Autosports Australia and Ian Luff Motivation Australia are proud to announce the first of what we think will be the new trend in skidpan days.

Welcome to

Autosports "Ultimate Control" skidpan.

(No#1)

Saturday March 24th

ORAN PARK, SYDNEY

These events aren’t not just a skidpan event; these events are designed ultimately for fun and to challenge your driving ability.

It isn’t up to who has the most horsepower…it isn’t up to the latest breaker… its up to who learns the most and who has the combination of finesse and skill to win and overcome a challenging situation.

The basis of these events was to create a one day “mini Dutton Rally†style event where people with no experience can get in and find out what all the fun others are having at these styles of events is about. At the

same time experienced drivers who want to learn more and maybe get the edge over their competitors.

So if you want to be apart of a motivating and challenging fun filled day of ripping it up on the skidpan, get your name down for one of these events.

You will learn more about driving technique in challenging conditions than you will on a full race track.

So come along and meet a bunch of fellow motoring and motorsport lovers and some new friends. You will have fun in your car like you want to be doing and not just talking about it and I promise go home with a smile on your dial. So get in and have a go…

The days event will be run along the lines of the following;

Format for the day:

Guests arrive 8 am,

sign on and registration (tea, coffee served)

9.00 am

Driver Briefing. Note Drivers that arrive late and miss the safety briefing will not be allowed to participate and will forfeit full payment.

* Drivers divided into groups.

9.30 am

Introductions to driving disciplines individual challenges include:

1.) Clover Leaf

A timed activity that incorporates power slides around the plastic markers. The wet surface will really provide lots of challenges.

2.) Super Slalom

Again competitors run against the stop watch to see who will be Top Gun. Touch a soft plastic cone and a timed penalty will apply.

3.) Autocross

The ultimate driving test where too much power will see you sideways. Smooth is fast and the stop watch will determine who is the best driver.

4.) Drag & Drift

Gas it out of the start box flat out onto the skid pan. Two laps around the wet circle without spinning out. Back through the mini slalom and stop in the garage.

THE FASTEST 3 DRIVERS FROM EACH OF GROUP ENTER THE FINAL ROUND

5.) Khanacross

A combination driving activity where acceleration, braking and change of direction around he plastic markers will see all drivers living on the edge. Any mistakes incur a timed penalty.

So not just bragging rights… there will also be prizes on offer on the day and the Autosports Crew will be on hand as well having fun with you guys. This together with everyone cheering each other along or paying out on each other, outlines how we will bring a new dimension to the fun factor at our Oran Park…

      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?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
