Hey guys

Just a quick question for today... Who knows of any great roads in Victoria that are worth travelling to just to drive on.

Looking for anything with a nice large selection of corners, that DOESNT require doing anything that will cause trouble.

I.e a nice 80-100kmh speed. There is nothing really locally (Bendigo) that really fits the bill, hence the need to look towards something to maybe make an excuse for a road trip. Ive heard the Great Ocean Road is aight. But im thinking it may be just a fraction to far for a simple day trip. Any thoughts???

Luke.

Black spur is nice, as are a lot of the roads in the dandenong mountains area. I've only been there a couple of times but they were awesome.

Having said that, the G.O.R is without a doubt one of the most spectacular roads I've driven on in Victoria and I would highly recommend going there.

black spur

great ocean rd

roads around gembrook

roads around back of ringwood / warrandyte (look up tindals rd)

roads around emerald

any of these will do, a great tip is to do these during the week

on weekends forget it, traffic and muppet city

I'm always going to warrandyte and area's around there for a bit of a drive.

Looking forward to heading to the black spur and great ocean road over the next couple of weeks as I havent been there in along time >,<

RedHill

Aurthurs seat

The run from Somers -Pt Leo- Cape Schank- St Andrews

Old moorooduc rd is fun, beats the freeway anyday.

Some fun drives and challenging twisties to be found.

    • 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.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
