col666 Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 My mate timed me in the wet from the pit wall, think it was about 64 secs. Dont know if thats good or bad? Col
johns Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 In the dry, an standard UK Impreza will lap around 65 - 67 seconds. Modified/JDM versions will lap around 63 - 64 seconds. Good drivers, in well sorted cars would be around 61 - 62 seconds. The fastest I've hear of in an Impreza was about 58 seconds, but that was a very modified car running slicks. As Dougster says, lap timing is strictly forbidden at our track events. The main reason is that as soon as you start to go for better lap times with a target to beat, you start pushing the car beyond it's safe limits and are much more likely to go off and consequently hold up the event for everyone else. You'll also get frustrated/red mist if you come across slower cars during a lap which hold you up a bit. John
st3ph3n Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 58 is damn quick if I'm not mistaken. I was up in July watching the Superkarts going round, as well as legends and Radicals, and the fastest they had was a 53. Which was scarily quick.
scientific steve Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 the track day we had in june i was able to get a 63.3 and this was timed with me mates camcorder just left the thing set up and taped me going round and round, only thought about lap times after seeing the counter at the bottom of the screen to say i was chuffed is an understatement
johns Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 John, it was Mark Whalley's STi Type R, about 4 -5 years ago. He was running about 450bhp at the time, on Proflex suspension, magnesium lower suspension arms, steel internals running about 2.0 bar boost on race fuel, AP 6 pots, and nice sticky slicks. I'm sure that your latest weapon would seriously threaten that though - you'll have to give it a try some time John
