't matter if you win by and inch or a mile....... blah blah blah....

I'm happy with that. Not any awesome results, but nothing terrible either.

Definately bring on next Nov. I was let down by my Mini and Long Wang times. I was a bit nervous about pushing the car on such high speed tracks, but the next time I think I'll give it a bit more stick.

Still can't believe a stock 110awkw auto Evo driven by someone who has never done anything like this before managed to pull such awesome scores. Now I see why people call Evo's cheats.

Great work guys..

Congrats to the winners... Chris & Russman..

Good to see Russell Gilder right up there, he was driving the pants of that thing...

Also I reckon the quite achiever of the day would have to be Dane Stokes...

He was putting around all day in that little STI just putting down some consistantly quick times...

Just missed out on the Outright Podium... good work...

Cheaters aside... :blush::(

the RWD boys/girls did a great job aswell.

I'm happy with my results too... as long as there is a Corona in the top 20 it is all good..

Sticking it to all you Modern Chassis / Modern suspension setup, plastic fantastics...

One day... One day Corona's will rule to world.........of Deca..

*waits for Ryan to pipe up* :laugh:

Your long wang time would have been better if you didn't try and stop at the finishe line :blush:

Thanks Matt and Adz :(

Well done to all... except you Russ... 2 points! :blush: Haha nah, well done mate, nice driving! I can't believe I went right instead of left at the last cone on the first skidpan event... ahhhh woulda, coulda, shoulda :laugh:

But I'm even more in love with my car now after DECA. I'm so impressed with it for a stock car *hugs*

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?

      What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
