Lucky? I have doen a few 14-18hr days this week and worked last weekend trying to free up time to go to PI and get this arvo to do some running around...work was quiet 3 weeks ago but now the sky is falling :P Thats why earlier this week after a technical glitch with the cat i was going to pull the pin...but fark it. In this world if you dont have a go your a mug :P

...and West, if passenger laps are a go then the passenger seat is all yours...no one else is silly enough to get in the car of the village idiot :D

Oh and need to put extinguisher back in the car :(

Ok if west doesn't make it down, i'm up for a ride in passenger lap brisby, Chris tells me after being in the passenger seat of your car at deca long-wang, he doesn't push hard enough hahah.

Brisby: You must be getting more organised, normally its 11pm you start all that shit.

I may have a passenger seat open as well if my mate doesn't come down...

I can personally vouch that a passenger lap in Brisby's car is something you'll never forget.

I can also highly recommend Xanax as the medication to help you sleep again after the experience.

That it,

I'm hype up now, i'll bring a spare undie just incase :D !

I take it back, my apologies!

I don't think yours with the Black Spur and the Magnetic Fields could be any worse than Brisby's :huh:

Yeah but with me you at least know I'm not insane. I was just driving fast and the music showed I was relaxed in doing so.

With Brisby you aren't quite sure about the sanity side of things as the more he gets things wrong the more excited he gets.

Anyways...

I just thought my day was done before I'd even started tomorrow. Went back to my car after lunch to find a small river coming from underneath it and I feared the worst. Good news is it just turned out to be a split in the rear wiper washer hose and the fluid was just water from the washer tank. Hopefully that's it for issues for me this weekend.

Long Wang with Bris was a very exciting 60 Seconds of my life where I was sure it was going to be all over about 60 times.

Cars are ghey.

What's wrong mate? Your car sounded tough and strong when you fly pass us!

It was a tiring day,

well for us who had to stand flagging almost all day. The only ispired, entertained that we get is when the Fast group come out, hearing the roaring RB26 passing by was gold.....and offcourse the infamous wild animal RB20 Brisby power house screaming pass, occasionally sideway but well tamed by the beast owner himself.

Well done everyone!

What's wrong with your car mate? All i could hear on the radio was something like your intercooler hose blew off, your car was awesome as well Matt.

Thanks. yeah that's exactly what happened.. intercooler hose kept blowing off.. never happens on the dyno =( I got 4 laps in all day... 180 / 4 = $45 a lap :)

It's just annoying because it's the only pipe section we didn't replace... and it does have the tuff bolt style clamp on the silicon joiner because we changed all of those, but it was the pipe.. ah well, Next time.

Times are up - http://www.racetime.com.au/?event=p0701

Snowy had knock issues.

Matt had cooler piping issues.

Jack broke 5th gear but still did a 49 with just 4 gears haha

Gareth is a madman, 1.52's on street tyres!

Brisby is nuts too, 1.52 flat....

The 911turbo piped jack and aaron .... but the MPC purple GTR killed everything.

And i ended up with a 1.51 after i found some balls in the last couple of sessions thanks to gareth and some words from jack, still not enough, could of gone faster with another session dammit.

What happened to you BB?

Results are up:

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
