Yep the red carpet will be out for you guys and no silly talk I am impressed with you guys and your track times. Eastern Creek will be a huge even by the looks of it. I don't think you guys Also I am looking forward to meeting Ben Race Pace and show and tell and discuss.

Roy your 1 min 56 would beat probably 80% of the GTR's times in Sydney.

EC is an awesome and fast track lots of run off and generally a safe track although not as safe as Wakefield. By the way most if not all the Sydney gang will be doing Eastern Creek only.

John, dont forget that the EC day is only open to interstate ppl, as its not an L2S day. We have begged to get the day opened up to us interstate guys. But unless your from interstate or hold a national level licence you wont be allowed on by the ARDC ;)

As for the 1:56, well that was with 180km/h speed limiter. 140-150rwkws, & mismatched road tyres.

With no speed limiter, new semi slicks, and about 230rwkws...im hoping by the end of the day i can get down to around the 1:52s. If i dont i will be disappointed. Ideally i want to get a 1:49 then i will be hitting the cans at the Cricketers Arms and telling all the local girls how im the nephew of Steve McQueen

Hey Snowy, have you received the disclaimer from trhe people on that list or is it just interest shown???

It's a shame Ben and Sam can't make it, oh well, the Sydney guys will have to deal with some of the 'slower' cars from Vic... ;)

That's whom I have confirmation from so far that are coming. I'm only adding people to it now when I know they are in for sure. Although there are a couple of quick EVO guys from QLD keen to come as well that aren't on the list. One of them is particularly quick so that should be interesting especially at Wakefield and the other ran a mid 1.07 there on his only other visit.

Oh I did not know it was for interstate only. Do I call myself a Victorian, or do I say I am bait for interstate GTR's. I know it is reserved with ARDC which I confirmed personally. The only thing is with no money down and previous experience you need to make sure those who are saying they are definitely coming are actually coming. How many are confirmed?

What else do I need to do to be added Snowy? I have the form to fill in for Eastern Creek. My accomodation form is filled out and awaiting confirmation from James on nights he is going to be there. Sorting the CAMS at the meeting on Tues with Chris.

As I said John - the list in the first post are the people that are OFFICIALLY coming rather than just the initial group that showed interest.

Alan - I'll add you and James to the list.

Bunta - you need more QLD's.

I am 150% in for the week. If I don't get my disclamer in by the end of this week, is there a chance I will miss out on Eastern Ck?

Also, without reading 100s of posts, is the accom locked in? Can I get my own room in the cabins?

Accom for Eastern Ck sorted with no chance of cars being towed / stolen?

PM me if necessary.

Cheers...

Your car beind stolen is the least of your worries. Make sure you have had all your shots as odds are you will be...well you have seen Deliverance havent you.

If you have a national licence you can do EC, otherwise i was only able to arrange entry for the interstate folk, as we shoudl not be allowed on the track with only an L2S licence. The day will be race cars, its not unusual for sports sedans and old Touring Cars to be running around. I was there with a B&H Sierra once :D

No Matt - everyone from Vic (or QLD) can do it under a deal we made with management from EC. It's ok.

It's supposed to be for C3 and higher only but they have given us up to 30 places for L2S guys from interstate. At this stage it looks like we will only use about 15 of them though.

The Eastern Creek day is for holders of a full race license only NC and PC (Previously C3 and C4).

But snowy contacted them directly and organised for a group of mexicans with L2S to be allowed.

But still no L2S frmo NSW (although maybe we could slip a few in now there are less mexicans coming :( )

Ok guys, ive looked at places to organise a dinner with you guy and the nsw guys, you're quite a way from Sydney though, but there is one place out there you should like.....HOOTERS :(

Would you guys be interested in that? Also, what night is best?

If you are a Mexican can you please send your forms by the end of next week?

N1GTR (Steve is it?) can you rally the NSW folk who are looking for accom at Wakefield?

Essentially we are needign to confirm numbers with them as the Monday/Tues morning is a big day for them because of the track booking on Monday. The accom has been fully booked out for the Monday night and they are closed on the Tuesday.

So they need numbers from us so they can be sure that the rooms are clean and ready for us on Tuesday afternnon (arrange staffing key collection etc)

As for dinner, let me know if you are keen for some Italian, a friend runs a great Italian joint in Penrith....

And Friday night its Cricketers Arms or Mean Fiddler

      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.
