Not to worry...

Should be OK next time - but hey, you've been told that already by how many?

Went thru a STOP sign on my 1st go.

Besides, I hear that...

there's a f**king flamin mongrel driving inspector around Vic somewhere & his Ferrari is being driven by his g/f

(This is 11-12 odd years ago now so I am not sure if you can still do it.)

My instructor came along for the ride on my P's test and sat in the back seat. He was well known by most of the examiners in the area. It just so happened he knew the examiner I got and they proceeded to spend the whole test gas-bagging to each other. I don't think the examiner gave a shit if I did the right thing or not. Try that! Works everytime.

i remember my test, i passed first time, it was a breaze, i guess im just an ace driver. :D

+1

L's = passed first go

red P's= ^

greens= ^

Full = ^

my reds was piss easy, 15 mins max and did the reverse park, parallel and 3 point.

The $200 must've been a bit of a sting, but you'll know what to expect for next time. Good luck! :down:

The way i see it is , Ok you have to get your red p's well...lets just get into the car and drive like an 80 year old retired baker.Once you get it what can they do , you can drive how you want to.In short form just drive like that and you will be a sure pass.

We never had anything like that.

Drove to town picked up the local copper, went for a drive. He asked how far I’d stop from a rail crossing. I said 500m. Why so far? To be on the safe side I said. Did a hill start. He said you didn’t use the handbrake. I said didn’t need to. He got out; put a bit of chalk behind the wheel. Now do it and if you crush the chalk you fail. Didn’t crush the chalk.

OK now what about my tractor licence? Where’s the tractor. On the farm, wanna go see? No she’s right.

How about my semi licence. Where’s the semi? Just stop that one (one of Dad’s).

Got in and went for a drive. These things are big he says, never been in one before. Can you reverse up that street? No worries, back it up, tear the bitumen to bits turning the tri-axle.

Shit, didn’t know it would do that, let’s go back to the station.

All good he says, just remember you can’t drive any better today because you’ve now got a licence than you could yesterday.

True.

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
