I think the commentator did ok. It's pretty hard doing it solo and trying to think of stuff to say all the time. I'm sure alot of us on here could not do a better job.

That said, I was only there on the Saturday and I can see how listening to 2 days of the one voice and get a bit tiresome.

Also, the times he called out I thought was good. Everytime a car went over the line he would call out the driver name and lap time.

It was easy to know who was doing what, and how far off their PB and all.

Was also loving the ferocity of the Pulse racing Evo coming out of the final turn, it was on the gas so much earlier than the other cars. Thing has some serious punch!

Yeah, how committed did Glenney wana be both the Pulse Evo and STi on Turn 12!!... awesome stuff!

Well fact is Cyber made 475 awhp on Friday night at 1.2 bar. They ran it at 1.6 on Saturday to set that time. So 600 would be closer?

Interestingly we compared a bit of data with some other teams and one fun fact was Berry's car was 20klm/h up on Sierra car at the end of the straight. Shows how

much downforce/drag that SS car has!

Cyber car weighs 1125, and creates 1250lg of dowforce. Yes, you read that right. They said under that car is really something special!

:-))

what's 1250lg of downforces?

Impressive commitment. I had my doubts but Russ made it happen and pulled it off. Minor miracle.

Roy yes a relaxing weekend for the Slot Car. Still waiting for custom dry sump pump. We will be in the mix next year.

The weather held off nicely and a massive weekend.

That VQ sits in there nicely!

Tried to find you to say Gday but didnt see you

My buddy Elvin got that gig. Bloody legend. Big dogleg drive out to Marks late thursday night, somehow wrangled the short engine into his wagon (he's 50kg wringing wet and no engine crane), drove through the night to get the short to us by 10am. Farkin LEGEND!

that is an effort! I struggle with RB cranks and im 80kg lol

***awaits Harry to make a spelling mistake*** :(

I meant kg of downforce you flogger. The L is beside the K.

KOK

Hey Ben, did the Tilton Evo end up making it to the track?

I heard some rumours of a ridiculous power to weight ratio of that thing!

hehe

my real question is does that mean 1250 kg total on the scales while in a windtunnel? So 1250-1125=125kg of actual downforce?

gimme 5 bags of cement, a few pies and a f**k load of coke and hookers. You can keep your fancy aero :(

Hey Ben, did the Tilton Evo end up making it to the track?

They were both there!! Garth did a 1:37:05.... The new on isnt finished yet but they are going to town on it now :(

Harry, yes. From our conversation with Tarzan, he said the car can drive upside down, F1 style. Upside farking down!

And yes, the Tilton car was there, but hobbled by massive understeer from what I saw. :ermm:

I wouldn't want to be a front tyre on that car. A shame as I too had heard some awesome numbers.

The 2nd car was on display, and looks to be much more serious :(

A shame too that the ex Supercars didn't make a better show of it. Looks like 38/39 is about the limit for a Supercar chassis on R comps. I had high hopes that they've give a bit of a hurry up to the front runners!

Jess, I heard something about 1100HP and 1125kg is this true? If so I want a go :(

HAHA Sounds like Kosta :ermm: The new car is going to be nuts and it needs to be with the competition they saw on the weekend!

Awesome World Time Attack is now being talked about on Top Gear Oz!

    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
