Bathurst Speed Weekend 2005 Photo's

[Tosh]

Guys,

The Speed Weekend this year was fantastic yet again. I have started a gallery from the weekend and I will be updating it throughout the day today.

Enjoy

Team Powerplay @ Mt Panorama, Bathurst

I was up there for the Sunday Hillclimb - the skylines looked (and sounded) great

From my vantage point they were just flying in comparison to most (if not all) others

Who had the fastest time for the day?

What were the GTR's averaging roughly?

[Tosh]

We didn't get a time sheet for the Sunday because we just left before the presentation.

They should be up on the BLCC website in the next couple of days...

I suspect the VL Sports Sedan had the quickest time as he took quickest outright in the Supersprint. Greg's White R32 GTR from Autosport Engineering took 3rd outright and 1st in class in the supersprint as well.

A friend of mine was up there in his Black S3 RX7 and he did a 52 on the hillclimb and he was MOVING.

Thanks for the pictures

[N1GTR]

Yeah that VL was .....er....different to say the least

The RX7's looked good too

(looking forward to next year)

I haven't had a chance to finish the gallery today... will be finished tomorrow

[wilch]

very cool. Thanks for the pics tosh!

...and thanks for the bonnet

[Tosh]

no worries mate it's a BLOODY nice bonnet.. Have a look at how the plastic re-inforcing is all glued properly all the way round instead of being tacked on. That's the main difference in quality compared to the others. Also gives it strength

[wilch]

it is awesome. damn awesome. I just wish I could put it on by myself. LOL

I've already taken pics

Thanks for the pics! What can you tell me about that Stagea?

[Zebbie]

That stagea might even convice the mrs that they're not ugly, pimped up Volvo's!! Very, Very nice!

How many cars and how many runs do you get in a day?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

The boys got about 4 runs in the supersprint and 3 runs in the hillclimb. I'd say there were around 80 to 100 cars throughout the day... It's a great event!

The times should be posted on the BLCC website soon. www.blcc.com.au

I'm glad I made the trip down from Brissy. That was an awesome weekend of racing around parts of Mt Panorama! And good to meet a couple of guys from SAU. The PowerPlay guys had some really nice cars, and I'm sure they'll get quicker as they get some more comps under their belts. And that Stagea looked so tuff!

We actually got 5 runs on Saturday's Supersprint and 4 runs on Sunday's Hillclimb. That was just an amazing piece of road! Boosted Zed, if you're thinking about entering next year, I'd definitely recommend it - the grin factor of running flat out around the mountain is unbeatable!

There were some quick Skylines down there! Bruce's Black 32 GTR (#111) and Greg's white 32 GTR (#696) were simply ballistic! Nice guys too. They completely outgunned me on Conrod, but I managed to even it out with a class win and 3rd outright on Sunday's Hillclimb It came as a pretty big surprise as I wasn't even top 10 on Saturday!

Hey SW20-GT, did you happen to get any pics of my car (#32) ?
