i'd love to enter, but i have some questions

would they let me enter with a leaking water pump?

can i borrow a helmet, or do they lend them out or something?

can i join SDMA on the day or is it worth sending my form off during the week?

do i enter on their web site or how does that work?

i sent my CAMS licence forms away last week and kept the 30 day licence part, they accept that dont they?

and last but not least, do i need to mount the fire extinguisher with a certain type of screw/bolt, like high speed steel or something?

whoa soo many questions :P

Questions are gooooood, it means you're interested :)

1) Depends how bad it is, do you want us to have a look at it and let you know?

2) I should have a open face one here you can try on for size

3) You can join SDMA (and for those who haven't, CAMS as well) on the day, just put that on the form where it says member number, just say "new member, will pay on Sunday"

4) Easiest way to enter is to right click the entry download link, save the file, edit with your details - you are the entrant (owner) and driver so need to fill same details in both sections - in the CAMS licence section I would say you have the 30 day slip but no number yet - pay the $70 into the SDMA bank account listed and copy/paste the receipt details into an email and attach the entry form and send to the email address listed on the form (BEFORE 8pm Wednesday to get the saving).

5) I would call CAMS and ask them to fax a confirmation to you that they have received your application as a backup

6) and last but not least - No special screws required

I think you will enjoy this, it doesn't have the wear and tear of circuit racing, but has the time trials fun of trying to beat your previous time. The club is also very supportive.

I'll PM my mobile number and if you want to swing by, give me a yell.

I'll be there taking photos, Both my car and the friends car I was suppose to use as a back up have come across a few more dramas........such is life....lol

Michele - got a couple of good shots of the black beast. let me know if you want a copy

Cheers

Would of liked to have gone to this, but have a CISCO exam I really should study for on the next day :down:, so a no go for me. I will get on there one day. I am still good to go for Texikhana.

Why don't you come out for a look and start getting a feel for it

Agreed! And the Formula Holden is more fun to see in real life than just the pics. Nice driving Michele (I assume noone beat you after I left). Thanks for the info/help, I'll have a bash next time :blush:

Fastest Time of Day :blush::blush:;):bunny: :bunny: :bunny::(:):banana:

they said I made history with the club by being the first lady to ever take out FTD and they said quite possibly made history for Hillclimbs in general

Congratulations to Jeno (Tarmac), Jo and Chris (unSteadyEddie) who all achieved PB's today.

I'll let everyone know about the next hillclimb in May as we get closer, after that there won't be any hillclimbs in June, but they will make up for it with a 2 lap event in July but will only allow 40 entries.

Anyone who joins SDMA between now and July will have their licences through to end June 2009 (bonus months) so it would be great to have you there... if you are a member of SAU, you can get an SDMA day membership for $10 (limit 3 times a year) but can be credited that money if you join (towards membership)

They take a few days to publish the results and I'll put them up here when they come through... in the meantime, my best time today was 44.57

Tarmac, Jo & Steady can post up what their PB's were today.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
