Good work Daz :P

Next time I'll remember that bloody ABS switch.

Oh and I have to agree with Chris - Russell you are now a RWD gun. Some of your driving on the weekend was awesome. I look forwards to watching you and Ryan go head to head at Masters.

Well done to all.

Stand outs for me are:

Daz - Good times all day without one mistake.

Ryan - Let someone else win RWD.

Chris Stacey - Great results for a first time.

Russell - Some great times

hmmm, people are catching up.

money cant buy talent, but it can by power apparently... so i think its time to invest.

Congrats Daz.

blahhh buying power is overrated :)

stock(ish) ftw! (or 21st in this case)

i agree, but i must admit i think some power would make things a bit more fun. sticky tyres and 140kw isnt very exciting under power. i want somewhat lairy power. similar to the green datto, slightly less than big red :) anything to make me laugh.

more power would be fun, if it was free...haha

is that what your cars putting out? mines in the same region but with crap tyres and stock suspension (besides sways)

stock power, all 112kw of it (at the fly mind you) , street rubber,

only mods are springs and sway bars

20th!

all you need to do is avoid the cones and keep it straight

that being said I will be back in a diffrent car next time I do these, time for RWD turbo I do think

yeah, pretty much. for dutton we borrowed a Powerfc and got a whole 158kw out of it.. now it is back to standard comp with a little bit of boost... so im guessing 140.. maybe 150.

all you need is a set of coilovers to get a huge difference. im liking the semis on the front so i can stop and streets on the rear so it slides a bit more.

Just noticed a huge standout time! Mark in the 180b got the fastest second rwd run on th e mini wang of 25.95 in the 180b with 50kws and shit tyres. wtf thats fast?!

140kw and your still 1 sec faster than me on the long wang and about 2 sec faster on the skid pan (when I don't hit anything... which isn't often)... your not allowed to get more power!... in fact I think next time you should be forced to put the seats back in ... actually you should be forced to take out my seats and have them in your car as well lol

I'm coming with RE55s next time... might make up for my lack of skill... 'might' :)

wish I could have stayed for the battles, been watching the vids and they look like heaps of fun... best part of the day IMO

Yeah I like that setup too especially on the skidpan. That's what I ran last time.

btw. If you buy power so will I :) I'm chasing you until I get a win. haha.

Nick. Did you find out what is wrong with your car?

      Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?

      Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS

      Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
