    Default IPRA AE86's

    We know Chris O has had much success in his trusty Levin GT in QLD IPRA for many years. Maybe he can add some pics and vids from his recent outing at Bathurst for the WPS 12hr Shannons Nationals Round? Awesome to see AE86 going up Skyline and through The Cutting again!

    Anyway thought I'd throw up some pics of Chris Brown in action at Mallala.
    mmm flames out the side pipe. and night shot shows 'Lala is hard on brakes.

    theres also the yager built one that im pretty sure KE25 racer just bought. runs a built BEAMS.

    i entertain the thought of one day building an IP 86. but im still not convinced a ke couldnt be a better option.

    lighter, stiffer and i dont know the speeds IP dudes run at that the aero would make any difference?

    still we should probably keep that debate out of this thread corollas are clearly an awesome choice for an IP car.

    i think you could build a fairly simple motor and maybe be on pace, especially seeing as chris has moved on from the 1600cc class.

    a carefully assembled tall block black top with just some sizable cams could be on pace i reckon.

    Hi All, been a fair while since ive been on here… pretty much left it all when the boards changed over.

    Just a quick post to share some video's and a few pics from the recent Bathurst 12hour event where Improved Production managed to get a go as a support category.










    Qual Session part 1
    Qual Session part 2

    We made a diff change after the qual session and found another 10k top end down Conrod.. she was maxed out in 5th 9200 228k...

    I had an absolute blast... and cant wait to go back in 2010 if IPRA get another invite

    thanks to Clemmo for letting me know that people were keen to see vids & pics from Bathurst


    Regards
    Chris O

    Thanks for the input Chris! quick side question: was your car previously owned by Stephen Toth? like in the early 90's - curious because livery looked identical to yours in the early days (TTA style) and the number was also #61.

    Hi Mate, no the car was built up from scratch 11 years ago by me.

    Yes it started life in TTA Colours. I built it up to be a replica initially

    Steve's is still in his shed sitting pretty. Be nice to see that one when its done
