Well done....engine sounds mean.

[barefootbonzai]

yeah engine sounds hetik. is that EF running a b16?

[e240]

yeah engine sounds hetik. is that EF running a b16?

Nope..Surprise Surprise, that EF's running a D16! ans supposedly stock...hahaha...The driver is pretty quick!!

I feel embarressed with a loud engine. Its still a 1.6 litre though.

I think a bulk of the engine sound was also because of the wind noise (I had my windows down) and an erm..2.5inch straight exhaust :-p

[barefootbonzai]

that's pretty quick for a d-series. You're car even had trouble making any ground on the straights.

Hard to see in the vid but I did gain on the civic down the straight. He did have quite a lead from the beginning, just me no confidence in pushing the car until I have had at least 1 lap.

I also made several mistakes which allowed him to extend the lead further but managed to get right back on his tail.

Interestingly, that vid was when I did the 1:14 while he was at 1:16.

[barefootbonzai]

yeah probably hard to see in the vids.

mate engine sounds really good, i was just playing it then not very loud and dad came running up from down stairs wondering what it was hehe. What engine ect are you running.
I am dieing to get down that way and try out a few of the sydney area tracks. We live near Byron Bay and race mostly in Qld, at Warick, Stanthorpe, Grafton etc,. The track looks like alot of fun

[supersamEK]

what tyres u running there?

[e240]

Engines just a B16A with cams + I/H/E

Tyres are 2 year old used Kumho v700s! Hahaha...I'm a cheapskate.

[supersamEK]

I'm a cheapskate.
..same :p

i've used 16' v700 and 15' R881. gotta admit i like the kumhos better around wakefield... dunno why.

[e240]

Did you go down to round 4?

I caught the flu and had to pull out of that round.

[supersamEK]

nah because i dont know if i will be here all year.. might be going overseas soon for like 6 months, so i havnt bought a cams licence until i know where i'll be. it is tempting though..

[ONE600]

sweetvid.. cant wait to the next autosalon time attack event. Be my first time there too :)

[intacivic16v]

not to sure if you were asking me or not, but at the moment the car is a 1988 CRX with a B16A from a 1990 LS integra, standard just with a microtec computer added. for the last few years i have been running secondhand Yokohama Advan 32R's cus i've been able pick them up really cheap, last set althought they were pretty much dead i got for a carton of beer (arrr the power of alcohol hehe) even when they are that stuff there still better than normal street tyres. I just got a set of Kumho ECSTA V700, which are nearly new so it will be interesting to see how much better new semi slicks are. The Kumho's are a softer rated tyre anyway. I have heard that the Kumho's are better for hill climbs etc because they heat up quicker, but also perish quicker, the Advan's were perfect for Warrick (2.2km times 3 laps)
