Shaun

warm ya tyres up on the mini roundabout 200 yrds north by going round and round till they start maoning alot! set of towards booths.

get in line nice and fast load the front up and take as much outsde line as you can ...where the concrete blocks start. then feather in the throttle till the offside starts getting lighter....

If you let the back end step even slightly out - 2/3 around then forget it!...otherwise you need to be exiting 40-45miles an hour...its very hard in my car now as the rear suspension is a little tuff and rebound wants to lighten up the offside rear wheel.

That said in the dry with Falken 451\'s i can manage it.. but cant with T1S\'s???... Then once you get the line out of the roundabout watch near side ya rims on the pavement edge on exit!!... you should manage the golden figure buy the time you get under the foot bridge.Just under 2/10 of a mile me thinks.Dont think Pauls(GTR) big fat lump will manage it  :Giggle

PLEASE DO WALKING RECON MISSION FOR DIESEL ETC FIRST!!

lol. i only live round the corner, can do about 35 without taking a special line. So is *25 the magic figure ?? Should be easy to do it. Will read off pfc to get a more accurate amount. Has the Skyline tried it yet ??

It looks about 1/4mile and i can get to *10 from a standing stop !

lol. Theres a nice bypass near us with a nice straight that is basically about 1/4 mile from a large roundabout. Its a good marker to see what speed you can do as you pass under the brigde.

Some fun roads round me that are 40 and national speed limits, TBH it all should be national speed limits.
