I went today from 5-10pm and to be honest it wasnt the most exciting nite of racing.

Plenty of waiting around from cars running into the sand or sliding on their roof etc I think I spent more time in the pits than sitting watching.

I'm confident that next weekends SuperNats will be 10x better.

OMG :( I have never seen Hail so big in my life. Today around 3ish it started to hail then i could not beleive my eyes when a few more come down. I picked up 2 of them and that was all i could fit in my hand.

And thanks to the almighty one above i now have HALE DAMAGE :D and more chips on my bonnet than before :D

Thanks everyone, arfter getting home and having a better look at my car i have ended up with more chips on my car than before and as far as i can see so far there is about 7-8 dents on the bonnet and 9-10 on the roof. Pretty SAD :P

I think I scored a plug for delivering Ben Bray's replacement engine plates from the gong as well. :(

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
    • hi mate, HKS cooler piping still available by any chance?
