FTO GPX vs JZA80 Supra

This was the second stint of our 1 hour endurance race at Eastern Creek in May, 2010. I've just left pit lane after my compulsory pit stop and noticed John Ballard's Supra coming round turn 1. This car is normally 5 to 10 seconds per lap faster than my car, so I expected him to pass me pretty quickly. So I was surprised to find that I was maintaining my position around the back of the circuit. He would leave me for dead on the straights but I'd catch him up again in the corners. In John's defence though his tyres had gone off and he was battling with rear grip... but then again I started the race with old tyres anyway ;) It was a lot of fun chasing him down in the corners. I was trying to force a mistake but I don't think John was paying too much attention to me lol! Enjoy :)
