it was £1400 or so for the full series... 200+vat for each event.

TV coverage will be more biased towards the Pro cars as they pay more, and are generally better :lol:

No licence, but you do need race suit, gloves, boots, FIA seat/belts.

Control tyres have been introduced this year too. 888's, or just any Toyo actually.

A sponsor paid our fee's :D

What does the time attack series cost you to enter?

£1000 entry cost for what? all events?

Do you have to pay more each time you turn up at a track?

That's good value if that £1000 enters you for all 6 events or whatever.

obviously you have massive costs in prep, tyres, maitenance and repairs etc... but for entry fee's alone that's pretty cheap (for a televised event)

does it require a racing license to enter?

(not that I'm going to be entering hah) it's just curious about it.

Maybe one day I'll have the money to build a cool race worthy car and I'd be looking for a series to race in.

Not yet, the list of things to do is long and endless...

TBH a cage improvement is a season end job.... too late for this year.
I wanted to buy another R32 to work on (shell wise, cage etc) to get a cracking base car, light as hell etc... then just transfer over the running gear/engine etc once its ready

posted on 16th Feb 08 at 19:17

there wont be 200+ :lol:

prob around 70 in club class.... 30 or so in Pro

The time from the heats decide the 'super battle'.... The final X cars go into the super battle which is a 20min session.... so its like the Pro was last year

Will look like this(except different wheels and the time attack stickers) untill the bodykit and re-spray some time before net season.

200sx s14, currently 430bhp-ish my boss's mate Pete is driving for our garage.
we still have abit of work to do yet, carbon doors,bonnet, re-wire, its going for full custom cage in 2 weeks, fit seats etc. will be ready in time though.
We dont know what to think about how the Timeattack is going to be this year with 200+ being accepted. Most probably its going to be chaos, and with your best time of all day being accepted everyones going to be flat out all day, instead of just the flying laps, so could be very conjested.

Bren is entering in Time Attack this year, and the Apex 200's will be there again so there will be 3 Apex cars:lol:


AK

posted on 16th Feb 08 at 18:22

Apex, but stickers are Ksport

What are you entering?

posted on 16th Feb 08 at 17:10

ksport the actual company from japan? Or through Bren at apex performance? Racking up the sponsors eh :lol: We are just sponsored by ourselves at the minute. The car nearly ready for the season, i cant wait, was awesome last year.
