I just want a dry day so I can post some real times :P

I think something that could make the list a little interesting is, if its known, post the 'at the wheels KW' the car is running. Might put a litte different perspective on the list. . . . .

Where are the mods making this Sticky???

Times do tell the story. I have thought about a dyno day for the track day to put rwkw next to lap times for interest.

maccattack - There may be some full days in the pipeline for this year :P

I think we have run out of forum glue to make this thread sticky :D

This has probably been asked before many a time. But, I am trying organise me and some friends to come to one of these track days and they are all asking me about insurance, costs licences etc. please can someone confirm the following

Insurance does not cover you if you crash on the track ?

you do not need a Cams liscence ?

its somehting like $110 for the day.

sb..

Generally your insurance does not cover you on the race track. Read your policy carefully or call your insurer.

You don't need a CAMS license as we run under the AASA, which we buy a public liability insurance policy from.

You need to have a Qld Raceway annual license which is $55. You require this to do any motorsport out there.

You need a helmet and long sleeve non flammable clothes.

Your car needs to be in good working order with no fluid leaks etc.

The cost is $120.

If you want to book in a group of mates, send me a PM with your email address and I'll send you all the details.

i disagree, the times will say all they need to

I disagree Michael! You have just finished a major power upgrade if the bits you are selling are any indication. Having spent some money doesn't make you a better driver, it just makes the car faster!! Putting two drivers in the same vehicle is the best way to judge ability. Unless the people know what your car is able to do, they will think YOU are better, not just poorer for having spent dollars on your car!!!! KW tells most of the story. :)

you were making more power than me on the trackday in march

what did the times say?

One lap your time was better than mine. Most laps, you were behind by 2+ seconds. A rematch is in the cards soon. Patience little man, all good things for those who wait. (GTR is on the docks! )

Sounds like you guys need a complete solution for this dispute. You could have a system based on not only best lap times on the Sprint, Clubman and National circuits (weighting more on the shorter circuits due to less dependancy on power) but also a consistency segment, maybe discard the fastest and slowest lap time for the day then calculate the distribution of times.

Also, for those who came, how good was that video Brett did of last years track days !!!

Oh yeah, what about the Willowbank times?? Did I forget to mention them??

nah i was faster remember

and what are you talking about i was 2 seconds faster than you on sprint

EDIT: haha, just checked the spreadsheet from the march trackday, my worst time in the sheet was equal to your best. nice try oldman. :)

and paul, the video rocked :)

Hey guys, Track Day is only 3 weeks away. Time to get booked in, a bit short on numbers at the moment. I've put the 5 groups up on:

If you want a full SAU group let me know and I'll move some cars around.

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
