Mine are the older style GT/GTP with 24 adjustment.

I think they have similar spring rates now though

Finally today I was able to crack the 60sec mark and knock another 0.6sec of my previous PB.

Well done mate!

Very good effort breaking that barrier.

I was nearly 2 seconds down on my pb at Wakefield over the weekend. :(

Traffic is getting ridiculous at these events to get a clear lap, and I may have to start doing some mid week supersprints instead.

[ScatterBrain]

Hey, do they group you according to lap times? That's what they do up here and it works well most the time. Occasionally when numbers are low, they'll group slow and fast cars together.

[nelsonian101]

They usually group according to lap times but they overbooked this time, with quite a few cars in my group lapping 6 seconds slower.

That.......... and my brake pads were stuffed.................you know..................usual wannabee racer excuses.................

[Bulletime]

That'd be like me getting in your way lol, I'd hate that personally too, hate slowin down someone heaps faster cuz know how frustrating it is. Hopefully with all the new circuits opening in the next few years Wakefield might get less heavily booked, saw there's one being planned in shoal haven now and there ludleham meant to open in a few months.

Another good day at Lakeside yesterday. Shaved another 0.767 sec off my PB and gave an Evo9 and a R34 gtr a good run for their money in the last session.

Nice work, how much more time do u think u can shave off?

So r u doing all this without brembos?? What size front rotors, are the pbr-ms two pot?

[ScatterBrain]

I think a high 60 might be possible with the current setup, but its a matter of having no traffic. Towards the end of the last session the Evo was holding me up on a few point on the track, I just couldn't quite get past him safely. The PBR-M are 355mm, 6pot front and 355mm, 4pot rear with EBC Blues all round. Back in 2009 I did a few races with the factory 2pot brakes and trying to stop from 190kph was just ridiculous. I literately had my ass off the seat standing on the brake trying to stop. The PBR-M work wonders, Although I did managed to crack a set of rotors just from excessive heat.
