Really good going for a manual GR Seb!

Colm - you gotta get that baby into the 14's - a manual GPX is well capable of 14's.

thank's Shane.


we left 3 cars from my gaf a DC2 Si , Colm's GPX and my GR

interesting bit is that my car has standard exhaust , standard airbox and the only modded thing that could affect the drag were the lowering springs.

i had stripped the car (back seat,pass seat,spare wheel) and took of the spoiler + raced on standard 16's on the front.

Colm's car was striped as well and he has the quad cat-back and ARC induction + lowered susp.

My mate's DC2 has Mugen catback + mugen induction kit , d2 suspension and car was also stripped

our times were very close
best time Dc2 : 15.40
best time Gpx: 15.34
best time Gr : 15.43

we were in the 15.30 bracket Class which was something like this:

1.Gpx
2.civic type r
3.integra dc2 type r
4.integra DA
5.integra dc2 Si
6. GR
7..


my mate's dc2 had the same time with the DA but better speed so first 4 went to the finals , where he ended up racing Colm.

Very good indeed..

I'm surprised to see a 5.7l Cobra Kit-Car in the same group..
Hopefully we'll all get a few chances over the next year to practise..

Would be great if we could assemble a "crack team" and whoop some tail-end in the site battle ;-)

(Yes I know the "other team" have evos, skylines and what not..but lets just go with the dream here guys :-) )
