Yeah I rode out there hoping to run... got to the gates at 5:15pm and got told the bad news :D

At least I'm only 15 minutes away from the track. There was another guy on a motorbike there.. he'd ridden down from Newcastle (2 hours). He then had to ride home in the pissing down rain.. poor bastard. It took him and I 30 minutes in traffic just to get to my place, I was soaked when I get home... hate to imagine how bad he'd be!!

You should try coming from Soldiers Point (Port Stephens) booking hotel for two nights (before and after trackday) only for the asswipes to call it off just because it rained the night before. It didnt rain all day, and then try to swindle us out of our entry fee as well. That sucks.

Had a good day at the Golden Slipper though to make up for it.

if you get there at 430 445 you should be near the start of the gates. go straight to sign in then scrutineering and hopefully should be one of the first ones to race.

and ring them up on the day to make sure it's not raining etc

I've been in the same boat. I was going to go with some mates but rained the day before, so they called it off.

Drag racers should harden the f**k up, and learn to race in the wet. Have the tyre guys develop a wet weather drag racing tyre.

If circuit racers can do it in open wheelers on near slicks because the skies opened up in the middle of a lap, surely drag racers can have a go too. If it rains during staging and they're on dry tyres, pull them off. If it rains in the middle, learn throttle modulation or back off.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
