Anyone Driven The Supercars At Ahg

[Pal]

just got 12 laps and 2 laps with a expert driver for my 40th birthday from all my mates at work .

Is this as great as it sounds

Well they're not really anything close to a V8 Supercar, but most people still have heaps of fun in them. If you don't do any circuit racing then it will seem like heaps of fun.

i sorta new that as i heard them talking about them when i was at the skid pan day. think they are chipped and extractors (probably not much more power than my line). still, will be a great day.

[br3ndan]

i did 10 laps at the AHG day for my 21st.

It was good fun apart from the fact they are running traction control! hahaha..

its good to unleash on the track and not worry about blowing things up!

Yeah, a few minor mods, roll cage, brakes and suspension. Still plenty enough to have fun in the right hands

Have fun when you go.

I've driven them, not bad for a boat.

[ecentrix]

Yeah, guy the other day was drifting in one (the instructor) i think tcs must have been off.

[KEN-R34]

How much rwhp are they pushing?

[N I B]

Kingscorp has done a lot of instructing in them.

Not much faster than a Stock VE but still fun on that track.

[miss_petepie]

its good for a bit of fun. they dont want you just going out to trash them so they show you to push them properlly.. wish I had more laps tho..

[NA_Goodness]

My mate did it for his bday, said it was good fun, but you gotta do more then 4 laps! So yours would be perfect.

[M-UTED]

They are making 440rwhp (Head and cam package) and maffless tune

spoke to mechanics when i took them for a drive..... only thing thats crap, was when i went, they wouldnt let me out of 3rd or 4th gear, regardless of where i was on the track..... wouldnt allow to drop back to 2nd for 70kph corners of fear of novices breaking gearboxs

[bubba]

They let me use 2nd wherever I wanted but he wouldn't turn the traction control off

It does force you to drive smoother though as they are absolute crap when the TC kicks in.

sorry guys, i actually had another look at my paperwork and ITS 12 LAPS AT BARBAGELLO . MY bad (not really)

[Pal]

just about to leave for this, so full details, 3 laps with instructor driving to show the ropes, 12 laps me driving and 3 more flat out laps with a trained driver. gunna be great, will post picks soon

[Pal]

what a great day, dunno if i would pay 600 bux for it but a great day when its free. cars were a little bit slower than i liked (400hp at flywheel i recon) but was still good. only got to use 3rd and 4th (just at the end of the straight) as they only let us on the short track. felt like i was only in there for 5 mins it went that quick and the 3 laps with the pro driver was great, was trying to hold on more than watch the track

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Sounds like fun, once you've been to the track it's easy to get hooked on it

[R DIRTY 3]

Who was your instructor may i ask?

[vic stagea mick]

I have done it a calder in vic was not as fast as i thought it would be.Brakes are better and exhaust has been done it's still fun but wanted to go faster and yes no second gear to push you out of corners.. They now have v8 race at sandown and not at calder and have had to quieten the cars down a bit to run them on weekdays

[Pal]

cant remember the name. there was 5 of them, one old guy who drives in the v8 supercars and the rest were young fellas (early twentys) who do the v8 utes.
