Steve is green trace.
Not much in it John :-). A bit more gas in the turns?

Macca - see my earlier post:

Best time was 1.18.77, but lots of early 1.19's.

I am not used to such good brakes and kept braking at my C3 brake points.

No paypal. Not much good for me (in Vanuatu)! Bloody frustrating....
I could order it for you on my card or txt you my card details no worries

That's basically it. I can hold my own from turn 2 through to the braking point for turn 1.

Doug was a legend thinking he could keep up with Nigel's GT3 through the sweeper - I quite enjoyed watching his turn 10 gardening..........

Seemed to have plenty of power/acceleration too. Is your car effectively stock at this stage Paul (bar the track tyres)?

Turn 1 is still my weakness. Glad I've got the AIM as beggared if I could feel the difference in those last 3 laps where I shaved close to a second. Must check my GoPro.

I wondered who was kicking up all of the dust. Doug, get yourself some Z221s...

John - the sub 20 is now inevitable.

You need to broadcast your new goal.

You are no longer Captain Slow.

We need another newbie to pass the mantle onto.

Before the last session I saw Dan fitting the SW Chip so not completely stock.

Yes - 221's is the only change I have made and only known mod to the car.

I have PSS10's, RoW sway bars, new front bushes, RS engine mounts, Steve Wong chip and a short shift going in from tomorrow, which should bring to a similar spec as John's and your car.

This should be good for another second and bring the car into the mid-17's.

Close (...........in proximity), it was a fire extinguisher.

Naturally, I'm aiming at sub 1.19.50. I think it's very achievable, but after that who knows. I'd like to try 2K Cup racing to get some race craft.

I think Doug can have the mantle. He's a 964 newbie and we know he's not out there for a Sunday drive. I'm looking forward to some ducking and weaving on the SITT.

My top speed down the straight was consistently between 188-191 Kph - John was basically the same.
