Wakefield Jazz day! Tue. July 5th

Wow, what a day. I'm pretty tired but here's a quick rundown of the best times of the day:

Petrovski, ACE888 and I tracked our Jazzes and having the competition was heaps of fun!
Each time one went out and got a better time, then I would go out and try harder to better it after swapping tips on cornering and braking. In the end I was able to shave about two seconds off my previous best time!

Congrats to Petrovski winning the <1.6L n/a class, with a fantastic lap time that I think shows the hidden potential of the jazz (it was pete's first time to the track) -- Watch out Wynode!

Good stuff guys!

I'm sorry I couldn't make it...I had an appointment come up that couldn't be avoided.

Pretty impressive stuff from the little Jazz, and Pete from his first time out.

Can't wait to see some pics....

Pete that's an awesome time! Was a good day and Iwoul have liked to hit 1:19s but ran out of fuel.

hey people! well i gota say it was a good day!
apart from pete making me wait 50mins before he picked me up this morning!! (at 6am!)
It was good to meet you guys who turned up down there, i was passenger in petes car and the giver of good advice for him "BRAKE HERE!!!" :D

but yeah, big up's for pete winning his category with a 1:20.8, epsecially good concidering it was his firt time on the track and in basically a stock Jazz, apart from suspension. And it was full weight, not like the other cheaters on here, ripping out all their interior :P
A thing to note was that the jazz was keeping up with cars that should have out driven it easily ie R33 GTS-t's, S15 and teggy type-r's. we kept up with them all :D well some anyway
oh pete was good enough to set up a camera in the back of his car so for the non-believers.....there's proof :D

anyway it's quite late, but i would recomend this for everyone....sooo much fun, but highly adictive! i think pete wants to come back with some semi-slicks and a bit more power

Not bad guys!!! I saw the times... :)

Have a look at Session 6 (and final session) of the day where I (in a stock Jazz minus all seats and spare tyre) pulled off a miracolous 1m 20 point 916 seconds!!!

GOOD STUFF....

Pictures please.... :D

Damnit! :D I had a full petrol tank by then, would have loved to go out again and have another crack, but ran out of time... Next trackday is October 3rd (Labour day public holiday) !!

But it was such a perfect day yesterday, the air was cold all through the day. Easier on the car, so I didn't feel bad pushing harder... My radiator fan didn't kick in at all during the whole day, even when I pulled in and let it idle for a while to cool down... did yours?

Wonder why that 6th session didn't get included in the overall fastest list..

hey mate,
pete's cars stock apart from having suspension work done.....i think he's just got alot of guts too, with how late he was braking sometimes!
actually a thing to note, if we got the last corner right our top speed down the straight increased from 140 to 150 :)
