you are on the edge already, i cannot find any mistake on 10-12 minute on the video...It was brilliant driving.... to get another few tenth is not easy, given that you push that hard already.. unless you do something else to the car or tyre. I guess

There are two main corners I need to work on. The first one is the one leading onto the back straight; I hit the apex abit too early and don't use the end of the corner enough. The second is the corner exiting the last clevage in the back section, similar deal. I did adjust one main line: through the sweeper I'm now doing that corner as a double apex - far cleaner line for me. I used to run wide and go in fast but would mess the exit. Now, it's around a 140-145k entry with no brakes and hitting apex 1, run wide, hit apex 2 and fire out. Works well!

1.40!!! O_O

lol Duy, here's what the other Chaser guys' managed on the day:

Adam 1:42.0

Simon 1:45.0

Winston 1:46.5

Benrys 1:49.6 (JZX110)

Thanks Justin, you wouldn't be wrong with the power equation. I think if she had about 20-30rwkw more, all in the mid range - I'd see a 38. All, if not most of the cars doing mid to high 30's are well under 1400kg or have some decent power to them. At 200rwkw and 1550kg + driver, she's alot of mass to move!

As for the entertaining part; here's the outside footage of me catching Adam haha

With another track day coming up on Tuesday, it was time to get the car sorted; a trusty member from these forums was able to loan me some wheels that had been in storage for quite some time and this is the result;

30rwtg0.jpg

That's with my 245 sized semi's fitted so there's a fair amount of scrubbing which I was expecting. The upside is, they are rediculously light! The CE28N's measure 18x9.5 (+22) all 'round and even with the 245/40 sized tyre, it's still a few kilo's lighter than my front 18x8.5 Work CR's with 235/40 tyres. Imagine the rears! I had them filled with Nitrogen as well while at the tyre shop only because it was available :P

Guards will get rolled and pulled tomorrow along with the usual service (oil/filter/plugs) before the track day. I was contemplating about going with a new/smaller battery through work but we'll see. There's still two corners I need to sort out at Winton which should see a '39 if I don't screw up but right now it's the weather that dictates anything. Forecast is for high 20's, numerous showers, mostly cloudy and epic skids. Should be good either way!

Carsales link: 1999 TOYOTA CHASER TOURER V JZX100 Sedan Private Cars For Sale in VIC - carsales.com.au

Asking $19,500 for a well rounded package with some money spent, I'm not in a hurry to sell so no need for low balling. Definitely no test pilots or tyre-kickers. Would like to see it go to someone from the boards :)

If this doesn't sell in the next 10 months I'll buy it :D Gotta behave until fulls -.-

Good luck with the sale, one of the cleanest Chasers going around these days :)

haha thanks guys!

I've been reluctant to sell it and only put it on the forums yesterday; of which an interstate buyer has expressed interest and may come down to view it - if he doesn't, YES more driving! Oh and a friend linked me to a photo of the car taken some time back at a car meet
