Ok time to ramp this up people. We need:

A) Excitement.

B) More entrants.

Can you all please tell all the people who you know like track or could be interested in it as we need more entrants to make this financially viable. If you are a keen and helpful club member put it in your signature and let's get this show on the road!!

I've told most of my friends... and their response has been generally soft saying they lack the monetary capacity :P

Won't stop me going, especially since I have paid lol

i've got another question, if i have my normal daily rims on the front, and stockies on the back, both with decent tread, is this an issue? all the rims and tyres are the same size, i just don't want to waste my daily tyres if i dont have to, but i will if i need to

You will probably go through front tyres too Zane so it might be worth changing the fronts too.

hhmmm i've thought this would happen, but my fronts aren't very good tyres so gives me an excuse to use them up n get better ones, man i go through some tyres :)

Quick question - Are there gonna be any "official" photo peoples there? Like Oz-event Photo or someone?

I'm official :)

We may have a few photographers there on the day. But nothing like HPI or anything.

Just seeing At some part of the day are we aloud to drift? sometimes they say yes but not sure with you guys. :(

No drifting allowed on the track at anytime especially down the straight. ( You will be pulled off if we see anything ) If we have enough time we may have a drift session or 2.

I'm official :(

Of course you are Corinne :-)

There are those guys called Oz-event photo who i might try and contact if that's cool with the club?

On other days they rock up in the morning, start snapping away, and by the end of the day have CD's ready to go of your car. They were around $30-$40 bucks, but you get nice hi-res shots

probably a 35-45 profile. on say a 235mm wide tyre.

the compound and wall stiffness of the side wall will make a greater difference than the profile though.

i.e. while a lower profile tyre has more inherent sidewall stiffness, a tyre of higher quality sidewall (in regards to stiffness design) with a larger profile will generally speaking, perform better.

I am! CAMS says I am! I even have a special book!

Anyways I doubt anyone would want to pay that much for their photos. (I'm sure I don't) I'm sure Xmetal or link can do a better deal then that. I would prefer to support their work.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
