Oran Park South and Eastern Creek
What sort of lap times are people getting from their VW's around here? I'm curious as to how they compare to other cars.
If it aint broke,
Make it go faster!!

CT & I are doing 55.8 & 55.9 at Oran Park south & identical 2.03 flat for Eastern Creek, this is on street tyres & full street
registered cars.
Far from the quickest numbers & there are plenty of quicker drivers & cars out there but we still have fun
regards
Jak
Congratulations to Ben Durie for breaking the hillclimb record at Ringwood in his stroker beetle!

Yeh Dave, he did a 2.08 for Eastern Creek but I think that u said that was with 2 people in the car (navigator) & Rudy has done a 1:56 I think for
Eastern Creek, curved windscreen would be fantastic for that track

Update Rudy just posted 1:54 at Eastern Creek last Friday 13 feb and I think you guys need to do some research there is a guy Paul Zanello who has
posted 1:50 in 69 beetle with full metal body and full rollcage on semi street tyres. Rudy last time at Oran Park South was :50.5
Jak you guys should come to the state rounds this year it is much cheaper to run more support as there could be up to seven vws running if you and CT
can along and you would be running in much more equal class. Come along and the vws will be a force.

Everyone knows about the legend Paul Zanello Retro, he did a 50 around Oran years ago, so did Richard Hozlz in a full metal & registered street
car, driven to & from the track!
I did the group 7 thing for a few years so don't try & tell about more 'equal' groups.
Having a bunch of MX5 owners protest cause u beat them in a VW, having your trophy taken away because I had non-factory bodywork (the rear wing), I
didn't know MX5's come with full roll cages, slicks & avgas in the tank??...
No thanks, its the Porsche club for me, we just have a Sunday drive, doesn't matter what modifications are done to the car because no-one cares
there. The Porsche guys are in the same vote, they just want a drive on the track, thats the best attitude for me & the organisational skills of
the club are outstanding compared to anywhere else.
Theres also little chance of rubbing door handles with anyone, let alone someone in a datsun 120Y
I'm quite happy to pay the extra fee & be surrounded by porsches all day, depends what your kiks are I guess.
regards
Jak

Yeah, I'm with Jak and CT. I much prefer cruisy club days with a vast variety of vehicles having a good time. If I was to do anymore, I'd
buy a race car, get my FIA license and do it full on, but thats a no can do for me. So I'll have fun spending a cruisy sunday with a bunch of
other racing enthusiasts.

"Dak to the Past" was doing 50's around Oran Park & high 50's around Amaroo in a street registered car with no slicks whilst u
were driving in the bush & I was still in nappies.
I've got 3 hours video footage of Richard leading a pack of v8 & rotary sport sedans around Oran & Amaroo park. It also has Paul Zanello
doing the same in the class below that Richard ran.
It looks quite funny seeing a beelte leading the pack with number plates on.
The reason most people don't know any of this is because Richard doesn't walk around with his results on his sleeve, no matter how
impressive they are.
What a legend:thumb

Cool, so what car was it ?
Love to see a copy of the video, you never get tired of watching car racing :thumb
The only time I've seen Richard race was the same year you watched me at Amaroo. He was in a yellow bug with a 2007cc doing 63's or
62's, not his car though !

The car was a an oval setup similar to CT's, full glass windows, daily driver etc etc, even won the Gene Berg trophy one year as well as having a
baby seat capsule in the back during the working week.
2332cc, IDA's , k-8 etc, 142hp @ the wheels. revved to 8200rpm. go the stroke!
That yellow aero looker was Jergo's, even with only 80hp @ the wheels , Richard got it down to 60 seconds at Amaroo with slicks, not too bad
apparently, for a street car.
Congratulations to Ben Durie for breaking the hillclimb record at Ringwood in his stroker beetle!

That's fantastic:thumb Richard should have no problems getting Alex's and Deiters cars producing the same times.
So we should see 50sec oran park runs easily, especially with the compounds used in the road tyres compared to 15years ago and the cars being the
same/similar.
And 142hp from the 2332cc, this is what Paul will be getting from his V force motor :thumb
Richard should be able to get 120hp no probs then from your motor, with his experience.
So we should see some good action on the track then.
Maybe Richard could have a drive ?
P.S Only 80hp from a twin carbed over 2lt ??? what's the go ?

just depends what u get impressed by a guess, both times were many years apart remember. Things change.
I suppose if u can get 100hp at the wheels with some kadrons, a big bore kit & a 284Duration cam with 360thou lift, 142 for a 48ida 2332cc is
possible back in the old days huh Craig....?

Yeah, thanks Jak. I always value your opinion.
Unlike you, I will always stand behing what I put on this forum. If I think something is inappropriate I won't put it up here in the first
place!
I went back to the tech section and all I could find was truncated threads - posts missing all over the place.

Just wondering why you guys are the only ones to hear or see that Richard run those times surely it would of been big news around the vw scene. Last
time I spoke to Richard he told me that Rudy had just set the bench mark and would be hard to catch, ( correction Rudy's time ORAN PARK SOUTH
50.05 not 50.5).
What I don't understand if your impressed with what times Richard has run and therefore praise the products he uses (THE STROKER) then you should
be very impressed with what Rudy is doing and the products that he is using it is only logical.
And I was very genuine wanting you guys at the state rounds (GROUP 7 HAS IMPLODED) Why would you want to go to the Porsche Club days and get your
arse smacked and pay twice as much, as the State rounds. I suppose it is ok to say "I GOT BEATEN BUT IT WAS A PORSCHE" but when you have to
say " I GOT BEATEN BY A 120Y NOW THAT IS SHAME." :P:thumb
