Howdy all...

Saturday 28th March 2009.

Now those of you in this scene who have been around for a while, will know that booking Eastern Creek is hard yards… getting a weekend date some say is “impossible” but we have been fortunate to infact secure a date for Autosports for March 2009.

We do infact have two other weekend dates for 2009 although I am not able to confirm the additional dates till after the New Year.

•The day is going to be run with official timing

•The day will have 6 driver trainers (including John Boston)

•Cost is $275 per driver

•There is strictly 70 positions with no exceptions

•14 cars per group max

•5 groups running 15 minute sessions

Gates open at 7.00am

We will have allocated pit garages for every position at no extra charge.

All drivers are to be ready for the on-track briefing which starts at 8.00am sharp. This will include your group infact driving onto the track with an instructor to infact stop and get out of the car and look at the various conditions for each corner… you will have the instructor explaining the best approach to apex’s and braking markers.

At 9.00am sharp the experienced drivers group will start their first session.

At 9.00am sharp the newbie groups will go into the upstairs rooms and receive further instruction about the track and how to get the most out of it as safe as possible.

By 9.20am the newbie’s driver training sessions upstairs will have finished and the second group will be out on the track.

We will run the group sessions all day and will not be stopping for lunch.

•Payment needs to be made within 14 days of booking or the position will be listed as available to others (we have to pay for the entire event upfront)

Now i know that March next year sounds like a long way away... considering that we have Christmas coming up, then the New Year break most people will not be back to work till Feb 09. I also will be out of the country from December 28th 2008 till January 31st 2009. I have to pay for this event upfront to suffice the desires of Eastern Creek management. I want to have this all arranged, booked and paid for so i am not going to be worrying about it come February next year.

Couple of other points;

1.Once positions are booked as stated above, I require payment in full within 21 days. If payment is not made the confirmed and reserved position will be cleared and offered publicly.

2.Should someone for any reason whatsoever not be able to attend after making payment, the position can be transferred but only after officially informing me personally so i can make sure the payment records are in absolute order.

3.Passengers are not permitted under any circumstances

4.Driver trainers are available to all patrons at no additional charge

5.Official timing is provided at no extra charge. Times will be recorded and posted up online before the end of the day

6.Spectators are permitted at no extra charge. No children under the age of 16 are permitted in the pit area without adult supervision.

7.All drivers must bring there own helmet and be wearing suitable closed in footwear as well as long sleeve shirts and pants.

I am absolutely stoked to be able to confirm this date... I want to make sure that the organisational aspects are first class so that i can secure more events for us at Eastern Creek.

Marty will probably ask me anyway as I am involved in the day.

The Radical should be allowed but not your car Michele, sorry.

Your car Michele is an open wheeler and is not allowed on the circuit with sedan cars. The Radical has all 4 wheels inside the body work :)

This is 90% certain but will confirm with the person who is putting there insurance up for the day.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.

      Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.

      Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
