Ran on Sunday 10/7/16 Ringwood hillclimb on the A2 (state round) configuration - dry conditions, in road registered type 1 over 2.5L class. Had made a few suspension updates and ended up doing a 44.84s which was 1st in class. I managed to beat the old class record which had been set 2 years ago by an Opel Corsa OPC by a tenth so pretty stoked with that.

Kudos Sean, that is a smashing time.

Should see what Alan and Ben are doing, just WOW. Realistically, I think the car is capable of low 62's, perhaps 61's. But I need some suspension tweaks to get me there. Just not getting that perfect lap yet. 4 of the 6 sectors were bang on the money, but too much spin exiting hungry and hesitating on turn 6 onto the straight.
Alan did a 58.7, Ben 59.4. Phenomenal pace.

I was going to say that realistically you are looking at a perfect lap of low 62's or high 61's.
To get sub 60 second laps like Alan and Ben is just phenominal but requires a whole extra level of dedication.

7/8/2016 State Hillclimb Championship - Ringwood A2 track configuration - road reg type 1 over 2.5L class - 2nd place.
bettered my PB from 44.84 to 44.62

it shows the overall time sheet and then the class/car breakdowns. Th first row is the 20ft time, the second row is middle sector and last row is final time. Each column is your 5 runs.
My quickest 20ft time was 4.78 sec I think. This was slightly uphill and around a little kink when you're in first. Can anyone tell me how that compares to strip 20ft times for r spec open diff polo's?
