Tsukuba 1000 metre Sprint Track for the last time this year. Torque + winter cold tyres = fun!!


I went to the Tsukuba 1000 metre Sprint Track for the last time this year.

今年、最後の筑波1000での走行

My first time on this one with the new Turbo. Wow it was really good, just a shame that it was about 10 degrees colder than where my Tyres become pretty useless so couldn't get the power down at all and had to ease it round corners lol. Pretty much everyone on Summer Tyres spun out at least once (I was opposite lock twice and did a 180 once ), the guys on Dunlops were a bit  better off as were the guys on Semi Slicks, but still was a great day as usual.

タービンを買えてしてからはじめてのつくば1000.パワーの違いはけっこう分かりやすかったけど、寒すぎたタイヤのグリップは足りなかった。ほとんどの人は一回以上スピンしました(自分もww)。

I am planning one last run at the main Track on the 28th but that will depend on the weather. Not much point going all the way up there if it's snowing.

A nice clear day, but very cold with a maximum for the day of 8 and most of the day only around 5, so really way too cold for my tyres to be honest.       天気はすごく良かったのですが、正直言って、5℃は夏」タイヤには,厳しい過ぎたのですね




Nice and clean, for now.       ピカピカです、走行まえ







My friend Hiro going hard in his Evo VIII        友人ひろはエボVIIIでがんばっています.

The track was again crowded, but not near as bad as it has been so I was able to get some good runs in.       今日もやはり込んでいたのですが前ほどひどくなかったからけっこういい感じに走れました。



Well, you can't say I wasn't trying hard lol...       がんばりました!ww



 Next week I will post a lot of photographs and maybe some Video of the many other cars there on the day.



Some good video from the day, fighting grip and chasing Evo's、a fun day on my favourite Track :-D
