just to let everyone know, don't forget to bring:

- helmet: meeting australian standard (with sticker to prove it)

- shoes

- long sleeve shirt/jumper

- long sleeve pants

as these are required for competitors... as least i think so, from memory from last time

i was on the start line last time and they wouldn't start the tree because i had the sleeves of my jumper rolled up. i had to roll them down, then they let us start. geez.

Warren.

all flights col, on all airlines? that's unlucky

what about travelling through adelaide or sydney?

Yeah I asked Qantas is there any way to get to Melbourne, the chicks responce was book now for next year...

She said they had tripled their flights to Melbourne over the next 4 days...

I did try Virgin and Jet Star and I even tryed webjet...

There was one flight on a Qantas flight but it was business class and was $1200 return, which is way too expensive and un-afordable...

Anyway, it opens me up to this TnT so lucky for me there is still something exciting to do... :(

ouch!

tore the muscle belly or tore at an insertion into the bone?

just load up on some narcotic analgesics and you'll be right... :blink:

Tore it in the middle but is badly effecting movement in my neck and shoulder. I am a bit more free now but the problem is with jerky movements, they are the worst and launches at willowbank aren't exactly smooth. Will rest up tonight and tomorrow but I really think I would be wasting my money to try :). Shall see how I go.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.

      Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.

      hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator

      R32 GTR Limp Mode?

      By Duncan · Posted

      wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
