Its going to be fully epic :domokun: Good luck Godzilla Motorsport, make the HT guys work for it.... its been years since I've seen that car battling another GTR down the 1/4, the intensity of seeing two mid 7s GTRs fight it out would be awesome!

I am of course going to have to wave the HT banner, haha. But a new record would be awesome to hear about in general!

It won't be the only day they'll be aiming to do before Jambo anyway, and I wouldn't be expecting to see any records rewritten from the outset either - obviously its always awesome to watch but I'd say Jamboree would be the one to hang out for :P

I remember the testing last time tho! It ran 8s & 7s sideways while they dialed in the setup !!!

Still wet this morning, should dry up during the day, but not too confident!!!

Its a bit of a beast now, even compared to then. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't mess about getting it into the 7s - so long as track is semi decent. I was more thinking of when they go under 7.5 :woot:

I don't mind not seeing it break any records at WSID but i cant make it to Jambo so i'd just luv to see the worlds quickest gtr run down the strip a few times

Ahhh bummer :) I hope people put vid up as I'm not even in the right country to see any of this.

Yeah good idea, reasonably safe bet you'll see some of the fastest/most dramatic runs you'll ever see a GTR do if you make it to any events it runs at.

Good luck! Raise the bar, everyone :P

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
