The sr box can handle 300kw bud so yeah. Jody reserved it for more 'experienced/advanced' drivers and was R1900.

Yeah we only used turn 5, there was short circuit racing so it was the only corner available.

I probably will keep to the 21r and build the sr box for the 14, os giken kit would be nice :)

Yep the os would be nice. When i had my R33 i had Ferobrake build me a custom double diaphram button blutch. it was hell driving in traffic but boy could that thing connect. and all for the price of R1200 but that was about 5 years ago.lol i have a rebuilt clutch in at the moment looks std but with better material .Ghateem that drives the yell escort built it. its holding up pretty nicely.
ok not all of us could have afforded the R1900 but to the lucky ones im sure it was well worth it. im hopping alot more track time would be made available to the guys so we can gain that experience and get to the point were we making head way, personally i ploued many of the grass patches on all sections of the oval ,even touched the tires onece hehehehehehe.

If you don't go off you not trying hard enough.

Don't worry, we are all working hard to get regular track time but you can be guaranteed that we will always be drifting on street to strip days/nights
