Lude Generation

Found this video from onboard a quick Evo during our session:

He passes quite a few Preludes, including:

@CrunchyAdams82's red 4G (1:10)
@Gayno's white 4G (1:45),
@Thebusofwoe's green 4G (2:28),
@Drax's dark 4G (3:35),
@nucleustylzlude's silver Mazda (10:17),
@nitin_s1's black 5G (10:45),
@Bludge's red 4G (11:00)

You can also see @nitin_s1's black 5G (dark rims) 2nd from the front in the pitlane and my black 5G (silver-lip rims) 4th from the front, then @nucleustylzlude's silver Mazda 5th in line.

He spent a while chasing down that white Civic, which must have been really quick as well.

I can see I use my brakes well ahead of everyone

Also, the black some doesn't look that bad on the video as it does from my rear view mirror

Well from what I've decided from this. Is unless your running a Lude at around 1000kg and 250-270bhp any car with decent cc and a turbo will smash us on straights lol even made the s2k look like diesel van lol.

You did well nitin for first ever go on track you didn't stuff it so that's a winner lol

the evo was fully stripped out you can here every spec of dust hitting the floor most of the civics will be fully stripped out most of the ludes are full fat

And the Evo has obviously done it before

Very true, although the Prelude can't hold a candle to most Evos or Imprezas, unfortunately. I was on a Castle Combe trackday last week driving against a guy in a fairly stock Impreza WRX (225bhp I believe) and he was far quicker than my 5G H22a8. A combination of 4 wheel drive, the torque from a turbocharged engine and not forgetting the LSD that most rally-replicas come with meant he could take corners a lot quicker then power out of them faster as well.

Makes me think about getting a Quaife LSD fitted as well as getting the engine built...

I have no problem against standard impreza's they get away quicker but they handle like a Tesco trolley

- Well I was running a similar pace to a couple of tasty Integra DC5s yesterday so I was happy with that! One was running a supercharger as well but I don't think it was setup properly as it should have been much faster otherwise.

@mercutio - what have you actually had done to your engine so far, as I've seen the JSRC and ITB's on your build thread but not sure what has been fitted and tuned so far?
