SATURDAY NIGHT CRUISE

29/07/2006

Ok,

Proposed is a Mountain Cruise (Old School Style)

Starting on Southport Nerang Road from the BP service station and cul de sac carparking area on Centeral Park Avenue. (Maps Below)

Following it all the way out to the Natural Arch and back down to the Springbrook turnoff out to mudgerabah then back to Ashmore Tavern Carpark following the leader.

Meet at 8:30pm BP on Southport Nerang Road

Depart at 9:000pm

This will give people time to fill up (for those that use caltex you can convert and be normal........or use the one up the road.) You will need approximately a half a tank of fuel so fill up regardless.

Then we will strike forth to the natural arch.

This will be used as a turn around bay.

Drive back to the Springbrook exit go down towards Mudgerabah. (Great drive)

Then Back to the A

mpol/ local Tavern on Beaudesert Nerang Road/ Price Street/ Southport Nerang Road. (This is the same road, from the BP it is Southport Nerang Road then towards the highway turns to Price Street then towards the mountain turns to Beaudesert Nerang Road.)

CB's are recomended as you may get lost or require the assistance of David Hasselhoff.

Channel will be given on the night.

Northbound and Southbound take Exit 69

The trip is worth it.

Who is up for it?

ALL members are welcome

For those that will be attending this from Brisbane can someone please put the old hand up and arange a meeting place up there somewhere.

Those that are not at the meeting place on time will sadly miss out.

I feel that a 30 minute window is big enough.

If you have a skyline or even a moped i dont care if your on the site be there or be squizaire

For more detailed directions use Whereis.com or a simple refedex to find the meet place.

If you get lost call me on 0405987261

Cautions:

These roads are out in the bush/forrest, please keep a distance between you and the car infront to compensate for posible braking due to wildlife.

If you can tell the person behind wants to overtake you indicate to the left to notify them they can safetly do so.

As my car is receiving a rather large rectal thermometer (RB3026) i will be attending in a white series 2 skyline and will respond to name calling.

Those who are more circular and not square who will be attending.

Heh I would never have seen this if it wasn't linked to from another topic in the Qld section.

Anyway, bitching aside, the meetup point is seriously like 5 minutes from my house, CRAZY! I think I'll be in, have never been on a "night cruise"...

I'm not about to thrash it up any mountains though, I hope we will be driving at a SENSIBLE speed?

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
