It's with regret that I have to annouce the removal of the PIARC Round from the SAU-Vic Championship. This WAS marked down as our 8th and sprint final round for 2008.

The round was supposed to be run on the 9th of November under the PIARC banner, but the Phillip Island Auto Racing Club have decided to shift this sprint meet to the 29th and 30th of November. (30th being the timed sprint day) PIARC Calendar:- Click here

This date change to the 30th conflicts with our club Show and Shine and Xmas BBQ. The committee has investigated the possibility of moving our SnS, but this is not possible.

I'd like to highlight that this change was out of our control.

Sad news.....

My 2c......maybe just keep this round as part of the championship as a couple of guys I have spoken to will probably go to this anyway. While I love to attend the SnS as last years was pretty good the opportunity to do PI is pretty tempting.

    • 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.
