Duncan in his r35 is in the 1.01's and so is Marek.

Stuart in his R33 has done a 1.03 AFAIK

Unsure if Mark Berry has taken the 34 down there yet, but the old 32 did 1.02 or 1.03 a while back.

Yeah Berry did a 62 in the 32 eons ago... and he hasn't had the 34 there. Even the 32 would be quite a lot faster not with the S6 and other improvements

J Appo and I both did low 60's in his weapon 33 GTS-t there in, ohh, 2002, but buggered if I still have the day's timesheets for that one. lol

Such a shame really that our ROYal highness hasn't been allowed to keep it up to date ;)

If those electric pink dildos with ass finding radar and SCADA control R35s can do 61 sec laps then there is no problem matching those times at Wakefield in the GTSt. Dont need shortcuts, just need a cute girl in short shorts and boob tube running up the length of the pit wall with my timign beacon shortening the track for me. Everyone will be so distracted by her athletic display along the pit wall that nobody will care she will be shortening the track by 300mtrs ;)

Mate, in my car I have never been near a 1:10 let alone a 1:01. :P Thats is seriously moving. Even with the circuit changes that seem to have dropped times a little, anything under a 1:04 is moving in my eyes! Wakefield is a good little test track, but does favour gadgetry more then some other flowing tracks.

The R35 (road cars, driven to and from thew track) are doing 1:00's and 1:01's now

http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....09/2010.WAKE.SS

But that is on slicks (swapped out at the track).

Anyone doing sub 60's on anything less than R's - would love to see / know how.

Pretty much the days prior to me having a digital camera, OR being computer savvy! lol

Basically, very stripped 33 GTS-t. Built RB26, twin Apexi low mounts, GTR gaurds. 18x10's, Slicks, big AP's, etc. Made about 400RWKW then had (yes I know I know) another 100 in giggle gas.

I'd like to know where that car is now!

I do have a vid of a 1:00.8 run - but you'll just tell me it all looks too easy :D

I would ... but truth is if it looks easy then the thing is being driven well. Its only when you are slapping the thing all over the road and it looks hard and but is actually probably slower .. but looks cool and impresses the kids :(

I thought the GPS was for the fish finder? That is mega. When driving an R35 that quick, i appreciate to do that time the thing is quick everywhere. But does th edriving style differ much...it looks like you can carry a good wack of speed to the apex and with the grunt and response the thing has get on it after the thing is sorted in the corner and it lunges out of corners. It appears as though your entry speed is high....???? So, so scary quick for a road car

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
