Madden - yeah you need to get it out and take it for a drive and you'll soon find the love again.... with the loudness and trackdays it's not really a problem as you could always get a cheap second hand hks silent power... a few have sold for £200 recently.. I'm thinking of doing the same with the goose.. going to brands on the 15th for a 'novice' day and will try to blag my way on.. they've banned me from novice days in the past but it's a 'new' car so hope they'll be persuaded
crossing everything it'll pass the noise test without the silencer! If it's nice weather on the 16th I'll be dressing the goose in drag at santa pod lol!! Fancy dusting off your beast and showing me how it's done?? ![]() R4VENS - ha that was when Goosey was still in Japan.... Still can't believe it's migrated all this way and ended up in my garage... didn't know gooses could fly!!

Naughty Goosey
![]() ![]() YouTube - 00002 Just had a good day at Santa Pod... Weather was shit most of the day but still managed to get 5 runs. Best time was 12.8 @112 which wasn't too bad given the conditions... Apparently there was a bad headwind (it felt very windy to me!) and the clutch just wouldn't hold a decent launch. It was fine taking it easy off the line and thankfully seemed fine on the motorway in 5th ![]() Taking the best 60ft time would make 12.5 sec... Still quite a slow time for a Skyline but the Goose did well! - an evo9 with 2bar + apparently 480bhp could only manage 13.3 @104 i think. Trackday next fingers crossed ........Might go to Brands in a couple of weeks... Need to change the exhaust though ![]() ![]() Offers anyone?

Bad thought!! I think the clutch that's in there will be fine for trackdays but just won't take the abuse for launching. I had a similar one in a previous car and it was the same. It's SO much nicer to use and imagine easier on the transmission compared to the on/off clutch in my last 32 so i'm tempted to keep it.. time will tell if it fails or not but i'd most likely get it re-conn'd..
I do however want to get Goose to fly down the 1/4..... mmmmmm ![]()

![]() Really struggled for grip.. The lovely yoko's that are on will be superb n track but not on the 1/4! The Goose still managed to be one of the quicker cars there (not many people turned up )..
