2014 World Time Attack Discussion

[fatz]

the stream is actually quite good!

about time they did that

[Ants]

Hope it uploaded, cant see it off my phone lol

I thought you did that on purpose

[PN-Mad]

Realistically, it's had zero tests/shake downs if the pics and stuff we've seen are to be believed. I think it's more likely going to spend the weekend broken in the pits.

Hey, look, this guy was right....!

(Regarding US GTR)

Good day, seemed a lot of mechanical carnage going on. Lots of broken things laying round in the pits. Lots of busy crew members.

Brian was providing some great entertainment sliding the R35 round. Disappointed that an emo pushed Scorch off the top step late in the arvo, let's hope he can find a bit more and win it tomorrow.

Turns out i have to hit attach

Wasnt much happening so we retreated to the hotel early lol. Shoulda brought a laptop so i could actually upload pics off my camera, especially of the 767b

Where are the lap times? Natsoft only has Friday

[No Crust Racing]

I think Tilton took out pro with a 24.8 with Scorch coming second and MCA third with a 25.x or so.

Times on the site I thought? Facebook too.

That Livestream was really good. Tilton evo just got it, obviously losing power down the final straight, falling to bits went 1:24.84, Mca went 1:25.7, good lap from SVG. Then US came thru with a 1:24.88. Last runs where very late in the arvo losing light in not the best track conditions I would think.

Tilton was lucky to get away with the win, but congrats to them they seemed to have a horrible weekend wi their car

Shoutout to Richo, I don't know you but man that was good seeing you punt the gtst around for all us gtst owners and for sau in generals awesome driving mate and a few really nice sideways moments too !

Dean lollie did a nice job putting the 32 and 34 onto the podium in open class I think it was.

Can only see podium for Pro class on FB and website only has results for Friday

[JimmyRickard]

I actually thought it was a lot more interesting to watch on the stream than live. When you're out there it's hard to work out who's on a flyer and there's no way to work out who's in front. On the stream you follow the car for it's hot lap and you can see how hard they are pushing. Still it's a great event, and great to see these cars in the flesh and on full song. And the women! Sweet mother of jebus...

If you're there purely for the comp then I think the LiveStream might be the go, but the experience as a whole was great. Walking the pits in particular, chatting to drivers and teams, inspecting cars, getting up close to Nagata, Orido, Tanaguichi, etc, these are names I grew up watching on Jap DVDs etc. Plus the noise, the smell, the stress, it's amazing.

yea i just watched the stream

saved 100 in entry and another 100 is shit i would have bought

[No Crust Racing]

Wasn't that much was it?

I had free tickets, so didn't look at the prices.

[fatz]

50 a head

beer was cheaper at home

[No Crust Racing]

Fair enough.

Free tickets helped then.

I'd go again, I enjoyed it.

I bought a quick release plus some Barrel Bros stickers and whiteline gloves, so yeah, you saved lol.

Update on podiums:

Amazing to see the Open cars hanging with the Pro-Am. All that aero seems a little pointless for the times they are putting down

What happened to Team America?

Too many Cosworth and Pectel parts ie UK parts for it to run reliably But it did look better than expected all stickered up from the pics I saw. Shame to see them not get many kms under their belt give all the work that has gone in to it. Still, team Last Minute will always struggle with such complex cars
