Nice car, I admired it for a while especially the 370mm rotors up front. :)

good to meet you today...always good to put a face to the name. Well done on your times today.

Johnny hope you have Mika Hakkinen booked for EC at next event.

You will need him :(

we might have to put chopped up aluminium cans on our boot lid too.

seems to work a treat!

well team maserati just got back to Melbourne and we are stuffed! Superlap was great, a well organised event for a first time effort! It was a pretty entertaining day with its mix of offs, close calls and unfortunate controversy... and i can safely say i have never seen so much smoke come from one car... and for so long! Big thanks to SAU NSW for the box access, muchly appreciated.

and unfortunate controversy..

whats the go with "couples and girls only" admitted to nightclubs around these parts?....Dave looked shocking in a bikini....but seemed to obtain admission to various establishments....Bouncers are not too fussy around here as the word 'unkept' was heard on more than one occasion.

your refering to the series6 rx7 lol his exhaust was too laud, then he blowns his seals around the track and he keeps driving a full lap with smoke pouring out :banana:

Like the s2000??? :banana:

My award for the day goes to the dude in the Land Cruiser. He had that beast hauling and even beat a couple of Nissans. :P

+1... I told a couple of people about it... they didn't believe me till I showed em some pics :D

Hey everyone no excuses for me I am stoked. Had a great day considering the amount of track time our group got 17 laps ( thanks QSR :ban: ) Thanks to all the SAU peoples that showed up it really helped the confidence coming down pit lane. And congrats to Chris I felt your frustration in the second and third sessions but I suppose that is racing???? We will have to get better so next time we can be in group 2 or maybe 1 :)

Congratulations to the winners and the drivers of the landcruzer for not falling over through turn 1, that car flys in a straight line OMG.

PS: Neil my car does sound shit now :(

Cheers,

Ryan

And only two goes on the trailer!!! lol

Yourself and Chris did the old 33 gtst's proud ;)

It was parked near the datto ute yeah?? I was admiring your car wishing I owned one instead of my boat!

Congrats to all participants and winners, I had a blast watching and catching up with a few mexicans....

And big thanks to Duncan for the corporate box... even if we did have a few invasions of non members at times.... but we got that sorted fairly quickly... I mean honestly... 3 signs yet they still just walk on in... Kel I believe we may need to make the signs ALOT bigger next time and a little line at the bottom "all trespassers shot on sight" :D

So...

Now we have the official results etc...what about the other winners from all the many other classes??

Mine was...

"fastest gun metal grey r33 gtst"

"fastest Decepticon..."

lol

what about you guys? haha

The RX7 didnt do himself any favours driving down the pit lane the wrong way, then driving around the track in the manner he did. Surely the officials needed to be tougher on entrants doing the wrong thing? But was very well run for a first outing.

No doubt the next event will be better again. Big problem cars are only going to go faster, which means some of us will get left further behind :)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
