R32 GTR Time Attack Vic


Well the day had finally come, Inxile passed scrutineers inspection with ease and the count down to my first session of a time attack event was closing. 


Sponsor stickers attached and before i knew it 10 o'clock hit. and session 1 was under way. 
As i had not run at Winton Raceway before i was not sure what to expect and used this as a sighting run.
Lap 1 01:57.30
Lap 2 01:52.20
Lap 3 01:54.20
Lap 4 01:54.20
Lap 5 02:51.40
Lap 6 01:52.00
Lap 7 01:50.90


Session 2 brought some tyre pressure adjustments and a much more fruitful lap results.
1 01:51.80
2 01:49.70
3 01:52.10
4 01:50.20
5 01:48.90
6 01:46.70
7 01:46.60
8 01:48.50
9 01:50.40


I am fairly happy with the 1 4 6 but tyres had gone off and grip was hard to come by. This was reinforced in the post tyre check with pressures and temps very high. With the lunch break giving some much needed cool down time I took the chance to check brake linings. To my surprise the EBC reds had taken a beating and had me questioning if they would see out the day.

Session 3 I took some more pressure adjustments and went for broke.
1 01:54.50
2 01:49.60
3 01:50.10
4 01:50.00
5 01:48.50
6 01:48.40
7 01:48.10
8 01:49.90
9 01:56.00
10 01:47.90
11 01:47.20
