I'm a little devistated; I did all my sums on the weekend and came to the conclusion that I dont have the budget to do this. Not this time any way. Looking forward to the next time its on. Untill then I'll just do some more Lakeside days, that should help put a smile back where it should be.

well i picked up fastfours today and gt2 and the benz were in it and they were bloody filthy from rain and road, also had a corner by corner detail comparo in your words around the track,

hehe! was a good read. looked like you guys had a ball!!

HEHE yes it was great fun. Nothing like putting $730k worth of cars on a dirt road :D

I am just wondering how fast fours got it, as I thought the story was for MOTOR only.

Boost button is the go, although I might raise the low boost a bit and see how goes for traction and drivability.

DiRTgarage are you going it for sure or just beer talkin? You will have some stiff experienced well set up cars to compete with, but at least getting out there. As giant will know and might explain there is heaps of time to be gained in years of experience with testing and set up and what parts work and what doesn't etc. How much faster have you gone Russ compared to were you were at 2 years ago??? HEEEEAPS. Two ways to accelerate this advantage is lots of testing, hook up with a workshop with track experience that supply parts, use other people experience with the score on the board and get advice, and use motorsports engineers, and money helps. Lots more to it than going in a straight line.

Yep Sydney kid is helping me with suspension set up and rear sway bar now etc, and some fine tuning, so I can at least get closer to giant and lofty and maybe others.

John I;m curious about the weight of your car i;m guessing around high 1300 kg;s

With out my front diff this is a good guess but wrong. Not quite that light yet. Did someone mention something about being secrets. I will say it is getting lighter every day.

Hey Chris and Anderew. Glad you boys can make it to the day.

Chris, you are on :)

Andrew, should be mate. 8.15-8.30 should be ok to rock up. Might be worth giving oran park a call on 46 46 1004 regarding fuel and pricing as we have nothing to do with that :D

OK the bar has just been raised for the 5th July!!!!!

Just had a look at the entries and noticed Mackie and Lucas have entered in the exiges!!!!!!!!!!

Peter Lucas just did a 1.34 around the creek on the weekend, while Tim Mackie did a 1.37!!!!!!!

So Lucas is 5 seconds faster than Berry around the creek and 9 seconds faster than Penlington.

Yes these times were done on slicks. These are proper race cars that have entered and are able to run in open. We are all up sh!t creek.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
