still, not a bad game to practice on....shame supercar is the only thing you can drive on ec and oran park. at least at bathurst a range of cars is available.

prank, i'm happy to pass on bad habits, I think I've got a few passenger laps booked!

Myself Knat and 3 other guys from work organise a LAN game of V8 Pro Race Driver usually about every 3rd friday night (from 8pm-4am) absolutely awesome when playing against 5 workmates.

We actually find for the best LAN Racing the Mini Cooper-S is great around bathurst. I can do faster laptimes with them than using a 600hp Stockcar.

Ok people... don't forget that we need to be at the track NO LATER than 8am but preferably by 7:30am.

I'll aim to set up shop at garage 31-34 so look for me in that area.

Debriefing will be as usual at the Cricketers Arms from approximately when you get sick of driving to when you get sick of talking shit and/or bragging about how you smashed that manaro when you did your hot lap of 1:34.893 with other skyline drivers.

Looking forward to it.

Dan.

Hey Talej, particularly if you've not been before, come along and watch / passenger before you head out as a driver.

There's another day on 24/7 (yes, it was a calendar date before it became a saying :P ) that you can drive at!

Im a new meber to SAU and will probably come out to watch. i have never been before though so have some simple questions. Even though im not driving im still allowed into the garage area and so on?

What time does it finish? as i may not be able to make it until maybe 9 or 9:30.

and

is it easy to find the area where all you guys will be?

looks like the gtr wont make it this time (need a new 255/40/17*2)

Your welcomed to come into the pits. Just observe the general rules

No smoking

Keep an eye out for cars entering/exiting pitlane

face the race track

It finishes at 5pm

Hey Pete if your after a set of 235/45/17s then i have 2 your welcome to. They are worn (Well past the indicators, but still visible tread) and even tyre wear so no canvas etc. With me driving easily 1-2 days at the track left in them.

... with you driving, i dont know, but welcome to try.

Ok,

Only 5 days to go.

How to get to the pits

Dirve along M4 and exit at either Reservoir rd or Wallgrove rd and head to the GWH.

From the GWH follow the signs to Eastern Creek Raceway (watch for radiar in this area... the cops love to set one up when there is a track day on).

Turn right at the round about when Eastern Creeck (Gate 1) is straight in front of you.

Follow this road ALLLLL the way around to the back of the circuit to Gate 7 Competitors entry (Observe speeds as I have seen cops on this entry road also and yes it is classified as a public road).

From there just keep driving untill you find the bunch of Skylines (or park near garages 31,32,33,34).

Drivers will get a pit garage to put all there gear in.

Spectator and passengers cars can be parked at the back of the pit garages (make sure you park in the yellow marked bays only).

My number is 0414 940 938 if you are having difficulties.

Pete,

URMINE

Julian & Urmine,

Bring you gear and money guys, I think Kinks said that he wasn't gonna do this on (just bring his camera) and I think I might just go out for passenger laps and try to maybe grab a session on the end if a few guys have gone early. I should be able to get Julian on track and I would imagine I should be able to get Urmine out there too.

Look forward to seeing you all there,

Dan.

No rain just cloudy (my dad is in the weather business and i already asked him about this) we live about 15-20mins west of EC.

If it rains tho (and my dad is wrong) im happy for you all to submit his email address to spam lists :P

    • Omg Brake pedal removal.. FML!!
    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
