Matty, try the Penrite Sin brake fluid. Its their 600deg fluid, and is alot cheaper than Motul or Castrol. Worked fantastic in the GTR.

I was out there on Saturday. Saw your car and meant to come and say hi, but bumped into a few old mates and before I knew it the arfernoon was over.

Man that's alot of camber on the front of your ute!

It may only be 0.06 of a second but it is still an improvement on last time - well done.

I did a 62.52 on the QR Sprint Track today. I was really hoping to at least dip into the 61's but I'm still struggling with a soft brake pedal and understeer. I will make some changes before the May meet and see if I can lower my time again.

My sports sedan has run at PI , Winton and 2 other tracks I can't remember right now (I'll get the info out of the log book).
Sadly not with me in it and I don't have times

I do have times for Barbagello long and short circuit I'll post up when I get home
Bit hard to compare though

SO which hillclimb at mount panorama is that?

Obviously not the esses, but is it the Supersprint Conrod Straight or Mountain Straight?

My guess is Mountain straight....but I'll wait to confirm with you woody.

well the state hillclimb at the mount was a blast and i now own a class record for the improved production 0-1600 class (no where near bennys time though )

dodgeman, any chance the Boss might make the trip up to Mt Cotton for the Australian Champs this year? Would love to see the car in action.

Quote:'The Boss' doesn't have an account here, but gets a look in when there is something that I want to show him.

At the Bathurst hillclimb in November '06, he was bumped into Grp. J, Imp Production [1600cc] by virtue of the fact that there is no passenger seat, [so I'm told], but he was up for the challenge anyway & with a blistering run of 31.81 seconds he lowered the record by 1.25 seconds if the official results are to be believed.

Many thanks to L18_B110 for the link to the official results.

I was sure I had heard of 'The Boss' (Chris Petersen) doing a Bathurst Hillclimb. Here's the Aust Hillclimb Championships thread and the link to the official results. You'll find their times in Group 3J Imp Prod 0-1600cc class conveniently located right at the top of the results. Pretty quick too!

Fell of the wagon a bit there but sssute, matty's and The Bosses times are now in!

Does 'The Boss' have an account here at 1200.com?
