[mobilechicane]

are these rules in addition to the race 1 rules for p/w etc? or are they completely out the window

& what's the verdict on drivetrains?

 

[miata13B]

yes they are. The verdict on drivetrain is that upon approval, you can use it

cool.
so.. not meaning to be picky, but in the 1st post it says "chassis swaps..". if that means drivetrain i reckon its a bit misleading

edit: thx for including the track btw

Ok, just so i get this straight, we have to make 2 cars? or is just just choose 1 and make it. Either way this is gonna be a bit of a problem for me, since my sharkport is about 1400 miles away and i have not the ability to make hybrids this week. I might be able to use the hybrid i race in the first race in the 500kg/500hp class, but it probably wont do so well. We'll have to see, the deadline isnt until the 29 and i get home on the 26th, so that might leave me a couple days to try and throw somthin together for this

Hmm, now that i think about it, it'd probably be better to use my hybrid in the 750kg/1000hp class cuz i think it weighs 940kg or somthing and is MORE than capable of achieving 1000hp w/ a larger turbo upgrade


Oh yeah, and do we still have to use same manufacturer parts?

Ok, to clear everything up here, You can do chasis swaps and drivetrain swaps upon approval. I should have worded that better. I meant to say drivetrain swaps D'oh, gonna fix that. I would be glad to see everyone make two cars, but I understand if you only make 1.

 

[Frustrated Palm]

Why do we need two cars? Do we race with both of them?

Yeah that is what I was thinking. Becuase only 5 or 6 of us will be racing, with two serparate leagues, I think we would have more results and closer competition. I may be wrong, but I figured it would be fun to run two cars

Well, if you really put your mind to it, you may just figure it out

Hey, I resemble that remark.=======> Mojo

 

[Famine]

Okay... I've made 5 cars and a sixth is in the works currently...

H500 class:
Renaultsport Clio V6 Group B - detuned to 500hp
TVR Speed 8 - Speed 12 with enhanced Griffith 5.0 V8.
Exige 500 - still being built

H1000 class:
Nissan Blitz R348 Skyline - still
Toyota Celica Supra - Celica GT-Four with a Supra engine, amongst other things.
au Supra Road Version - based on a 2003 au Cerumo JGTC Supra, it's a Supra RZ with a 3.5 V8 (as the 2003 JGTC Supras) from the TS020.

Best T2 (in the Blitz) so far is a 52.4. The Supra is quicker more easily, but the Blitz has the edge by just over 0.1s so far...

 

[Frustrated Palm]

Im not so sure I will be able to get in a good time this week. I've spent up until now trying to get the cars correct and I still am (I keep getting more than enough power or to little wieght). Maybe next week ...

 

[mobilechicane]

any objections to a 4WD porsche?
don't worry.. its obese

Famine i think our entries this week may be slightly similar in places ... variations on a theme

[edit] forget abou the porsche.. it sucked[/edit]

 

[Mojo Rising]

Sup All,

I don't see any T2 times yet.

Well, here goes mine then. I don't think I can compete with some of the other cars though. My R34 (Mojo-spec II) is too heavy. But it does have 1000 Hp. My time @ T2 is 50.7 so far. I know I can do better, though.

Let's see some T2's people. The dedline is just a couple of days away.

I don't even have a 500 Kg class car, so what am I rushing you guys for? Anyway, let's see some times.

 

[Mojo Rising]

Me again,

Just thought some of you GT-R lovers out there would like to see this pic I found of a Tommy Kaira R34 It's sweet.

Yowser!

BTW how did you get your Skyline to have 1000hp? The 2.000 PWR rule still stands, so you'd be needing a 2000kg chassis - and there isn't one.

I posted my T2 yesterday. 52.4 in the Blitz.

 

[IDAFC21]

i dont have any t2's yet cuz i dont have any hybriding abilities due to my sharkport currently being in a different state I fly back tonight tho, but i think i work the rest of the week...so we'll see what happens...i may or not have a time this week

 

[Mojo Rising]

Oh No!!!

The 2.00 rule applies?!?! Are you sure? The way It looks to me, is that rule went out the window. Cuz I can't even think of a car right now that weighs 2000 Kg.

This is how the rules are stated:

#2 Car 1 has no less then 500kg and no more then 500hp
#3 Car 2 has no less then 750kg and no more then 1000hp

So I figured that the 2.00 rule was out the window.

Damn it. Miata Help. What's the deal? Did I Misunderstand? I think I'm in trouble.

so did i.. but now that i think about it:

car 1 must weigh between 500kg-1000kg
car 2 must weigh 750 - 2000kg.
& both must have half that many horses.
simple really.
damn

well... using a completely illegal car 2 (p/w ~1.1) i was at 46.7!!

back to the drawingboard ...

 

[miata13B]

The previous power weight rules do not apply
It is now going on a weight scale by minimum amount of weight allowed

 

[mobilechicane]

woohoo!!
consider my T2 time legal

yet to make a 500hp car though

 

[Mojo Rising]

Miata asked if I think extending the dedline would be a good Idea.

My answer is YES, Please. I think that quit a few ppl need some extra time to dial in there rides. I just got mine Tech Inspected, so I know I don't have too much longer to bring my times up.(Well, down I mean) I still need to tune it some more. but mostly It's getting to Know the track better with it.

I know my GT-R R34 (Mojo-spec II) isn't going to be the fastest, but I still love racing it and seeing how it fares against all your rad rides.

So, is it going to be GT-PHARRT, or what?

 

[IDAFC21]

I know id like an extension this week...i just got back from vacation last night and i work the rest of the week so i havent had, nor will i have much time to even make one car, let alone two

 

[Famine]

My bad then - I thought these rules were in addition to the first set of rules posted...

Time for a bit of supertuned fun...

 

[miata13B]

Ok then, that settles it I am going to extend the deadline One week here, it will be editted above I needed an extension too because I have not had anytime to play.


Hopefully this time around, Norris Designs can make a come back

 

[IDAFC21]

woo hoo! thanks for the extension man....so is the new deadline friday september 5th?

 

[mobilechicane]

👍 extension good.
I'll send my new charge(s?) your way soon for some scrutineering miata

 

[miata13B]

[mobilechicane]
