Sounds fun to me, should be able to scam some cash for my 21st and buy a oil cooler for the event. (Power pfft, need reliability!)

Would be great to finally get on the track.

May 17 has my vote.

It will be $130 for a half day and $230 for the full day. You don't need to be a member to join in, we just want to get the "Skyline" group together for the day.

That does raise the question, do you guys want a half day (which half) or the full day ?

I reckon the afternoon session would suit our members better to be honest Paul, as most dont have oil coolers so the shorter circuits would be far easier on the cars...

Id be happy with either session but i think the shorter tracks will be benificial to the majority... Plus the members would have plenty of time to get there for a afternoon start, even a special SAU breifing for the new comers to trackday...

I will help out for the other half a day for ya Paul, and will help out with any extra SAU help needed...

    • 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.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • 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.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
