some TimeAttack pics and vids.....

We had both cars down at Snetterton... (towed the skyline, drove the Impreza. Not nice 500miles there, 500 miles back)

My first competative outing in the Impreza, and i think only its 3rd time on track... so still very early days. Its running 357bhp with some missfire issues, standard brakes, and ancient non adjustable teins that were on when imported.

The skyline has a fresh engine at 570bhp... by the looks of the Vids Fee was taking it easy with the car. She was a bit worried about the sump (extended) on the high kerbs and still getting used to the new triple plate clutch. Its a lot harder on the gearbox... and its standard!

Problems....

Impreza - burst a tiny coolant hose under the inlet. A bh to change, but no major issue. Blew a boost hose off in practice as a result of that pipe work being off, and most likely not tightened enough when put back.

Skyline - rad started leaking at the drain tap :/ a bloody perished rubber O ring! Easy fix but a pain to do with flat floor under front, and coolant all over the place lol

RESULTS

AK - Impreza 357bhp - fastest lap of 1:21.5 with 110.0mph crossing the start/finish speed trap. Didnt get into the final but finished Qualifying 22nd out of 40. I was only a 1 off entry.
Fee - Skyline 570bhp - fastest lap of 1:18.1 with 126.6mph crossing the start/finish speed trap. Came 11th overall in the final, 8th in her class, and 7th in the points table for the year (not bad for missing a round, and crashing at the first!)

Cracking photo's and vid's, and well done both of you. You must get a quick fright when you hit something that damn fast.

I think she obliterated the cannard, covering the Impreza and Evo behind in debris... she must have been doing near 130mph.

It didnt doo much damage, just wrecked the rubber lip on our CF splitter.

She did come into the pits asking if the front of the car was still there though LOL

Do you know if the TA officials were using their gun thing to get VMAX speeds for us down the straight? Be interesting to see the lack of speed mi ne had!

As a matter of interest, how many of you Time Attackers use any ceramic heat dissipation coatings in your cars?
