More SAU pics will go up tomorrow night.

Cheers,

Craig.

I hit a 1:46.27 on the back track in the after noon. Yep Brad your best was the 1:46:07 (FAG)

I did a flat 30s on the 2nd skid pan course. :P

i think corinne is having trouble deceiphering the extra runs and stuff, or missing extra pieces of paper!

19. 1.64.51 - 1.52.19 1 minute, 64 seconds? Did they come 11ty 3rd for that effort? :P

Thanks for the times Corinne.

Will the rest of the back track time (third runs and afternoon) go up later?

I know I got into the 1:44s in the afternoon, I am just curious to compare to the rest of the afternoon runners (my competitive side coming out).

The layout for the back track was modified for the afternoon. you cant compare the times from the morning with the afternoon.

Yes but most people were quicker in the afternoon.

Why do only the first 2 runs count? if there's only to be 2 runs that count shouldn't they be the fastest ones? Which would most likely be the later ones as people start to improve and the track warms up?

I came 11ty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 11ty Last!

Because the track changed after the first 2. That's how they are being run. You all did a sighting lap.

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 馃槩 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
