I'll bet you own a tweed jacket with leather elbow pads too Terry.

Gotta love the grey hair Terry, I laugh at the younguns havin a moan about how many times they get pulled over. How many times have you been driving when a cop pulls along side, looks at you then shakes his head and drives away. I luvit.

Ya beat me to it Dunc. Is it casey stoner or stacey coner.

Finish your apprenticeship in the security of the dealership. Once you have your indentures signed then think about broadening your horizons. That piece of paper will mean everything to your future and can be a real problem to attain in smaller workshops. Too many of them go belly up for one reason or another and leave you out in the cold.

sigh!

cya monday bloke.

You mean the shit that Clowndes has been getting away with for years. Good to see the shoe on the other foot for a change.

X11ty Ben. Still waiting for the heart rate to go down.

Awesome race. congrats to the winners. Now to clean up the chip packets, coke bottles etc.

There are test sessions every wednesday and saturday night at willowbank John. Plenty of opportunity for you to get some passes in prior to the event.

Its a snow plough you idjut.

Its the right end of the calender for that type and class of race car.

X 11ty for jambo. Its where it all happens for your class of racing John. Bring it man.

c,mon fessup Ash. The black knight is in your ancestry isnt he.

Dunno bout you Ash but I'll take all the 10/15 hp for 80 buck mods I can find.

We.re not trying to run 7 second passes ripmeister. responsive strteet/track car is where its at for me. but yeah, I have spent a good deal on head work and flow. It makes sense to make the power i want without having to turn the boost wick up any more than i want to.

Yes you should throw on your old hard rubber. federal RS-r's will not cut it on a prolonged dyno session. I have watched mine turn to molasses.

Here ya go. I had these people make me a custom 30 mil rb25 spacer to lengthen the intake runners on my greddy plenum. Havnt fitted it as yet but will be soon. They claim some good things with regards to reducung heat in the plenum. http://www.maceengineering.com.au/_MaceProducts.htm

Wait for what. It still sounded like shit and in the flesh would sound worse. We wont even mention the idle.

if rotors lasted as long as this thread I doubt we would be even reading this.

The one leg is both the same

It is better to remain silent and have people think you are a fool rather than open your mouth and prove it. In your case however, it is too late.

This same argument has been going on for the 40 odd years the rotor has been in production. laymen such as myself could be swayed by either argument. However Neither argument addresses the original question. "why do rotors suck" The question wasnt "are rotors good for any particular application in the world of internal combustion". The same question could be asked of any particular design of motor. They all have their strengths and weakness's. Trouble is, it wasnt. So why do rotors suck? A. They do sound like arse, Depending on cofiguration they emit either the "wank wank" sound or they make a noise akin to a model airplane on rhoids. B. They are not fuel efficient. If as claimed by the pro rotor team they are 1.3 or 2.6 litres or whatever the fuel efficiency is even worse than I was led to believe. C. there is a question mark over their reliability D. Pound for pound they do appear to lack torque to any degree. Even a briggs and Stratton can be made to look good if its propelling something light enough. E. The rotor Fanboiz Are the rudest bunch of chuntz to ever grace these boards. Plain and steadfast arguments have been proffered by the piston brigade only to be met by personal attacks from the egg beater crowd. Some of them have offerred damn fine arguments in favor of the rotor but let their credibility fly out the window With their personal remarks. Bring it on rotor heads but dont sully a damn good debate by attacking the man rather than the argument.

Well shoot! the bushfire cruise is only just making an appearance in the october HPI so i wouldnt be holding my breath for a while yet.
