IPRA Bathurst 2019 Race 3 - JCox Datsun 1200 Turbo

Johnny Boston from Trackshcool was kind enough to lend me this rocket after the Zook failed. Its got a CA18det, Skyline gearbox, Hilux diff, Bilstein shocks and plenty of grunt. Had breathing issues all weekend and kept pushing oil out of the catch cans. Started rear of grid for race 2 and 3. Race 2 we turned the boost down to try and make it last, which it didn't. Race 3 we cranked it right up and just wanted to get as far up the road as possible! Looking back taking to the grass up the hill wasn't my finest moment but everything else I was fairly happy with. Except I did forget to turn off the launch switch at the start, whoops! I definitely found myself racing without a clear mind after working non stop on the car all weekend and racing the Evo in the 6hr. The boys did a great all weekend to help keep the car on track, couldn't have done it without them.

Make sure you watch right until the end, I parked the car in a really cool spot and left the camera running. You get an awesome perspective of how fast some of the Improved Production cars.
