So is that a Yay or Nay?

I doubt they would cancel altogether, they would postpone the date until the equipment had been fixed (just a guess), lots of people would have paid up their entry fee.

Would have been good too, if it was nicer weather than last year.

Calder Park in Melbourne is still a bit of shit-hole, if you were going to move anywhere for drag racing it'd to be near WSID or Willowbank, bonus with Qld is they have some great (read slack) rules when it comes to street cars and mods. :)

I Spoke to AIR today.

They said the timing guy is sorting things at the moment and Bob Jane is coming down over the weekend.

They will know whats going on 100 % by wednesday.

Said it is most likely going ahead at this stage though.

I heard Bob Jane isn't prepared to spent 1c on fixing anything, as he will most likely lose the track in the upcoming June court case. Why would you spend money on something you are likely to lose soon? Sorry guys, no more drag racing this year is the likely eventuality. :P

It's official, we have the crappiest track in Australia. I feel bad for people who have spent thousands getting their car ready for this event only to find they may not be able to race in this State!?

Did Bob Jane ever spend 1c on the track? Doesn't show.

I've just been offered a great job in the Gold Coast. I am still undecided at this stage. It will be sad to leave Adelaide but I don't think I will miss SA notorious Regency, defect stations and AIR. Everything that has been said is so true. Took the whole year to prepare the car for this National event and what a let down :P

Decision, decision, decision ......

damn it would be sad to see you leave Danh!

Are you coming on the cruise? If so, please bring my helmet :) - also did you get my PM on ns.com a while back asking you to grab a secondary bonnet wire for me from from Zenith/Darren when you picked yours up? If you didn't and Darren reads this, can he please bring one (or more - who knows - you might sell some) for me to buy?

Nightracer :), I will try to come to the cruise on the 19th if I get part for the PPGearbox in time. I could not pick up the bonnet catch wire as I have been busy and his place is out of my way. If I cant make it I will try to catch up with you guys at the second meeting point (with your helmet).

Zenith if you read this too could you bring Nightcrawler and mine to the cruise?

Many SA drag clubs (including SMASA I believe) have thought of buying the track in the past.

1 big prob: Bob Jane don't wanna sell it. End of story. He just doesnt want to spend $$ on it either, senile old bugga..

anyone see him on the Muscle Car Masters on ch10 the other week? He had no idea what was going on around him :(

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
