Tarmac Rallying Perpetual Thread

[Snowman]

I just put a magic windscreen in my car. Be interested to know details of other places to get them though as my current source (YT) only had the one and I wasn't able to find any other local sources.

In other news I got some THC stage details yesterday. Apparently Barwite looks like fun as its nothing but 9's + 10's for the first 2.5kms! I really need to get out there and have a look at the roads.

I have been told by JA that if you are going to recce Mt Buller tell the base office that this is what you are doing and they might waiver the $35 entry fee.

Magic Screen? Heated?

TT

[Snowman]

Yeah heated. Since I don't even have a fan anymore I figured it was important!

[sav man]

I'll be interested to see how you like the heater. I asked some people about them when I started my car, and some hate looking through them, and some don't see them. I decided to save monies, and kept the heaterbox in my car for the sake of 4-5kg

[Snowman]

I don't see them. I'm someone who doesn't even turn the window wipers on when i rains at times.

[paulR32gtr]

haha hear chris at 1:52

[Snowman]

Actually that was me. The car wiggled a tiny little bit - mainly through the steering wheel - when we hit some standing water and I wasn't expecting it - but at 200km/hr it gave me a minor heart attack!

[paulR32gtr]

Mate that vid makes me scared! Starting to think I need my head read building a tarmac rally car..... naaaah

[Marlin]

When I ran YT's old R34 I didn't notice the heater bars on the screen either.

The wiring for it did catch fire twice though.

[Snowman]

Haha - yeah Chris has re-done the wiring for the windscreen on that car now

[Marlin]

haha, yeah, kinda hard to concentrate on a stage when there's the strong smell of burnin wiring and smoke from the dash vents.

Its been so long since I have been in a seat Havent been on that side since May

Do you find it takes a bit to get into the groove??

Im probably just being paronoid but have always been a bit of a stresser and being in another new seat can be a bit overwhelming at first just getting up to speed with the new driver I guess...

Im probably just being weird like usual LOL

[navdan]

Hahaha, it can be difficult to get in the groove, but I find that recce gets the bugs out and goes a long way to readying towards actual competition.

I suppose it can be daunting being alongside another 'new' driver, but again...as you know...recce helps!

I wish I could spend the time to do recce...I guess its my own fault aswell...But no driver I have sat next to so far as been in the "main game" so to speak and that serious...So I fly in Nav and Fly out again...

I would love to learn to write my own notes and get that much time off but with my motorsport schedule time off is limited from work as I do so many other events...

Ok will stop being a princess and suck it up...

Just would like more frequent events through out the year to stay ontop of the nerves....

Just venting its been awhile..LOL I am excited tho love MT Buller area its so lush and adventerous!!!!

[Marlin]

Serge owns the Whites car now.

Yes I know...
