oh shit this will stir some shit up......

GTR's are fast if the driver knows what he is doing.

**SHIFTY** · 10-02-2008 02:53 PM

2 bad most of them dont know what there doing then eh :P

accept for the odd GT-R with a decent driver....

most of them battle 2 do the same times as a mildly modded DC2R....

lol what im trying 2 say power doesn't mean crap on the curcuit... look at all the honda's with like 110kw @ wheels doing quick times (not just honda's but u get what i mean).. but not the odd quick times but constant quick times (which is what really mater's)

Sorry 2 go of topic... ill stop while i am ahead now...

Its not the GTRs you have to be worried about, its the old datsuns, VW Beetles etc that you need to fear, and all these driven by men in their 50s and 60s who built their cars in their backyards.....they will trash the shit out of you...LOL

lol, no-one takes R34's to supersprints!

they are too afraid to get shown up by an old RX7 with a good driver LOL!!!!

supersprints are very good places to learn how to drive, and a boosted civic is always going to be quick around a track, power isn't everything!!!!

you will be in class SVC racing against turbo'd MX5's and the like...

(there were only a few entrants last year in this class - puts you in with good chances of being near the top if you compete all rounds...)

plus GTR's are in class SVD along with WRX's and EVO lancers....

makes me so much more happy. I just wanna get out and have some fun. Not really caring if i win anything but i dun wanna come last on the track if i can help it.

I'll talk to leo about it on sat and get details off him

that is the thing,

at SS - drivers go out in 'colour groups' based on previous lap times, so you drive with others the sameish kinda pace as you,

you don't go out in your class group...

this way, there is no kinda "race" and there is less chance of you having to pass another car (which slows both cars down) and get your best lap time you can (the aim of the event)...

last year i was racing with turbo'd MX5's, fully worked V8 Torana's, Commodores, RX7's, Lotus Exige, turbo falcons etc etc
