Intercooler and radiator templates have been made along with mounts. with a GTX 42R on order and work beginning on the dry sump setup things are getting exciting. Stay tuned over the next couple of months as things really start heating up

WTAC Wrap Up




Well the 2011 WTAC has been and gone with some astonishing results. the outright victory went to the Cyber Team with a 1:28, which was 2 seconds faster than last years already lightning time. they were followed closely by the US team Sierra Sierra, with a 1:29, Garage Revolution finished up the top 3 with a 1:30 in their FD RX7. The Open class was just as impressive with the top spot taken by Nik Kalis in his Evo IX with a time of 1:34, which would have sat him very high in last years Pro Class. Topping the Clubsprint class with a time of 1:42 was Marek in his R35 GTR. The event was action back with plenty to see and lots a mayhem in the pits. full results can be found at, www.superlap.com.au To check out more pics form the event head over to a our flickr page, www.flickr.com/photos/ultimate_tunes/
