TheTurtleshead Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) A selection of pics, I have more but I don't want to spoil some of the shots that were taken today. Dan managed to take some great pictures, so here's a little preview/some crap phone pics I took that won't give away much… All in all great day, Dan from JP is a top bloke and the feature should be entertaining…. Quite a lot of my day was spent going sideways on a greasy Brunters surface… it was ace. I am actually playing the villain of the piece, with the stock-power TT6… Pics- Mark aka Pulley: Performing one of the many steps in the Bruntingthorpe "Warm-Up Dance"… It was COLD! David Gilmour of Pink Floyd fame.. popped over to look at the Supra's… Oh wait it's just his doppleganger DaveP.

Poshmalc Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Shame, the V8 was the other viable option, 1JZ transplant probs should have been included too come to think of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) My favourite corner for a bit of action was the one in the shade, much to the terror of Dan. Here's a couple more pics and a video clip of Pulley pulling off in his 750! bhp N/A-T. A great day out, here's a link to more, discreted in members chat. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?300543-Naughty-pics-of-a-quot-Dirty-quot-Jag Edited December 12, 2013 by David P (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulley Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Wish I'd gone round the track a bit more now, was so much fun drifting sideways round the bottom corner, alongside turtleshead who was totally sideways aswell, must admit that green supra is so beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic moments and no camera's, but that's what that place is all about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 You should've and I would have switched my transmission into race-mode, same as the Jag, I didn't use it for my launches because of the poor traction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only able to use full throttle in 6th when I was launching, I think if I'd had turtleshead's rear tyres I'd have gotten more power down My 0-60 and 0-100 time wasn't too bad even with wheelspin Yours was much smoother than the manuals, probably had the advantage getting the power down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the vast power difference I was spinning in 1st and feathering in 2nd and 3rd… The surface there is just crap, and Dave was the only one sensible enough to be running winter tyres…!
