Nissan Sports Car Spectacular, Qld Raceway, July 8


Recommended Posts

Nissan Sports Car spectacular to be held at Qld Raceway (Willowbank) - July 8

Specialist car racing will have a new face when the first annual Time Attack Nissan Meeting hits Qld Raceway on Tuesday, July 8. Nissan Sports Car owners from around the Southeast will be pitted against each other in a race against the clock to determine who is Queensland fastest Nissan driver.

Sponsored by NISMO, Motul Oil and BMC Air Filters, this promises to be a great event with side attractions including: demo cars, a dyno competition, motorkhana (race around the cones), a D.J. and a host of exciting giveaways.

In preparation for the event, NISMO representative and event coordinator Chika Sakane, said the event will showcase the great diversity that motorsports has in Queensland and provide a new forum to demonstrate the true strength of Nissan sports cars.

"Nissans are some of the most impressive sports cars in the market today but they are often limited to simply being daily drivers," said Ms Sakane. "This event gives Nissan drivers the opportunity to really blow the cobwebs out of their performance vehicles in a fun and safe environment."

Entrance to this great new event is absolutely FREE.

For Nissan owners, racing costs $110 but places are filling fast, so book now. Visit www.timeattack.com.au for details or ring Link International on (07) 3382 5000.

Paid and ready. Can't wait and have the new cam for in car footage arriving soon.

Hey Geoff, bit off topic but what sorta mounting system are you using for your camera... I just purchased a manfrotto 241v ($299) and it still vibrates like a paint shaker...

Even with the satabiliser rod connected to the floor its still way too rough...

Col, I have one of these coming and planning on a few more

Check the video on the front page. The only movement is the car and there is one with the car having a sudden stop and it barely moves.

This is the local supplier [email protected] and only does the motorsport design. With CAMS bringing in rules regarding camera weight (camera must not be greater than 100 grams) these are now ideal for obtaining footage during races.

Looks good and the vids are only small window but that would be enough for most.

This event is booked out morning and afternoon. Make sure you get out there at 1pm for the festivities.

Thanks to everyone who has booked in and volunteered their time to come and help.

See you there.

Paul

Make sure I get a copy of all the video so Kegz can make a video for a pizza night !!

Thanks Geoff, yeah i was looking for a mounting system to mount one of the new Canon flash memory 1920x1080 high def units for the drags & for the motorbike...

I had a read of the instructions for the mount i bought and what do you know I set it up all wrong and it works perfectly in the car now :P

Kegz I have a few in-car vids I could send you from a couple of previous Time-Attacks to use for the pizza night vid if you want.

I'll burn some on a disc and bring along to Tueday?

    • 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.
