Not sure if it has been mentioned already but it would be good if their was some kind of indication on the car if the actual owner of the car is driving, maybe some kind of colour sticker system on the windscreen.

The MX5 could be. You have read the posts.

Open cars will be doing around the 12's, clubsprint cars around the 18's I guess.

Interesting idea about the stickers, but may I ask why??

I think JP is thinking with his head and not his heart. Of course he wants to drive himself, but he wants the best for his business. Gives him more time to walk around the pits and answer questions about his toy.

I fail to see what you driving his car would do for his business....you could bolt pram wheels on a turd and make it go fast. I think he could do more for his business as a whole by keeping it 'in house' and driving it himself.

LOL that is your thoughts, not ours.

Imagine if every car owner in motorsport actually drove there own cars......from drags to F1. Could be interesting LOL

Not a red MX5 with vodafone over it by any chance?

And WTF is with the Landcruiser in clubsprint class???

+1

lol Paul its big of you to give John grief for not driving when you're putting Luke Searle behind the wheel.

Doesn't look like many people are brave enough to drive their own cars. Gary is. Steve is. Kev Whitehead is. Mark and Russ is (are?). thats the only ones I know who are.

Is your other car coming to play? (the yellow one)

the bloke has proven he is nothing more than a gum flapper, circuit racing is his supposed genre in the motorsport world but has now shown his true colours.

:):(:)

No, no, no ,no. Before all this Time Attack big city lights stuff, John has been running track days through his business since i think 2000, possibly earlier, My first few track days were UAS days and i suspect the choice to run these days were not always fiscally smart ;)

So he has given many customers and Sydney guys friendly and open doors to getting into track days. Now he doesnt need me defending him, but i suspect handing over the keys will be hard for the old bloke. But he is running a business, and if a driver can get him a few spots up the board then its all exposure and results for the car that he has been playing with for years, and his business then its a smart decision.

That all said i cant believe that UAS cannot get its hands on another car for John to compete in? Hell, maybe i need to give John the keys to my car...just so he can marvel at RB20 POWAH!!!!

John will not need to bring his own loo paper to the event....plenty on here willing to lick his arse.

;);):P

footage of john getting out of the car at wakefield looking like he'd singlehandedly driven the Spa 24hr, getting his pit bummy boys to fan him down was some of the most amusing stuff ive ever seen.

this thread was getting rather dull so close to the event...i think it needed a kick in the pants with a bit of "smack talk"

Ok, nothing wrong with an opinion. But it has nothing to do with wanting to be his lap boy. It has to do with respect.

errr, i will leave it there.

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.

      Infiniti Q60 Navigation Update

      By Chocolate Cheesecake. · Posted

      Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
