World Time Attack Challenge 2012

[R32 Stuart]

Turn 5 has also been changed due to the extra pit lane added to the outside of the curb meaning you can put all 4 wheels over the curb (which isn't a curb, just a concrete strip dividing the track from the pitlane).

The exit of Turn 9 is also much wider giving better exit speeds.

Laptimes will be easily a full second quicker than last year prior to any car development.

We find with the changes to 6 - 7 - we are slower up over the hill in the R33 and the AU, it hasn't changed our exit speed at 9 on data yet, but definitely less grass and dust entering vehcile.

The above surfboard splitter - would actually be legal to run in CAMs 2A closed sports cars bar width - must have some good front springs, if it gets up to 200kms it would have 4 tonne of downforce. He will need 20 ply front tyres

Cheers

having a look at some of the UK cars they are well organised and fast. Redbrick Racing might do well in AUS,

Cool vid

That Cusco car is an abomination...here is to hoping that good looking cars prevail over cars done by aerodynamicists who are doing finger paintings of race cars with their 5yr olds

[Tai1or Made]

This is awesome.

Is this thing running leaf springs!?!

[sav man]

pretty sure it's running a v8 supercar 4 link rearend with ohlins coil overs

[PN-Mad]

Nein- what sav man said.

From what I've heard/saw last year, its pretty much a Supertaxi chassis with the struts and stuff to make it eligible to compete. Plus a 4 speed!

Should sound great down the main straight, but not be an outright contender.

[Hank Scorpio]

Wow, would have assumed it'd be fasterb then 1:40 being a Super Taxi and all. A 4-Speed certainly sounds... well interesting.

[Russman]

So anybody got the low-down on what some of the Sydney cars are doing around EC during testing??? It's been a little quiet in here lately...

[Nee-san]

Tilton tested recently, interested to see the times.

Interested to see what the all carbon Evo from up here is doing out at QR.

[Roy]

It was on slicks...seems a strange approach to testing...but probably just doing engine etc checks not susp work yet

[handbrake]

used slicks, best/cheapest way to get your shakedowns for mechanical gremlins out of the way prior to working on setup.

we won't be at WTAC, won't get it all finished on time I'm afraid.

Have opted to complete the build properly without crazy amounts of pressure and spend a good 10 months testing before the cyber GTR comes out.

should be a great event this year!

Ahhh damn was looking forward to seeing your car again!!

But respect that you want to do things 110% will be an absolute weapon once done

Pulse racing Evo will be having a shakedown at Wakefield at Evo nats this weekend looking strong this year

[Russman]

I think the Chasers evo from vic is going to that as well.

[ssxRicho]

Chasers Evo ran a 27 at winton recently.

Yeah frieken fast ey! I'd like to see what worked with their setup to get that fast!

[evil_weevil]

Jason with the EVO "bad ass" did a 1.03.7 on treaded tyres at wakie today.

[boxheadmr]
