Wtf...2 of the boys I know got the grouping email but I haven't yet. I entered a week before them...what to do?

Hey Matt,

The email I got with the grouping has a phone number at the bottom. Try 5766 4235 and see if you can get through to Adam.

Cheers

Good times peeps :thumbsup:

Hey Jack...too embarrassed to run the emo under SAU were you ;) How did you find the emo compared to the real race car?

LOL, not at all mate, just happened to be good timing to attend this trackday at Winton...

Well what a day! Was worried about the weather but it turned out to be a nice sunny day, until the clouds came in at about 1pm and the temperature dropped considerably, rain held off though. Was good to catch up with Troy, Matt (femno) and crew, Martin (emts) and John (ssxRicho). Congrats to all as I'm sure everybody got a PB today.

Was quite anxious really to see how the Emo would go, especially since I've only driven it around the block near my house as it isn't registered, so today was a day to get out there and drive the car in anger for the first time. After spending quite a bit of time in the last 3 weeks getting the car ready it was time to see what it could do.

To say I'm impressed is an understatement. I was aiming just to get used to the car as I have never driven an Emo before, so would have been happy with a 1:38.

So to end up with a 1:35.5 I guess I could not ask for more, especially since the car has a standard motor with standard turbo running 219awkws on e85. I wanted to concentrate on the handling so some Tein Ra's were thrown at it together with a Whiteline rear sway bar. Setup the wheel alignment settings and heights and that's pretty much it. Got some 2 piece project mu used rotors and some new pads and the brakes didn't miss a beat all day.

In all seriousness for the money I've spent it's much better value than what I've spent on the GT-R. Emo's are highly under estimated and are a lot of fun around a track like Winton. I do suspect though at Sandown it won't come near the GT-R, power falls over after 6500rpm.

All in all a fantastic little car and look forward to seeing how far I can push it with current mods...

No doubt Winton is heaven for EVOs, but a good car punted well will be quick everywhere! They do look mint in silver, and to think it was havinga ew problems but was still so quick. Even with only 2L you put me into the shade :) But I was louder...thats all that is important

and with a damn nice note to boot Troy. Glad to see you actually got to enjoy the thing for the whole day.

Had a fantastic day taking 1s off my PB in the cars second outing. Admittedly i dont mind the RWD or lack of front wheel driving force :ninja:

Jack pulling that time in your first outing is just plain silly.
