Buchanan Automotive Posted 21May, 2017 Report Share Posted 21May, 2017 Today , Eastern Creek ( Sydney Motorsport Part ) South Circuit , nice weather , and good track conditions , big turn out ( sold out + ) 64 cars competing in round 2 of the PCNSW Supersrpint for 2017 .Good range of this and last century Porsche's competing , but in regards to this century Porsche's there is a noticeable increase in Cayman GT4's competing which makes sense because if you were to compete at the track with a "NEW" Porsche , the Cayman GT4 is a standout , much better balance than the "this century" rear engined anything & much more forgiving and a lot cheaper than a GT3 , its a bit like a this century 944 / 951 / 968 in that regardWell today , the last century Porsche 951 ( 944 Turbo ) did very well , below is the top 10 best times in regards to Porsche's competing with road legal "R" spec tyres , meaning the cars that you and I could drive to work the next day ( As Sean does )997 GT3 Class 2 1.00 :9440996 GT3 Class 2 1.01 :8670 951 Class 1 1.01 :8880 ( Sean Buchanan 1986 951 3.0L 16v )Cayman GT4 Class 2 1.01 :9680 911RSR Rep Class 2 1.02 :2840951 Class 1 1.02 :3510 ( Mark Bloxham 1986 951 3.0L 8v )996 GT3 Class 2 1.02 :3680997 GT3 Class 2 1.02 :5080991 GT3 RS Class 1 1.02 :9340 981 CaymanS Class 4P 1.03 :0150Sean Buchanan ( 951 3.0 16v ) was just a fraction off his PB but still won class 1 & Mark Bloxham ( 951 3.0 8v ) came in 2nd in class 1 & we had another customer Chris Moriarty in his 1991 2.5 951 ( his first time at the South Circuit ) and he did a 1.04:4 , even with no LSD( the standard one is worn out ) & tall standard gearing . No accidents for the day ( thank goodness ) but a few spins from a few eager competitors ( quite normal ) but no real damage , so all in all a great day had by allMany Thanks to the volunteers who came along to help out RegardsBruce BuchananBuchanan Automotive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
