#1 Wow, Datsun1200 turbo

Jordan Cox and Simon's 1200t really kicked butt big time at the Improved Production Nationals over the weekend at Tailem Bend.

Their lap times outright were in the top 3 or so for the meeting! That's against the big guns too. Well done guys, hugely impressive.

I won't say anymore and steal Simon's thunder but looking forward to seeing more of this weapon.

Hey DVR, well spotted. We were having a cracker weekend until the engine let go in a big way! I suppose it had to happen eventually.

Smashed the class lap record and nearly the outright IP record!

-Tailem Bend International circuit 2.05.2 (Unofficial),2.05.95 (official lap record)

Well done!

If you don't mind sharing, what let go?

I haven't pulled it apart yet. Im not sure what let go first, but the No. 2 connecting rod came out the sump.

Thanks Guys,

Here is the in car footage of the first heat.

A wild ride! It is from Pole Position and drives away, so no other cars in the footage apart from a couple of lapped cars at the end.

Well dome Simo!

Sucks about the engine failure but I'm sure you will be back bigger and better

What a great track and it's awesome to see such a well developed car doing well.

I'd claim to be jealous but I know how much work went into the result, kudos to you Simon.
