Hi Ocane R34 Gtr

[hrd-hr30]

Yeah, that little sideways on the warmup lap was the lock stops (it doesn't have much lock at all), nice catch Mark

IMO, that really is some excellent driving for a guy who's been to Bathurst twice in two years, in two different cars.

have to agree. Bathurst has to be the most damanding track in the country with those fast blind corners over crests and stuff with concrete lining the edge of the track. In the vid he looks like he's been going there for years like the pros. very impressive!

is the plan to race sport sedans when its sorted? Would be great to see this thing on telly mixing it up with Hossack & Ricciardello! Definitely has the potential in both car and driver.

The downforce was unbeliveable at speed.

Mark was astonished with force trying to make him part company with the seat over the crests, it was litterally trying to lift you out of the seat the car was stuck to the road so hard.

The car has been log booked and mark has his "p" circuit license.

I am trying to get him to do a few rounds. would be great to see.

[Marlin]

Any predictions for the time when the car finally sees Lakeside? (was to be this sunday but lack of all wheels driving put an end to that )

[giant]

thats your job to get him out there benny

I have NFI what's realistic to expect at those low flying type of speeds!

Sport Sedan record is 51.12 by Briggs in his Chev Civic in 1996. That's a seriously great time. Faster than the V8 Supercars ever went. Their record was 51.44 by Seto. Skaife ran a high 52 in the GTR in qualifying in 1991.

the revised track is certaily a little faster... but he has to learn the track and the car is still so new... I dunno, but it will be awesome to see. you have to let me know when its happening! Put me down to lend a hand as crew if needed.

Needs to stay AWD!

So what is happening with the R33 now?

[Marlin]

33 is looking for a new home, but with Russ up north now, it's left to the rest of us to finish it off and move it on. When are you back Roy with a pocket packed with Euros?

Russ, I had him enetered this Sunday, but he pussed out without 4WD. I woulda gorn anyway. It'll have to be 2010 now

[Roy]

I have a pocket full of Rupees so know i cant afford it, though i do love that car....my R32 is what i have until i have a house and garage...otherwise i would be tempted

[Marlin]

poofter.

[Roy]

There is a long and distinguished list of men with broken hearts proving your point. Tell me a good price for a good home and i will take it

[Marlin]

Sounds like you better have a chat with Russ mate

[Roy]

I wouldnt waste his time If i get another OS contract then anything could be a goer

[NZM.031]

hahahahaha its been ages since ive heard/read someone being called a poofter... thats gold!!

[Ant97GTR]

Fantastic driving and the time says it all esp considering the power vs no. of wheels driven

Great track **adds to 'wants to do list'**

[Evocoop]

That looks like a lot of fun Russ. How much were the nomination fees for that? Cirtanly looks like you'd be needin more than a few zip ties to hold the front bar on with that sort of downforce.

[giant]

some hot brakes, on pit straight

[Marlin]

Sweet picture!

How cool is Mark's new helmet, you should get one Russ
