Thanks guys, right place at right time for the frosty pass, was hoping the pass would happen on turn 9. And Lowndsy did a nice burn out for us, was a great Day for this Lownsy fan.
I had a real interesting race weekend of my own. Managed to win the Lismore Club meet. TAG Restricted Light. Here is some GoPro footage. This one is from my Pre-Final, I finished second with a narly last lap, last corner move. I'll Upload the others later.......

Yer that was epic classic move, it was the real deal somthing we'd dream of pulling off cleanly in our simworld, good drive in that one and great weekend result m8.
So your familiar with the lismore track Dougz? This was my first time there. Awesome track, Bumpy as hell in places so really physical.
I live in Lismore haha. I've been around it a few times. Yeh it is pretty rough haha. The vibrations going up the straight after the hairpin are pretty intense.
Lismore eh. I used to live around Byron, Ballina and lennox for 7-8 years odd on a John Howard surf trip. Not sure if Ive mentioned that before :/
Good one Beau! Very smooth and clearly the results followed! I went to a track day last week and pb'ed by 2.6 seconds, knew I could do it just a matter of putting a lap together. Off to Cobra Nationals this week too so fun times! [video]youtube.com/watch?v=XF2ZOAitDfI[/video]
It's a 302 Mustang engine, puts out ~330rwhp. It's my dad's car and luckily he gives me a crack at driving it. Beau, it's running a semi slick tyre at the moment (Toyo R888). Just a pretty basic "track day" style tyre really. Dave, yeah there's more in it. The Squiggly lines suggest that I can do a 1:08.8 (Optimal lap) but it's just a matter of the track conditions being right and the driver being talented enough.
A few videos from Cobra Nationals 2012. Got 3rd in the Supersprints and 3rd in the 1/8th Mile Drags... Not too bad overall. Best hotlap [video]youtube.com/watch?v=5ricHmikdkQ[/video] Fastest Supersprint run (Fastest cumulative 3 laps) [video]youtube.com/watch?v=yLsbKTJOgWM[/video] A few onboard highlights. Includes lock ups, slides, a few race cars passing and leaving me etc [video]youtube.com/watch?v=QXLeujwGCIg[/video]
Awesome stuff Mad, great to see your talents transferring to real-world results. What a tremendous opportunity. Congrats Couple of sweet saves there too!
