hahah i kept thinking the same thing Troy. Watching it i'm going, wow he's moving... then i timed him and thought shit, i'm (hopefully) going to be going faster haha...

It is the Nation's premier power track afterall . . . . Hehe, I don't know if I'd bother turning up even if I HAD money or a gearbox in My car ! ! Neeeed POWWWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHH ! !

hmmm, manifold pressure compensating Fuel regs on ebay for $120, looks interesting . . . . . ;)

Strange. I was looking at that lap and thinking man he is flying. And braked way later then me over the back. yeh he was 4 secodns slower. Hmm, maybe i will be lucky to wipe off half a second :)

I swear I would have made up 2 seconds of my 3.5 second improvement there last time just by getting some more balls on the back straight... hairy stuff though! Great fun :D

Sandown is still great without a lot of power, and the time can be made up... a little ;)

Hardman: Nigel was only 1.5 seconds quicker than me in the 450rwkw Supra last time we went. Not sure if he was running full power or not, but it sure looked quick on the straights!

hahaha i don't expect to be anywhere near snowy or jack, first time out and lack of skill, you know.... Should be fun tho, i'm getting pumped....

Ferni,

You and I are line ball on nearly every track. Look for a low 23 and you know you would have had a good day.

Best of luck.

I noticed the same thing... at least we have each other to chace, screw these guys doing sub 20's around sandown...

Got the car ready on sunday, can't wait to get out there, little bit nervous even though I'm doing driver training lol.

Yeah you'll be nervous just before you go out, once you're out there it will all just come to you, and you'll start having fun :closedeyes:

Well done Ferni, a 1.22 is really moving.

      Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery

      The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
