The Bogan

Happens all the time to me though not through oil loss, happens if your running a little bit rich.

What's needed is a facility that has a sealed track, a dirt track, a motocross track and a 4WD track. All we need is some super rich guy who like his motorsport to buy some land and build it up, shouldn't cost more than $50,000,000. Have it close enough to the big smoke to get in the punters but far enough out to stop the whinging bastards happy. If I win the $70,000,000 lotto next week I'll do it, I'm sure you could make some dollars by getting all the disciplines using it, hell the sealed road, tower and sheds would be the main things that big dollars would be spent on, the dirt sections are the work of a loader and grader which would only need minimal maintenance and the 4wd track wouldn't need maintaining much as they like getting bogged and self recovering anyway. All we need is a table top mountain somewhere with about 3 square kilometres. And a rich guy.

Unfortunately yes.

Signed, I'm still waiting for the driver training one near Lucas Heights

No new graphs mate, I really should get one, LOL. When I get my fuel system sorted (was >75% duty at 414 I think from memory) and run 30psi through the TO4Z Ill get one to post up. Maybe next year

Dont be near Wakie on the 19 of May then, the fear levels may drop after the first session if the engine bay isnt covered in oil. Im loving the power of the boat ATM but the oil issues are breaking my balls, hopefully will be fixed after the new cam covers/baffles and catch can are in. Either that or Im just going to go and buy some Drag Radials for the rear and only go in a straight line, the car has no problems doing that, stupid f**king car.

But fear gives me a semi

Just spoke to Jonathon Graham (WRX guy) and he said as long as the car passes Scruit and you are a member of a CAMS affiliated club (SAUNSW) you are good to go. You can pay by the link in the entry form, fill in the entry form and email it to Jonathons email address. If you pay before 11 May cost is $165. Mark

Yes, I believe it will, I'm thinking when it starts up Satan will be wanting to sponsor it and any red blooded male with get a warm feeling in their pants.

I've got trackmaster, I set it up at Wakie and it seemed fine, I did forget to start it though and the car dropped oil and I dropped my show bags, I will give it a good run on the 19 may at Wakie and compare the results to NATSOFT and see how close it is. If I remember to start it that is...

Thanks Duncan.

When I started my apprenticeship in 1981 I was on $65 a week. I still had enough money to save for my 1st car, a Mini, it was awesome.

I cannot see why not, give ones of the organisers a ring.

And the correct weight and power figures are ?

Check the build dates mate.

Got my ballot paper in the mail for the ARDC, as they rule the world in regards to Eastern Creek Im not sure on who is best to vote for, any tips or names of who would be the best choice would be most appreciated. The choices are; Neil Turner Terry Conroy Andrew Leithhead Paul Dortkamp Christian Reeves Peter Boylan Im not wanting to start a "I hate this guy" thread, so only positive feedback please. My idea on this is I dont know any of these people, BUT, if you feel that someone you know has the right minerals and will be good for "our" sport/hobbie then send me a PM with the reasons why. I will be filtering the replys by only taking note from those of you that are, how would you say, "are well know to the Motorsport thread". Thanks for any input that comes in, I feel that a uneducated vote is as bad if not worse than not voting at all. Thanks, Mark.

Dont make Mark sad !!!!!!!

Hope to see some of you there. http://www.sscc.org.au/site/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/INTERCLUB-R2-Supp-Regs.pdf http://www.sscc.org.au/site/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/INTERCLUB-R2-Entry-Form.pdf

ACK

And then get a RB30 bottom end.

I ended up getting a adjustable oil pressure and a oil temp warning light, ended up about $25 each. Final price including delivery for 2 warning lights was $86.

I wasn't arguing, but I don't think safety should be considered somewhere you look at to save money. What gets me ranting is I see so many cars with huge money spent on them but they cannot find the funds for quality tyres, I am not saying buy the best tyres on the market, I'm saying buy the best tyres on the market that you can afford.

100% disagree, on the track if you slide you usually just slide of the track, on the street you slide into gutters/people/cars/poles. You can drive as safely as you like but when a kid runs out on the road infront of you, or a car losses it in front of you and you do some hard evasive driving you need grip, it will be then, when you are in the middle of a big slide straight at a telegraph pole that you will wish you spent that little bit extra on tyres. It more of a case of how much is your life worth, ifs its not worth much buy some tyres that will last along time, but, if you feel your life is worth more than a set of sub standard tyres buy some that will actually give you some grip when you need it. How many people get killed on the race track where they are going ten tenths compared to how many people die every day on the road going to work ?, driving on the road is the most dangerous thing most people do, the least you can do is ensure that the only thing that is in contact with the road and stopping you from having a accident is best you can afford. The wreckers are full of nice cars with long lasting tyres. Is your life worth less than the price of a 1 coffee per day?

I remember reading that the 27mm is hollow and has the same strenght as the 24mm, ring Whiteline and ask...
