I had a great day as always.

As always, I said I might just try to win this time, but as soon as I lost traction the first time, I gave up and just went for the biggest angle and the most smoke.

Speaking of smoke, I burnt through at least 65% of my brand new tyres.

And I need a new clutch :D

But that doesn't matter, I had a freaking ball as always!

Where are the pics?

...flashbacks...its slowly coming back to me :D

Great weekend, big thanks to Russel and friend (sincere apologies but im drawing a blank on your name), Nat, Mav, Leewah for helping run the back track.

Big thanks to Tom, Chris, Jarrod and Al for the drives...Al's car is GREAT fun...old school turbo hit!!!! Maybe RB20s do suck?

Good session on the drink as well...apologies to the ladies for the bad language on the loud speaker at 4am...was trying to round up the drinking troop!

I have the flu now and feel average but I've done the results none the less.

Thanks to Nige and Karl and the Racingline crew for helping to bring us the recent event. Also I'd like to thank everyone that helped run the day. It ran extreemly smoothly and this ensured everyone got their full compliment of runs.

I'd also like to thank everyone that competed on the day for once again bringing the right attidude along and making the day enjoyable for everyone. It was especially great to see so many passengers all through out the day.

Sorry to all that I couldn't make the post event shinanigans but I was thinking of you all as I was sitting in the swamp.

Until the next next one ....

Cheers

Snowy.

PS - Blaise is banned from using my car in future events

PPS - Next time around we need to ensure we have David in the 350z and Nige in the Supra for a quality RWD head to head.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
