In case people aren't aware

This was in the email I got weeks ago....

$130

From 2nd January 2008 to 9th January 2008 Grand Prix Circuit

11th January 2008 to 13th January 2008 Grand Prix Circuit

I have an exam on the 8th so........I could be tempted for another round anytime after that.

Hmm, let me get this right, OPGP track EVERY DAY from 2-9 Jan? Hmm, hot or not, I'm keen. Turn the boost down and go round and round and round!

i guess its the start of new year and they have lots of days unfilled.

but call up beforehand anyway just in case.

If you go on the 2nd or the 3rd ill come and watch

you didn't need one the other day?

anyway....you need a club exec....myself, adam (abo-bob), Jess (Sinful), steve (n1gtr), Shell, Neil. If one of us is out there on the day we can sort it out. Or you will have to catch one of us beforehand

yeah i paid the extra $20 for a one day pass, but now i've sent my forms to melbounre and i have the little tear off bit on the bottom to be signed...

Time to get myself a stop watch

ok so i didnt go today, was too tired and last night the car gave me some greif..(just little comestic things but you know how you can get angry and all when shit messes up)

anyway i didnt hear from anyone in time to come and drive too or just event watch so when can we do this again poeple and who can make what???

i still need an admin to sign my temp cams licence please...

you didn't miss out on anything special yesterday.... there were a group of drifters there, so it was 3 sessions instead of 2 sessions... which cut the track time down heaps!

I also got there late as I chewed through one of my tyres on the way there (lucky mum came to drop me some spare tyres to the tyre shop!)

I got 4 sessions, 3 were like... one lap on, one lap cool down... one lap on one lap cool down...and the 4th was 4 laps and thanks to dave, no more overheating!!

damn it was hot out there yesterday

hey liz, so just explain the session thing to me again for your day yesterday???

are you saying you only got to do 4 sessions all day with two of those only being 2 laps in total???

when i went there on the 28th i must have had like 10-15 sessions and each one was 4 laps and a cool down lap!

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
