Big Thank You to: Armour Motorsport, Race Motorbodies, Selectmaz, Intune Mechanical, Riddo's Run, Evolution Motorsport and Liquid Clothing co.
Thank You to: Phil Armour, Justin McMahon, Nick Lenthall, Dan Ridley and Roy Anderson for their help over the weekend.
Fantastic run! You guys race close and clean! Great seeing the old Mazdas beating up on all that newer hardware. Long live the Wankel!
Oh right Hail Wankel
Now this is what I want to see a fb rx-7 racing with a very nice sounding rotary engine, one of the best sounding rotaries I’ve ever heard, also the skill behind the wheel. It’s just what I wanted to watch right now
This guy has some talent, and balls. Thank you for sharing and entertainment.
Thanks, Charlie! Glad you enjoyed it
No one can make a rotor go as good as Selectmaz
That got my adrenalin going! Those early RX7's are not easy to drive on the limit. My street series 3 was prone to snap oversteer. Massive balls right there!
Classy wave at 11:33! I haven't enjoyed Motorsport like this in a while. Thanks Lenthall for that drive
Flames @ 12:00!
True rotary racing!
Loved it!
Very well driven, nice to see someone who knows how to heel and toe. Car looks very nice inside too, nicely painted and nice centre console with switches etc, and it's obviously set up properly because it handles and brakes well. Keep up the great work and enjoy your racing.
Awesome video, great clean racing. Amazing sound. You were mighty across Skyline and into the Esses compared to basically everyone.
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
Fantastic drive Joseph, pressing on very hard over the top. Great viewing. Thanks for sharing.
Put this on the big screen and volume 11. Helluva ride-along!!
Thanks, mate!
12:28 was a tight squeeze!
This is a machine. Gotta love it.
the flames coming from that white 1st series rx7 were immense! :O
good work. kicking ass and taking names
Awesome drive, felt like I was in the driver seat
This is brutal.
Wow this Rx7 and driver kick some arse.
最高の走りだった‼️
感動をありがとう‼️👍
Great to see some nice & clean racing through the field. Thanks for sharing :)
Drove the pants off it, top drive...
Haha this race reminds me like a video game. Starting from the back versus so much slower drivers :D Nice driving man!
+Zsolti000 real racing 3 perhaps? :)
This is top notch driving!
no miss fires. Clean
Beautiful to watch.
Nice one Joseph........We were there at Sullmans watching....awesome to see this incar.....you owned that black Commonwhore after he drove through the pink Beemer ...lol
Great drive and awesome speed over the top and some gutsy overtakes!
unbeliveable drive Sir! Factory team for you!!!
great footage, the whole lot was entertaining, im jealous of your weekend job :)
Finally! Someone who slows down properly for a yellow. Good Guy Racer.
Also, when did rotaries start honkin like that? Jeez
Awesome run. Love the sound of that PP N/A. Looked a bit scary up top when the yellows are waving because vision is almost nothing! Good job keeping it clean, that was a busy one...
Was this a handicap race for you, or did you not do qualifying.
Great car and great driving. Loved it.
Thanks, mate. Had an issue in the previous race, so started from the back of the grid.
What a tidy race car
This would be interesting on the Nurburgring. You should go there and record a few laps 😁
What a drive!! Well done!!
Still watching, still loving it 😂
Thank you! Me too! 😂
I know you have given me all the power she’s got Scotty is there anymore.🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
The early 7s handle so well , really well balanced cars with a very tunable engine
Ps fantastic driving 😁😁😁
Sounds like it's geared just perfectly for the conrod. Very top of 6th. Love it
Top of 5th, but yes, all the revs! Glad you liked it!
@@josephlenthall9768 ah yes 5th haha. Forgot I watched this vid and thought the exact same thing haha
Nothing like a rotary sound.
I keep watching this from time to time, and one thing that always catches my eye is your dash lights getting angry at you for something.
Do love it coming down conrod though - all out of gears, so just let that baby wind right out!
The Fridge thank you mate. The early warning lights are water temp. The late warning lights are oil level. The MoTeC slows me down when the oil isn't high enough in the engine, hence why I cruised the last two laps, preventing 100% throttle mid corner. Glad you liked the video.
Finally got a chance to watch from start to finish - epic mate, well done ! Boppa
I cant believe these other cars are here mate
That sound! What rev limiter is it running? Awesome car and drive.
Motec M84 computer controls the limiter, hardcut is 10,400. Thank you
so fast the windshield wipers are coming up
Great drive mate.
my new hero
The SOUND, the SKILLS, the TRACK, the RACING, the CARS: STILL THE SEXIEST RACING VIDEO ON YOOGLE!
