Default BM - interesting old school Tsukuba battle

all cars are open tops. entries include Lotus 7/Caterham, Mazda RX7, C4 Corvette, Mazda MX5, Nissan 300ZX, Honda CRX, and Suzuki Cappucino.


why does the Nissan produce so much smoke? i dont think it's any of the wheels spinning...

Interesting, but not an exciting battle.

That smoke was very strange, it looks like engine oil smoke, but why only in the corners?

would indicate oil in g load situation getting into the lifters or not lubricating a side of the engine thus is the reason for dry sump somebody else prob knows alot more than me about it
that caterham is in a whole other league

I don't belive Nissan would do such a mistake in a Z, i have seen a lot of battles with the 300zx, and that is the only one with that problem.Maybe there is just too much oil into the engine.

It's not really a track car, a 997 isn't dry sumped and probably more trackable than the ZX
