What happens if more than 30 people want to go? I guess it'd be a waste casue there wouldnt be enough time to get many runs in. Also do you pay at the gate or is it pre paid

We will organize payments closer to the date. At this stage it’ll be payments deposited into the SAU QLD bank account to lock in your spot on the list.

We want to keep it to 30 cars so everyone gets plenty of runs!!

So how many runs would you normally get at a TnT??

If you got there at gates open and you kept returning to the line and lining up again on a normal night maybe 5 or 6 runs...

It all depends on how many people damage the track (oil spils etc)... Also depends on how many are there...

But all factors considered 5 or 6 would be a average...

So this event with 3 hours and 30 cars could be like 20 runs at least... Given you return to line up again straight away and no one drops oil...

Given a normal night costs $38 for 5 or 6 runs and this is $48 for heaps more, I cant pass up this sorta value... :)

I've had as little as 3 runs and as many as 15 at a test and tune. Depends on the numbers.

30 cars is not may. You will be surprised how quickly they run through. Budget for about 2 cars a minute once its up and rolling. It will be bloody hot so the more cool down time between runs the better.

I would say you could comfortably handle up to 50 cars and every body will get more than enough runs to keep them happy.

I was thinking the same thing Noel, 30 cars will mean there'll be gaps of time where there's no-one on the track, cos you do want your car to have a bit of a rest period in between. We definitely need to open up another 10 spots IMHO.

    • You could try some less aggressive pads on the rear. I found (a long time ago when all my brakes were stock 32) that using the same (Bendix Ultimate) pads at both ends made the rear bias excessive. I strongly suspect that the stock Nissan pads probably use a different material, but aftermarket pads will usually be the same material regardless of what pad they are put onto. That bias situation did get better when I put R33 calipers on the front AND used the same pads - just transferred them from old to new calipers. So you should feel the difference with the change you're making. But certainly do not forget the option to change the rear pads down a grade or two.
    • Ha ha, sorry dose, I wasn't meaning to argue the point on "it'll do f**k all". I was only shining a bit of a light in the flawed logic you used with it mate.   I 100% agree that there is zero point changing stock manifold with a stock turbo, unless the manifold is f**ked. And only reason I'd ponder aftermarket manifold on a stock turbo would be that I'm too scared too look at the potential ludicrous prices people are asking for a stock manifold! Ha ha ha
    • Shhh... Muricans don't understand the idea of metric so can't find half the stuff we have for modifying JDM cars 😛
    • That may or may not be me that replied 😅
    • Your response is extremely similar to what someone on the Haltech tuning tips Facebook page answered me. I take it you're also on there haha. Dyno is booked for June 27th and that's exactly what I'll be doing. I also realized I never setup a pulse width adder table so I went and did that last night. Made a fair bit of fueling difference in low load areas.  I sorted out my power steering belt woes. It was an alignment issue and it has now survived multiple instances of abuse that would have killed it prior. I also changed my fuel pump hose. The hose I replaced looks nothing like the legit gates hose I received. Real hose is actually 5/16" and is labelled properly. Amazon refunded me but has been giving me grief about my nasty review I'm trying to leave... I keep having to modify it for acceptance. I want to make sure the point gets across to others.  Last issue I want to deal with soon is the slight vibration I get in my steering wheel with my GKTech Spacers in front. My annoyance has grown and I'm at a point where I want it resolved. I've tried everything I can come up with like clean spacers thoroughly, tighten in star pattern, retorque, have wheels rebalanced 4-5x with a variety of machines (2x with a Hunter elite). I've also taken the spacers off and remounted multiple times just in case.  I'm starting to think my GKtech spacers are at fault. I'll pop a wheel off and toss a dial indicator on tomorrow to verify runout and parallelism.
