YEAH we made it through the prolouge, span out bigtime, cost us about 23 seconds, so if we didn't spin, we would have been about mid to top of feild. ATM we are LAST, so we start first today. DID some suspention work, to help the car turn in more, se how that goes.

Yeah sorted, thanks...jb33 came to our rescue.

We made it through our first targa day in 1 piece, w00t! Car was very taily especially in the wet with all the tight corners, it is much tailier than it is on a racetrack. Great fun though, should be some good pics :)

But we still have a missfire that is shitting me, changed the plugs and ignitors (did the coils and afms yesterday), hopefully it is sorted now.

yeah I just got the call a few mins ago, but didn't want to post anything. thought I would leave it up to duncan, but it's out there anyway I guess.

sad news indeed. but very pleased they are both ok, so they can come back and tell us all about it over a beer. :D

Not sure what happend, i'm just managing the team and built the car, as i was unable to drive or navigate due to personal issues (WIFE)

So Today i had to be in hobart, recived a text 10 minuts after it happend, got on the UHF to the CROW, the stage official, and no good, can't get trough, phones off, service crew is there, waiting for a report back.

JAS-25T here posting for Team Raceworx including Neil

We will be getting the car back out tomorrow - already sourced parts and a champion of a bloke that is lending us his garage to work on.

We didnt come all this way to retire already.

if it takes all night to fix - so be it.

:P

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
