Who has run on Eastern Creek here?
I have done a fair bit of driving there over the years and know the track pretty well..

I have just managed to crack into the 1.58's there.. for a 6cyl. thats pretty damn fast.. when you consider supercars run at 1.45's I am trying to snare a few extra tenths round the place, just wondering what gears some of use round there specially turn 2 and 8 the tight hairpins turn 2 always leaves me the wrong side of 2nd and the short side of 3rd.. and turn 8 is not much better.

suggestions without changing diff ratios.. entry speeds? how late do you brake? where do you put your brake marker? I pull ABS out on the track cause it unsettels the car too much on other turns, I would rather pinch a brake than run ABS.. what landmarks do you run by?

Gimme your secrets
