My mate Brendan who flew in from Perth.

This morning I woke up foggy headed from last night’s attempt to keep up with Christina’s young friends. It was pissing down rain outside which was bad news for Superlap! I logged on the JDMST and reports were that it wasn’t raining out at Eastern Creek so Suga and I made our way there.

In the car on the way I was feeling pretty crappy (I’ve got no-one to blame but myself for drinking too much last night!). Once we got in there I needed to go to the toilet but we ran into so many people that it took me an hour before I finally got to go lol.

The weather held out (was chilly though). I got to catch up with a lot of mates and the amount of top spec machinery there was insane. I can’t help but wish that this event happened a few years ago when I was building the GT-R. I always wanted to have huge carbon diffusers and wings on my car but I didn’t go there in fear that people would laugh at me. Having a time attack event like this means you can go all out on the aero, all of a sudden there’s justification.

I’m so happy for the guys who did manage to put a car together to compete in the event. Some of these “backyard” jobs have walked away with insane times (half of it’s the car, the other half of it is that the gun drivers have big balls!) and it’s only going to get harder to impress each year from now so good on them for getting in there early.
