ah k, is the silvier volvo the arch rival of the red volvo 242 sedan that is at city race regularly killing other cars(like black supra from GIS2)?

are there moer cityrace videos online? i have been too a few sites(cityrace.nu) but they dont have much media online if they even have any most times

There oughta be a few cityrace movies online, check the adress below...

ftp://rejsa.mer.nu/tbbb/

Has lots of streetracing movies etc...

I'm not sure about the red 242, not sure I've seen it... The Supra

in GiS2 is pushing about 450 Hp @ RW so I'm not so sure it would

get its ass kicked too easy :P

The "new" 'silver' (acually its more grey-ish) is new for this year

and to my knowledge they dont have any arch rivals... :)

what ones have the volvo's in them ?

The one from Tullinge has some volvos in it, both 60's volvos, 80's

and later models. The one I'm talking about is in the Birka #4 vid.

It's frickin fast. The start in the race its in sucks because the driver

didn't get enough turbo pressure in the start, the NOS system

driving the pressure up failed. But he gave the thumbs up anyway.

Cops were pretty much on the way, so ... not much to do about 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.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
