Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

It seems i unwillingly opened a can of worms here

Big call. Depends on what you call larger scale I guess...

by bigger track day/car event I mean by number attendance

Happy laps and powercruise are NOT track days :glare:

To me any event that is held at a race track is a track day. Regardless of how amateur/fun/serious it is

Is it during day time: yes
Is it on a track: yes

I will agree that happy laps is not a "track day", but don't drag events like powercruise through the mud. It is the upper pinnacle of what it is, and a win there basically puts you one of the fastest usable cars in the state.

Winning/placing at events at "Powercruise" is the be all end all as far as I'm concerned...

Powercruise is high on the list for the common car enthusiast.

Only if you consider a world outside drag racing, which apparently these guys don't

Powercruise can EAD.

Im not all about drag racing.... Interesting fact #6287: I've never taken my r33 to the drag strip, ever.

I have, it took me a few years to recover, and almost made me part my car and burn the rest just to make sure I was never associated that rajab awful cesspit of bogans.

Let me guess, you got chopped by a few commodores and you hurt your little Gtr ego?

McFly, telling it how it is.

I can see the merit in powercruise for those inclined that way but I wouldn't call it a track day. Nick, come to the QR sprints :yes:

If i had the $$ id set my car up for sprints and have a stab at it. Unfortunately it isnt and i dont have the $$ so i dont. Plus my driving talent is poor lol

My driving talent also sux - I will still give a track day a go when I am ready.

Children children! you buncha one eyed bigoted closeminded snobby noseup retarded ratbags.

the word "track day doesnt have its roots in circulating at speed around a race track in a car at all. Athletics have track days, horses have track days, cars have track days.

What you do when on the track is your affair but it is a track day regardless.

Drag racers have track days, time attackers have track days, bogans have track days, drifters have track days dirtbikers have track days, rc fans have track days. drug addicts have track days and for those old enough to remeber even swagmen have track days.

Sprinters are looked down upon by door to door racers, drag racers are looked down upon by sprinters and door to door racers, burnout boofheads are looked down upon by drag racers and spring racers and door to door racers.. power cruisers are looked down upon by segments of all the above and drifters are the scum of the earth according to most.

Take it from an old head. pretty much all of the above can give you an adenalin rush and make you wish you went and had that quick piss before you lined up.

Drag racing is a science in its own right as is time attack and door to door racing. (similar but with some differences)

power cruise is the showcase to all that is holy to the tough street car brigade. regardless of make model or country of manufacture there is true art on display at these events along with horsepower beyond imagination. To suggest that all one needs is a phat engine to be a player in that game is ignorant. the majority of the better cars are built from the ground up with a singleness of purpose to rival any found in other disciplines of motorsport.

You dont know what adrenilen is until you are circulating on a track with a 100 other cars and a collective hp effort totaling may thousands. Its a sight and sensory overload regardless of what you think of the tatood mullet hangin out the window of the car beside you.

Lighten up kids. dont just look over the fence and sneer, jump the bloody fence and go have a play.

you may be surprised.

I think this is the first time I have ever seen Noel post in here

Holy mother of replies, well said old man :)

This being probley my favorite line of the whole thing: power cruise is the showcase to all that is holy to the tough street car brigade.

And talking about mullet sporting bogoits Scott can vouch for how much we wanted to blow old bud in that [skids] ute away at PC.

    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all. 
    • Ok. What is the go to transmission upgrade that can handle some abuse with around 700nm at the hubs? Must be quiet gears as the car is being street used.
