EC Lap times ???

[Turtle]

Hey Guys and Gals, Turtle here....I'm a bit of a Newcomer.....signed up a day or so ago ........What sort of lap times are you Dudes or Dudetts doin' at EC ???? And is that with Street tyres or slicks ????

Cheers. T

[daz]

Slow like the turtle

[dungbeetle]

theres a wide range on here mate. everything from guys on track bikes doiin 1.45 at ec, do people on their street bikes doin 2.10 or more....
i have a k5 600 thats track only with slicks on it. i do somewhere around 1.55...

[Rocket 1]

Somewhere around 1.44 - 1.45 if my bloody [ahem] lap timer would work consistantly.... PB 1.42


FKN quick bugger mono nice PB!! I managed a 144.4 on slicks... wasn't going to beat that because I broke the bike :lmao:

[jasonbw]

Hiya Turtle, are you planning to come to a track day soon?? By the sounds of it you can't be too slow or too fast. Besides 1000rr riders are treated as gods, given all sorts of gifts and presented with naked umbrella girls when lined up at pit lane. :)

Theres a rider training day on the 10th, not an official RATs organised event but one none the less... a few from Wollongong are going (inc me).. interested? price between $265 and $280.

[daz]

Yeah mono was having some serious issues myself the guy holding the stop watch went on holiday on the weekend it seems

[Bigdog]

Yeah it took us 2 sessions to find a suitable location. We'll be sweet next time.
BTW my PB is 1:48.07.

[daz]

Buggered if I know

Next time I'll make a point of going out and placing it somewhere good so this doesn't happen again

[_chado77]

yip there are some quick buggers around here.. :)


on me CBR600rr ive done 1.50 on it with street set up and pilot powers on and my last track day with slicks(1st time) i done a 1.48:)

[Kat00]

Was doing 1:46`s on slix before I crashed big time.
Still reluctant to get too much drive out of corners and thats where I`m losing time ATM. Done a couple of 1:51`s on the weekend and still had a ball.

[pan]

1.20, but I didn't have a timer. I was counting in my head :)

[Zee]

Hey Jase I want to catch up with Ya sometime...........A track day would be awesome (and a first for me) but remember i'm goin' OS this weekend not back till 10th so will have organise something after that ......you can hold me to it !!!

[pan]

I can't do that Zee. I have to concentrate on the corners, so I just count on the straight bits! :lmao:

[Birdman]

1.20, but I didn't have a timer. I was counting in my head :)

me too mate

i use the 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3 mississippi method, seems pretty acurate to me

[pan]

I gotta try that. I'm hoping with practice my times may improve :ayyy:

[Birdman]

yeah if i count slower i reckon i can drop my laps times by at least 10 seconds

[clarkey]

Classic Pan ...:lmao::lmao::lmao:

Looking back i no i have improved , where were we and where are we now:confused1:

This place has a lot to answer for :ayyy:

Started with a 1.53-55 now spun a few 1.46,s over my 12-16mths here

How bout you:confused1:

[bargain]

What's competitite racing times for EC out of curiosity...?

[Mono]

What's competitite racing times for EC out of curiosity...?

I'll answer that by saying that Kevin Curtain does 1:41 in the wet during a race there!

[zRoYz]

Super bike top guns are in the 1.31's at EC but anything under 1.50 your doing a fair speed.

Best I've ever had timed (externally) is 2:00 flat

[tempest161]

43's will put you at the back of superstock

[AG23]

I did 1:33s on Honda Superbike when I was 17 in 2001.

As far as a street bike goes, I've done 1:38s a few times but usually around 1:40.

Fastest street bike I've seen is Allerton on standard Blade with Supercorsa tyres and he did a 1:35.8!

[Captain]

I have no idea how I will ever take 20 odd seconds off my current lap times .... even with 'trail braking' :lmao:

:ayyy:

[Kat00]

2:30, 1:30, doesn't matter. As long as we have a good time Captain :ayyy:

[Captain]

That is certainly true mate, well said :ayyy:

[studricho]

I have a modified CBR250RR trackie running BT009 tyres, fresh engine and NSR 250 front end. My best time (hand timed) was 1.59. I had a few people timing me by hand and they said my times were very consistent.

I was pushing my hardest and I don't think I can improve unless I did a course on corning. I think I'm a little too twitching around the corners.

Some improvements could also come from some suspension mods, but where do you stop?

End of the day I have a ball on the track.

[Falco]

Nothing like having a trackie and bashin a few laps out with ya mates.

[AG23]

2:30, 1:30, doesn't matter. As long as we have a good time Captain :ayyy:

Very true. The fun I have now just testing for the AMCN and riding in the 1:40s is much more enjoyable than going like a maniac pushing yourself to the extreme to do 33s back then, which was about as fast as it got in 2001.

Whether I do 1:38 now or 1:44 or whatever I may feel like doing on the day, I have never had more fun on the bike in my life. :ayyy:

don't worry matey.. I spun a few laps in your honour :ayyy:



signing in...

Sarah: "hi wade"
Me: "umm no I'm Andrew today" :confused1: lol

[j-rad]

Have ridden EC about 6 times now since first going there Sept 07. Started at High 1:40s and have gotten down to a 1:42 flat.

GPS lap timing shows my fastest lap was nearly 2 seconds slower in Sector 2 than a slower lap I had done in that same session......gotta hook all those fast sectors together would easily crack into the 1:38-39s but anything more than that is going to be a bit harder to find....basically need more 'bum in seat' time to iron out the bike and learn the track that bit more.....

[Schtevo]

I was doing pretty consistent 1:55-56's on the FZR400 which I think is not too shabby for a 22 year old 400. The bike probably had a little more in it, but I'm not good enough to get it......

I'm still sorting the CBR600F3 (I brought it in boxes really cheap) but I'm doing just under the 2 mins on it now and it has heaps more.
