not sure Dale. I wasn't there and didn't get regs or anything for the event. Hopefully Giant or Brenken will see the thread. I have a mate who ran there too, so i might give him a call and find out how he went.

Not surprised, most sprint organisers don't like it when people drift... to much chance of wrecking stuff !

Alot of the guys at the Townsville one were starting to do it , and we just got a big chat too last meeting. As ours is run on the Townsville Kart Track... the kart track owners were getting annoyed with it.

That black GTR was at the first local hillclimb this year .... was quite a weapon for sure..... and he now holds the track record by 3 seconds !

Although there website's main index.htm page is damaged/missing , i found my way in and saw this notice ...

Quote:-

The Track is approximately 960 meters long with two 45 degree right hand turns, several chicanes and then into a right hand hairpin turn leading onto the main straight. This will be a Race Track and not a Drag Strip !! No Drifting allowed !!!! "

;) See no drifting comment

Hey Gary,

Thought that might have been the gtr that simon said came up there and blitzed it. It was on tv, winning the NSW dutton rally.

Yeah the drifting comment looked a big amateur though on that webpage.

I bet jaimen in our old T18 was one of those drifters too, lol.

Tim.

Hi Tim, yeah well it's understandable they don't want it . Crowds love it of course..

Yes it certainly was a fast car.

One of many i think ! Also this was the event just after the gtr had the off on the cool down lap, and took a gouge out of the bitumen... so they were really cranky.

i don't know if any of those guys have ever been to a drag stip, but i haven't seen a drag strip yet that has a corner after 200m for you to drift. i'm sure people drift the corner at the end, but that isn't part of the drag strip, thats just a return road which i would class as the pits.

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
