Thanks BB :laugh: The trick is not to go the wrong way or hit any cones..which sound easy :wub:

I get into a bit of a tizz when in the car and have learnt that what looks smooth and slow on the track is in actual fact deceptionally fast! All the guys that where relaxed and doing smooth runs where doing awesome times..So I will have a crack at that next time.

For my first go at a dutton I think I did alright..Most of us Rookies where getting so nervous and where walking the motorkhana events just so it was imprinted into our brain. I think the whole "you only get 2 goes at it" and the penaltys for hitting a cone (5 seconds) or going wrong direction (worst score plus 10seconds) was a bit of pressure. But I had fun and thats the main thing I am glad I tried it and now that I have one under my belt more confident of what to expect at my next one. Plus the people are really encouraging and helpful and friendly..

The hard motorkhana layouts.

Plus the tool awards where classic some of the vetrans of Duttons where doing the most silly things on and off the track..Like missing pit lane exit so handraking in the middle of the track and reversing up the straight of Oran Park to go the right way :P

Excellent media publicity for motorsport and driver training!

LOL

How many points did that cost ya?

Well I went Wrong Direction and Hit a Cone so

WD = Worst score plus 10points

Cone = 5 points

Stopping on the track on my run to get cone out from under my car = priceless :)

So I got 1:42 seconds on a course that should take you 35seconds

Haha,

Got some good pics from another angles Jess, keep forgetting to post them up. will try to do it tonight.

Yeah please post them up want to see my reaction when I came around the corner to hot and saw the cone , was like this :):):D

painful!!!

hope you demolished that cone! haha

hey great work Jess!

its more a fun event than super serious motorsport, so as long as you have a great time (30 events in 3 days sounds good to me) you have done well. the people who treat it like bathurst 1000 have the wrong attitude I reckon.

well done!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
