lol I was thinking the same - all of these tracks show the charm which is missing from new tracks like EC and PI. I love the undualations, roughness and wierd corner angles

I have 1991 and 1992 of the Bathurst races, but the Bathurst one has severe audio vs video warp, the sync is nasty.

1991 is in perfect condition though, and a dream to watch and remember how the Skylines slaughtered the rest of the field :P

It's also on Youtube as well.

B.

Bring back Amaroo Park !!

Was thinking the same thing!! What a track!! What ended up happening to it??

Yes agreed!! There's something thats just so raw about the whole thing (like at the mallala race the photographer standing in the entrance to the pit lane taking photographs!)Try that now see how far you get!!!

Thanks for the video's as well, will match my highlights video of the 91/92 bathurst that i got for my birthday last year :P

I loved those videos of the 91 series, I really miss the old days of racing with more variety in the cars and even the mid race chats to the drivers, I'd love to see the 90 series too with the old skylines and how Jim Richards did in the championship before the GTR and even the first races with the GTR!

It's sad that it's now a housing estate.

even sader is that the housing estate they put on it was 1 acre blocks not your average 1/4 or 1/8 acre blocks. so in the end there are only about 10 houses built on the whole site.

Oran Park is going the same way (Housing Estate) in the next 2 years so don't miss it!

    • 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.
