Who cares if you can see the whole track or not from one vantage point? By that measure QR is brilliant, you can see the whole track from your pit bay. As a spectator, I'd rater see a couple of good corners up close than some speck of a car over the other side of the track that you can't really hear or see what its actually doing. That's not good spectating. Besides, you're never going to get too many people to spectate at Superlap. Its not as exciting to watch as head to head racing, and even State Championship rounds don't really pull crowds. Do it for the drivers who are paying the bucks to enter. The ones who are coming to watch will still come to watch whether its at EC or OP. Probably get less spectators driving out to Wakey rather than more.

i thought we established that noone likes to watch head to head racing here already.. rallies are time based, targa is time based, and superlap is time based.. and everyone loves them.

head to head has had its day... too many rules and restrictions.

and as a spectator... i agree... id rather see a good couple of corners than the whole track with its boring bits... i think e/c would be better because its a bit more manicured and looked after than op, its visually better than op with a better grandstand and view points.

op is 3.5 hrs for me anyway... wakey is out of the question unless i stay overnight there and for that... the event needs to be a bit better with the timeboards etc.

Well I actually bought some 2nd hand semis for them and then some good street tyres came up. Federal 595's. Almost brand new. They'll be my street rims so street tyres are better.

Troy... Hmmmm... Not yet.

Picked up the latest issue of 'Motive' DVD during the week which has 90-odd minutes of Superlap coverage, some really good footage, well worth a look (and the thread bump hopefully!)

I thoughts they planned on running two events in 2009? I hope they are thinking about two rounds next year. I hate to admit it but i think the second round should be held in either WA or perhams SA. There are some serious cars in both states that dont make the track to the East Coast....and would make good numbers for the event.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
