RCZ,

I beat an evo X, and was nipping at the tail of a modded R34 GTR, so no I wasnt on a sunday cruise.

Wakefield's a smaller 2.2km track with relatively slower average speeds, so you dont need to be banging the rev limiter to go fast there. Colder weather this time of year helps too.

Gumpy,
If it starts with an M its probably Marulan, its even twistier than wakefield- I doubt you'll even hit 4th gear for long there. Its not very off-friendly though as theres not much run off...be careful mate.

I was hitting ~125-130 thru the sessions, but that final 135 degrees didnt hit til ~10-15min in, which was close to the end of the session anyway. Im running redline 5w30
