They do endurance racing too...

Must say, the hillclimb has got me interested... :P

Marco, for you, i will look into it.

I have a few other events in the planning stages at the moment so i will put it on the list. We can definately do something later in the year. :P

Might see if Blacksun is prepared to put their trophy up for grabs on this event as it is a "Karting Event". Mike and Nige, let me know what you think.

I've done the UltraFastKarts thing on Barbagallos but TBH, what we did at the proper kart track was a lot more fun. The karts are very similar (I think the ones we used for the SAUWA event were a bit faster) but with the big wide Barbagallo track wasn't very fun with the karts compared to the International Kartway.

I would be opposed to a move from Wanneroo International Kart Hire.

The reasoning is from a competitive and a cost nature,

Yes racing on Barbs would be great but the smaller , closer racing up the road has been widely commented as being the preffered option.

The cost is another factor, In getting the same price with the owners at WIKH I has agreed to host at least 3 events a year there, so moving would not be in the interest of BlackSun Imports and of course the throphy event we setup.

Hmmm, I see Bubba and Mike aren't that interested...

Two points.

1) Bubba, did you do the hillclimb??

2) Mike, we could still do the 3 races at the International Track, but maybe we could do a hill climb as a one off, and unaffiliated with the 'Blacksun Karting Champship'.. :(

Nah just the short track, but like I said, due to the size (width) of the track, racing is more fun at WIKH.

Allow the Karting gods to consult and we will get back to you.

By the way, that trophy looks shit hot at Brads joint!

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
