Posted this in a new thread since I can't edit the old one.

Ok Gave hume a call. I reckon probably the best time to Book is:

29th June Sunday or 6th July Sunday some time.

Cheapest way to do it is to book the whole track out for an hour. Cost is 540$ So if we get 10 people it's 54$ each

Maximum of 10 karts in one race. If we get more than 10 people wanting in, could probably work something out, but would probably need some like 16-20 people, and then we'd book it out for two hours.

Format would be : 3 x 15 minute races or 4 x 10 minutes races. (plenty to tire you out lol).

If people are in on this, please advise what days you can make it or not. If we get 8 or 10 will book this in. Booking the track exclusively for an hour is the cheapest, means only us are on it too. Hume also has a BBQ etc to use.

Yes for 2 either date currently.

Can you check the format. 4 x 10min = 40 mins allowing for breaks we should be able to get 5x10min in I think.

Comparing to normal prices of $45 for 3 x 10 min and we don't need to have any specific numbers, which is the better deal?

You can try but trust me I think after the 4th race you'll be pretty knackered.

Checked the format on the phone. I think other wise, each 10min race is charged at 17$ so thats 68$ for 4 races compared to 54$ if we get 10 people. A 5 minute break between each race isn't too much anyway.

Can have a look of doing it individually, but it is around 17$ for a 10 min race, or a bit more for a 15 minute race.

I agree that after 3 or 4 races the arms are very tired. If you ask the guys how much 30 mins is (3*10 min races) you will find it is a LOT cheaper than the 10 min race by its self.

This way we don't need 10 people and we don't need a set time.

The price for 3*10 mins sessions is only like $40 but you can get caught up with slower people or real arseholes if you don't hire it out

Ok Unless I cant count looks like 7 people have said yes so far. Will give it a day or two before I decide to book in, looks like 29th of June.

Also just to cover myself, need to tell you guys you will need to sign a disclaimer form, just incase something happens as usual, you will also either need to bring a helmet or use one there.

Probably a bit too late to book in an hour now, this thing slipped my mind, bit short of 10 people too, but happy to turn up sunday arvo to have a go just booking in individiually, or reschedule to some other time.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
