To little to late for AIR...There must be an alteria motive for BJ to be spending $$$$ on that place....Like him making money, otherwise wouldn't he have spent the $$$ previously? Something more sinister is going on maybe its the old BJ V's BR battle?? Anything you can do i can do better???

Important Notice - Adelaide

We have just been advised that nearly all of Adelaide Raceway has been resurfaced, but, when they were on the last section of the back straight the machinery sank through the track.

As a result we will have to cancel May/June in Adelaide.

The track will not be ready for several months as they have to dig out the whole of the back straight and rebuild it.

We apologise for this delay. We are trying to book alternate dates at Mallala and we will advise further when we have more information.

i got the same news as whiplash.

Been booked in for this fast track thing where u drive a v8 around the track and everytime we book about a week before it happens theres always something wrong.

Yeah, friend of mine got one of those fast track days as a gift (birthday), but they kept canceling. He got sick of it and thought "f**k it", told them to go stick it.

:D

Yeah, but no one here is going to be holding their breath just yet.

:woot:

Yeah true but atleast if Calder have brought it, It's a positive sign that something will happen :P

Maybe a mass email to the Calder Park people to find out what's happening and when you guys will see your track again !!

Jess: Bob Jane has owned both Calder Park and AIR for MANY years... and thus is the problem.

Bob is a tight ass and wont do anything properly with regards to upgrading/repairing facilities... that is why the circuit has been closed for so long. In the last few years (partly due to his divorce) Bob has spent as little as he could, and what he has spent has all been at Calder, NOTHING at AIR. (till now it seems).

But with this sink hole set back, wouldnt surprise me if he doesn't spend anything for another 12+ months.

Bob has never spent anything at AIR. That place has been deteriorating for over 10 years!

Signs half dangling over the track etc! :geek:

Oh well I just learnt something..I thought Calder where different people..

yes I know its been deteriating :) the last time I was there was when Jack Daniels brought there drag car out and did a massive burnout display down the strip was awesome and there was a massive crowd, Adelaide has had some awesome stuff that you dont see anywhere else :D

But they advertise for V8 laps and driver training at AIR :geek:

well good ol'bob has left the work on the track to late and has had to relocate the next round of his AMRC (which means we miss out on seeing some decent racing cars).Knowing how half arsed the series is run, i'm surprised they aren't racing around the construction work on the track

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
