Ive actually never done this event with semi's!!

Last year I took them up but the tyre shop stripped two nuts so I couldnt change tyres, I was still 3 seconds quicker than the year before on street tyres!

You got to remember that your semi's wont warm up as quick, and when they do, your run is over :P

but in saying that, I'll be in semi's....whether its the street semi's of the falkens or my old, shagged r888's

Hey Fellas,

Day 2 looks good, but how is day 1 run? You do a sprint down conrod from forest elbow with two cars at once? side by side? Stange concept.

How quick does it book out? I need a few weeks to have some car changes made and have a test run at QR before I book in.

cheers

Michael

Hey Michael!

Would be good if you can make it!

It can sell out pretty quick, within a few weeks.

The conrod sprint...(here comes an essay! haha)

There are 4 groups.

group 1 goes up from the pits, up conrod. you get 3/4's (most of the way actually) the way up, and you do a u turn at the bathrust light car club home driveway. you then go back down

conrod a bit, break into 2 lanes.

Its hard to describe, but with conrod, theres one ditch, go up a hill, and then it goes into the chase?

You basically start at that ditch on level ground. You can do a skid to warm up tyres (cant get on the brake though!)

Then bascially its a drag race - up the hill, then down into the chase.

through the chase, obviusly the quicker car would get the better line, unless they are waaaay in front!

then into murrays, and go across the start finish line and thats it!

then the next group goes up and so on!

For us liners - we are class SV over 3000

Last year we spoke to the organisers and I think they will allow us to enter in Type 2 or 3 over 3L. It's crazy to say that an R32 GTR can be type 2 but an R33 GTST is SV.

That said, I am out. I've just bought a track bike so no dosh for this.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
