Put SH tires on an otherwise stock Ibiza, and still it was too much car. I'm going to go into my garage and look for the cars I used in the Autumn Ring QM awhile back, they should suit this event well.

Edit 7/28: Posted in the wrong place. The Ibiza was stock at Autumn Ring, I did need to add some power and a trans to get the win here. Ooops, got to remember to engage my brain before I post.

Used the Esprit V8 from the Autumn Ring Mini round, what a pig handling beast. CS on front, jack up the bass end +35 higher than front, soften the rear and then it's drive able. 1:37-1:40 laps to win.
 
After coming home last night after a few drinks at the pub I thought I'd challenge myself a little. For this I used the Nissan Fairlady 300ZX using @shaunm80 's 450PP tune from the last 80's Japanese intermediate race.

Still managed to get an easy second place behind an M4 and I reckon with more *ahem* sober driving I might have won it!
 
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C5), sauntered to victory with more than a lap remaining.

Highly recommended to try this car for intermediate seasonal race at Motegi, easily win on 454PP, CS, base LSD, full option weight spec 1431kg, close ratio 6 speed 4.46kg/mm front spring. Use the quoted setup.

Very good handling around braking,entry and stable exit. Try to compare between base LSD and open LSD 5/5/5 setup.
 
Any excuse to take my favourite car for a spin-the monstrous Ruf BTR '86 ,no driving aids,no srf and tcs/abs both set at zero,100% stock apart from bb at 5/3 and lsd at 8/8/50(can't remember whose tune I lifted this from,but :cheers:).
An absolute beast of a car,but with some careful handling it's a total joy to drive and capable of running in the low 5.20s or better,my best so far is a 5.21 and small change with a fair few mistakes.
If you like a challenge and a car that will keep you on your toes jump in this little gem and take it for a spin :crazy:
 
nice driving with the Stratos Jase, that's a tricky car to drive. First time around I got 2nd in a Focus RS, then first in an Evo VII MR, and first in a M3 CSL. Fun event, will come back to this one.
