if you want me to find a new home for ur mickey t's im sure i can give them a new home....

yeah slicks give a me 0.350 seconds.....on an old set.....new tyres would deffinitely be more stickier.....

make sure they are heated tho....my first run felt like it was on ice......

Ray if the weather is good i will also be heading out next week.....0.180 to go.....

LoLz Mona you know the longer you stay away the harder it is for you maintain your position :domokun:

YOU NEED TO GET BACK DOWN THERE GAL! i wanna see those MONSTER BURNOUTS! i still can't do em <sigh>

Changed the front wheels back to normal(after trackday) last night Soo COLD then went to get petrol no v-power racing ffs! next time i'm getting it tuned for 98octane i'm so sick of paying 30c more for 100octane and having no supply available 95% of the time.

Hopefully can get petrol in the car tonight otherwise i'll be out i HATE SHELL!

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
