Wouldnt say a Mk1 couldnt keep up with a Golf mate! Look at some times.
Winton is a demanding track which rewards an agressive driver is a small car.
I know a Skyline is quicker but heck anything with good suspension, brakes, tyres and a nut with his head screwed on can go places.
Why not????
If my banger turbo'd mk1 can run with low 13 sec cars incl. tuned ls1 & ls2's why couldn't it run with a mildly tuned RB20 or even a R25 six?
Ask Dom how Nicks (Doms dad) Skyline would run against my mk1!
Obviously an RB26 (GTR engine) or a 2J (toyota big banger six which is on par with the RB26) is out of the question for my setup
Also my engine is only a stocker, so it wouldn't be exactly ideal on a track, but I reckon with a good oil cooler & the boost wound down to 10-14psi, set the suspension up how I had it in my GTI with the sticky tyres, it could run with some pretty fast cars. In a perfect world you'd also add a LSD of some sorts
I think you meant a mk1 keeping up with a 6 banger & turbo but anyway,
I'm with you on this James.
I was lapping the exact times at Symmonds Plains which is a fair old power circuit in my banger engined GTI against an E46 M3 (probably more to do with the M3 driver though!) & was also able to run against an E30 in straight line drag race out of the horseshoe corkscrew turn up the back straight & also out brake & out maneuver him too!
Never underestimate what you can do in a simply setup mk1!

you obviously cant read
anyways, tims mk1, its ****ing quick! as in, itll smash dads skyline quick, any day under any conditions, and i can skate the skyline pretty well in 2nd gear accross 3 lanes for about 80mtrs, imagine getting that power down and still having some turbo'd mk1 smash that!
if i were to bring the skyline, id try to be no where near tim on the track haha
