Entry is in, Now to find out if its better to do the sprints on saturday in my car with the top up or down.

From guys that have been there (to race)

What is the best time to get there for a person thats never been?


If you show up around 11am you should be able to find a spare pit bay or ask someone if you can share a pit.

This saturday I will be heading up early aiming to get there by 10. Don't want to run the risk of getting No pit or having to park all the way down the End... Its going to be packed!!! Wednesday was heaps busier than usual, in the past events sometimes we have had as little as 3 groups with all of just 6 cars in each group, yesterday there were 5 groups with around 8 in each.

Well im entered, but my turbo has a disconnected wastegate actuator, so I will have sfa power... probably just what i need at this juncture (going by my performance in the wet...)

it will be interesting to see how the car goes with a very linear power curve

Team TPR would like to convey their luck to those going out today, and also like to express their absolute thrill in being able to sleep in thumbsup.gif tongue.gif

Have fun, I'd come out and spectate but I can't be bothered putting fuel in the car if I'm going to be away for a bit more than a week...TPR at it's best laugh.gif

Alot of thrills and spills today ...

A car had an engine failure and spilled some fluids down at the start of turn one ...

For that two of the GT40's ended up in the kitty litter and a Ferrari joined them on the beach ...

The XR Falcon that went through wasn't so lucky and ended up with a well massaged front end ohnoes.gif

In other news ...

Hipowers CRX is now in the 58's smile.gif

In other-other news ...

Garlic Rx7 is still as graceful as ever with his spins laugh.gif tongue.gif

yeah saw the XR6 on my way out....hmmmm thats got to suck.

Ive got exactly the same XR6 (but a wagon, my old car) sitting out the back of my house, maybe if the guy needs a new one hit me up, I might sell it lol

seriously how do you spin on that track, its not that hard....and woot my best time (first ever track work for my spyder/myself) was 71secs, i think i need to go harder next time lol (and buy some slicks).

awww come on, give me some slack, it was only 1 spin... I thought I did pretty good, 67s, less than a second off my best time. I say this is good because my turbo was only providing a restriction on the exhaust... was getting no boost anywhere.

(yea yea yea, I know the saying, a poor tradesman blames his tools... the wastegate really wasn't closing though..)

Congrats to the HiPower CRX, 58s are awesome times. is anyone racing at topgear tomorrow?

Come to think of it, I saw your ride at the Stapleton BP today before I ventured off to the Casino.


How did Mike, the black S2000 go?
