    Five Zeds in action today at the Nissan Sports car Club track day at Wakefield park,
    Good day, good weather, slippery track, fun for all, who competed,
    Highlight for me was Michael (Mijake) low 1.08 lap, to my knowledge that would make him the fastest street Zed around there, knocking off Fleet and Zx2nv's 1.09's, looks like full slicks are the go.:)

    Yes I fell into the trap of cold track, old and cold tyres, spun off on the first lap and boofed the front of it as the splitter hit a small dirt bank. Andrew Hawkins from Motive DVD and his video crew were there, doing a video shoot of the car. They had about eight cameras on the car. After the off, Andrew & John Boston, Procky, Boki all helped sort of re-fit the trim down front bar after it was all damaged. So ran the car with no splitter and no under tray. Also found out this morning why it was running rough and blowing flames, map sensor hose had a split in it, probably from the accident. John Boston still managed to do 1:023 in it and hit top speed down the straight of 218.09 Km/h.

    Very good time Michael, yes you have the record for a registered zed.

    Still a good day ::) and good times

    So what your saying John is a procky is always handy to have around?!
    Add a Boston, a Hawkins and a Boki and instant pit crew haha

    Glad you sorted the dragon breath issue out, I didn't even think to check the map hose was more concerned with intercooler connections and breather ;p haha

    That is a kick arse time In a street zed! =O

    So what this is telling me is? I need some UAS suspension overhauling , the brembo's, and some fat Michelin slicks? ;p

    Was a great day! Good weather however track was very unpredicatble in the morning.

    Good to see more zeds this time.

    Thanks Wiz, good photos and I was over the moon with my results!!

    Final time was infact 1.07.96. Managed it on the last session, you had left aleady.

    This goes to show you can get a 2 seater to go fast!

    Still plenty of things to iron out on the car though, cant wait till next trackday

    John, your car is insanely fast!!!

    Wiz and mine arent slow for street cars however, when Bosso passed me on the straight, i felt like i was standing still :eek:

    I must have put too much pressure on him, he spun out in front of me on horse shoe:p
    Exellent time for the slot car considering all the issues you had on the day.

    Hmm 2 seater too, wow, good. What power, tyres and suspension does it have? + an engineer owner helps.

    That is a really good time, what tyres were you running?
    Can I ask what sort of power yours is putting out at the wheels?

    300rwkw for track, pirelli 265 slicks on the front, michellin 300 slicks on the rear. Got the tyres for peanuts off ebay. I think they are softs, came off a supersprint car. Bilstein coilovers, all rubber & urethane suspension arms. Still my daily driver so car needs to be comfortable.

    Yeah I also spung on the first session out. So embarrassng especially after giving advice to new comers in the morning about being careful on first lap.

    I kid you not, first corner out of pits, took at 40kph and did a slow motion pirouette!!!!

    Yep been there done that lol!

    I figured you might have been on slicks for that time. Still it's a very good time for a streeted zed.

    Do you have any incar vids of your faster laps?

    Damn Michael

    That's an bloody awesome time, well done.:eek:
    Can't believe slicks are worth 3 seconds a lap, should have stole them off you to have a go.
    Be good to see you out there Procky, get yourself out of the talk it up club and come join the action Zedders,
    Warning, limited track days where you are allowed to use slicks though.