The Speedsource RX-8's are super-sexy, but they never ran on this track, with this driver.
I've made this my alarm clock. It's a real wake-up call!
Come on little car do your thing.
Nice! never got passed
Awesome drive Joeseph! Inspiring;
One question, I've rewatched this a few times now, lol, and I notice you 'prime' the brakes upon entering a breaking zone, or just abouts there before....
What is the purpose of this//reasoning?
Thanks for posting this vid!
+FukU2222 Thank you Mate, yep I tap the brake pedal on the straight to bring the pedal height back up. It's an old habit that I subconsciously still do after having a terrible brake pedal in years gone by.
+Joseph Lenthall ahah, old habits are the hardest to break so they say... And my bad on calling you Jeff, lmao... Fail. I can dig it though.
Nice Drive..
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
whats that awful grinding noise off throttle?? brakes? great drive mate ... decent HP for the 13B
Hi Mate, I think it was a tail-shaft that wasn’t 100%, and the new exhaust slightly rubbing on the floor.
it would be good to see some shots of the outside of the car
Travis Shackell I have heap of images on my dedicated racing Facebook page. Hope you like what it looks like! 👍facebook.com/JLARTracing/
Nice apex seals
What is this game. So realistic
Anyone know what motors in it 13B? Porting
13B Bridgeport, mate.
i wonder what happen if he starts at 34th
DRIVING!!!!
This little car and owner are as happy as a dog with two tails.
It's a Rotary Rocket!!
Side note, ironic having a car without conrods thundering down the conrod hahah
What a beast , I'm curious what's the button on the wheel your pressing ? is this PP with injection ?
Thanks Mate. The button on the wheel is the radio button to speak to the crew. BP with injection. Can't run a PP in that class.
What suspension mods have you done ? I'm thinking of converting my first gen rx7 to double wish bone
Still standard suspension pick up points and arms. 3 way adjustable Pro-Flex shocks.
SelectMaz on song!
Lol have not seem the..old Suzuki swifts in ages! Whens the last time u seen one boys?
Hahahahaha Hahahahaha Hahahahaha komatsu loader coolant mate thankyou
Sweet car. 13B bridgy? Kinda sounds like a 12A bridgy.
13B Bridgey! 💪
Sounds like 12a?
EPIC DRIVE, Semi PP that 13b ?
Hi Frank, 13B Bridge. Glad you like the video
@@josephlenthall9768 loved it, nice to see cars that are not all fat
4 door family sedans racing, billet boss 13b ? seems go hard for a bridgey....seemed real cranky for a bridgey down low as well
FRANK101101101 nah, can't run billet blocks in this class. Just a cast mazda block with a BP. I reckon it sounds good too!!
@@josephlenthall9768 that is a smick, any mazda gear is allowed then ?
@@josephlenthall9768 Its just got that lumpy open me up sound down low, till it gets near the edge of happy and then says lets go
what is with the black heart on your roll cage?
Dylan McCallister my girlfriend wrapped the front of the roll cage in black when I repainted the car. It reduces glare and looks better in photos. She made a heart with left over vinyl and we joke about how it's still there. You're the first person to mention it!! Haha
hope you still race man, maybe have a speedometer too
Still racing, mate! Don't need a speedo, but the data showed 258kmh at the end of the straight.
This feat is made all the more impressive because he's driving on the wrong side of the car.
+blogegog lol.
"Wrong side of the car"
XD
Correct for the country it was built in mate.
It's Yanks that are wrong.
Martin steenbeeke, more countries drive on the right side. It's just japan, a few small asian countries and the British Empire reminents that drive on the left. So, europe, russia, china, well two thirds of the countries drive in the right. Not just us 'yanks'
Considering the video is in AUSTRALIA. It ain't wrong.
Bloody.
Yanks.
woo woo! lol 14:45
Dogleg gearbox?
+tyresmoke First gear lock out. Referred to as a dogleg. (not a dogbox)
The white RX7 driver knows a little better to drive a Rotary, you must have no mercy for the car it will keep up with your aggressive driving with a little slide threw he corners help keeping the revs up
It makes a lot of noise on decel isn't it?
yep, had a vibration from the exhaust touching the body and a crack in the gearbox shifter stay. both rattled terribly when the car wasn't on throttle.
I see.. Other then that, it sounds like porn. But that's to be expected with a rotary :D
Hope I get the chance to drive bathurst once.
The stupid little steering wheel is comedic. Why don't you make it even smaller ?[aerospace engineer]
Bruce Blake I think it might be the camera angle mate. Or you're joking. The wheel is 350mm. Pretty much the standard size for a racecar.
