Gaz Walker Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 The Soops got any chance at all at winning this year then? Personally I think we'll be 2nd or third. I can't see anyone beating the GTR regsiter unless half of them breakdown. The MLR is pretty hot in the disciplines too. No I'm not being a pesimist either! Gaz.

Markie Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Why do you think the Skylines will be able to beat the supra's then? Is it all down to the AWD or they just faster vehicles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 partly due to the strip itself maybe? the GTRs launch a lot better than the surpas, i wouldn't say they're faster at all, just that the high powered supras are havin a lot of problems gettin away from the line at the scooby shootout, a lot of the GTRs didn't have any issues in gettin away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Hearing that makes me want to swap for a Skyline now dont forget the gtr seems a bit more fragile. they seem a great all round car. just have to see the CRD supra go when it gets everything right. :blahblah: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 plus i don't really care if the supes not as quick down a strip as a GTR, supe would take a GTR on a motorway from 60-70ish wouldn't it? plus the supes just prettier i still LOVE GTRs too though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Walker Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Both cars are great just in different respects. Also the difference between the costs of the cars and mods amazing. The GTR team will have probably half a million quid in mods on there cars combined, whereas we probably have a quarter of that. And haven't blown any engines or gearboxes yet Gaz.

Ian C Posted July 14, 2005 Author Share Posted July 14, 2005 Yeah, it's just £££s at the end of the day The CRD Supra is absolutely hatstand btw, saw it running last year Oh, and lest ye forget, last year's drag final - although Ron Kidell's stripped-out drag skyline got a better launch, Dude's daily driver was *reeling him in*. Just ran out of 1/4mile, that's all -Ian PS oh yeah, and ticket blagging is now closed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 when we hearing about paying for tickets £12.50 sounds a good price for pre booking. there not long to go. they say on website that they send tickets out 2 weeks before the 31st july day of event any info thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 we are still sorting out the deal with TOTB to get them shipped out directly to people so we dont add a delay in to the process. We will expect people to pay for their tickets via PayPal to limit the delays involved in this so if anybody thinks they cant pay via paypal please say so now.

Branners Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 still in discussion with the TOTB people. We have agreed they will ship the tickets out for us, we just have to work out how to get the money to them asap. Once we get the go-ahead on this those wanting to pay will need to get a wriggle on.
