How the hell does that thing weigh 1200kg? My 1J Soarer track car weighs over 1400kg.

What lap times did you do at Wakey?

[gav52l]

@MrBen12a Yeah 1230 kgs without driver after taking it over the weighbridge. We took it out to wakefield and using a gps based lap timer on the iphone got several 1:10 to 1:14's and providing the lap timer was accurate a best of 1:06:07, but ill reserve my bragging rights untill I can verify that one lol. On the day we were out with a race prepped R32 GTR, it could get away on the corners but man it couldnt pull away from us on any of the straights.

Yeah prob weighs 1230kgs cause it dont have a roll cage by the looks of it, and the iphone app dont work that well ( I tryed it aswell as the official timming ). The R32 GTR is around 1430kgs, not that I like Skylines anyway.

..... it just doesnt sound right lol...

I ran 109.9 at Wakefield on the official timing. I use Racechrono as a GPS based lap timer and it is accurate to about 1/100 of a second compared to the dorian based official timing they use up here in Darwin. I haven't been to Wakey with my big brakes, cage etc, but if I get back down there I'd like to think I'd beat that time. If you pulled a 1:06 I'd be pretty impressed. I know how hard I worked to pull 1:09.

how much did it cost to build this? i have a 1jzgte powerd supra and its heavy as 1600 kilos with half a tank, and it still dose low 14 second quatermiles on stock everything this thing would kick ass
