Tsukuba 1'00 barrier with sub-200hp.

F.Zamataki · Sep 20, 2005

Hey guys, most of you probly don't know me but some might remember.
Anyways, i'd like to know if anyone has been able to break the one minute barrier on Tsukuba Circuit with a sub-200hp vehicle. I have submitted my best time in hopes that others can follow and prove this feat possible. Thus far i've achieved 1'00.311 in a 19xxlb CRX with 195bhp(192bhp in garage). I'm also trying to break it with a 200hp Levin. This is quite a challenge and i'd love to know if anyone else is taking it up on their own as well.

thanks.

0'55.904 in a 193 PS Caterham with all the bits, on R5s. Im sure you could still shave quite a bit off.

Scratch that, just did a 0'56.371 in a bone stock Caterham (except R5s) and it was so much easier to drive. Need to work on that suspension...

0'54.917 for the modified Caterham. The car will go faster, I won't, today.

Sound like the caterham is the best choice for this.

Yeah, I know, my bad.

I would think so. But I've also tried a 83' Civic 1500 with 191 PS and got a 0'59.983

i just did it and got a 58.347 around tsukaba in a BMW 120d.it had a minor taste of turbo (stage 1 :yuck:

) semi-racing suspension, racing exhaust, all transmission upgrades ,stage 3 weight reduction, and R5's. Tuned slightly. Had roughly 193 hp. here's proof i did it
