It does look like a full track ****. I love it...

It looks really cool like that, love how empty it is inside. All business.

Let us know how it goes on track, should be a tonne of fun!

Hi all,

I had an awesome day today at eastern creek with a mate and my boss.

Best lap of the day was 2m 16 sec in my 2nd and final run of the day.

Quite happy to improve on the 2m 21 sec which I did in my 1st run, my first ever few laps on a race track!!! Such an awesome day, heaps of fun lots more learning and practice needed

Only problem I had with the car was the tyres scrubbing on the guards, so I'll need to roll them for the next race.

I came 118th out of 126 lol, so many cars there today, lucky to get a carport for the day.

Next few mods will be to roll the guards, add some sway bars and stiffen it up a bit as its got a fair bit of body roll. Anyone got any simple tips to get a bit more power out of the old girl who has done 316,000kms?

Offending guard and the damage to my new r888

[russ83]

first run result, remember its my first track day ever and in a car that is stock standard with 316,000kms

[russ83]

2nd run, better and had such a good day. Can't wait to try and beat this time

just curious, Sheffield England or Sheffield NZ?

cheers

Thanks for your comments guile. Great grandfather was from the uk. But that's my surname just in case

[Water Boy]

Love it. Looks mean on the track!
