Guys as we all know the GTO boys have always looked at our cars with envy :) Anyway there are some good guys in their community and I have been discussing ten of the best with a few of them and I have challenged them to a team competition. Yes there will be some big power cars but mostly it will be normal guys with a few mods looking to have a bit of fun. We are thinking a maximum of 8 entries per team to count to the points and we feel that to help it work we will allow Saturday times to count on the 1/4 and top speed run. This means if you only want to do boot camp you will still be part of the team (not handling as the course changes each day).

 

We are also thinking each entry to donate £10 into the pot and the winning team gets all the money for the charity of their choice. There is also optional £5 head to head pairs if anyone wants it but we will need to clarify fully later. The GTOOC charity is 'justgiving' and we can choose ours if this forum doesn't currently support one. For myself I already support help for heroes but am happy to go along with the rest.

 

I will share this on my facebook page and will keep the page updated with details.

 

Have a good think about this guys it's an opportunity to try your hand at 3 disciplines for very little money and see which of our cars is the best all rounder. I often see people suggesting that the zed gets very little respect from the rest of the community and this is a chance to show them how good this car can be. I really do think it will be a great weekend if we can get a decent team together. Yes I will be focussing on doing well but this will help to make it fun as well.

 

I will be there for the full weekend and can sort out details with Dave Naxton. I would truly like this to work and am more than happy to arrange the event however I would not be able to provide much support on the day. I think we could set up a team area to compete with the best so I am confident we can make it a brilliant weekend.

 

Yes it's early but can you start thinking about it now and any feedback/offers of help/entries will be appreciated.

Ps once you get the power down for the rest of the run, your qtr terminals and et will continue to improve, there's at least another 10mph to find in your terminal speed with that power

Bob you did great full stop

 

Bob, you did really well. And with a 1.6ish 60ft that's excellent

 

Im glad you guys have both posted your comments.

I got tired telling him the same thing Sunday night over a beer.

Perhaps he will believe it now

It's all trial and error I guess. You have achieved already what most of us can't, you've turned that old Datsun into something that would cost a mortgage to beat with a new stock car.

 

Does your mate with the GTO live in Basingstoke? A chap I know that runs a lighting company was going on about his mates GTO having had lots of work etc. Think he has a caterham.

No he lives near Guildford. The guy he sold his Porche too also turned up and managed a better quarter so that was quite funny :)

Oh that's a kick in the sack!

I must also give a big up to the GTO boys and Eurospec who took their beating in good heart.

 

And this what a 300ZX looks like with a few trophies sat on it :)

Nice work folks.....!!!

A bit belated but we'll done bob, and all other Z,s who turned up to compete or support. What you've achieved in that white demon bob is amazing. And like has. Been said, there's still more to come. Role on next year that's what I say. I'll be doing a full weekend, with hopefully a quaffe diff, lighter seats, better tyres and a remap. Obviously I'm not selling up anymore.

Cheers

Danny

No reason why you cant join in. I have set some base times for an NA this year which will give you something to aim at.

I will take part next year .

It doesnt matter what car you enter in so long as its mechanically sound.:yes:

When I lined up against Simon Norris he didnt come over and say "hoy mate you cant run that NA against me":lol:

He would be far to busy getting his own stuff done:thumbup1:

I think I'm going to spend the next 360ish days preparing for TOTB 2015 just so I can get there on time.
