Mallala Grip Practice Day

[Moodles2]

Midnight on this forum posts out secondary bonnet restraints for $30, they're not mandatory at open track days but cheap insurance if the factory bonnet latch fails: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Se...in-t234957.html

Got my car wheel aligned for this today.

Front - +1.2 toe, -3.75 camber, +6 caster

Rear - +1.0 toe, -3.00 camber

would be good to wind more camber out on the rear but the cops might not like it hehe

Rear camber seems a bit much, but i guess you dont have all that much power at the rear wheels just yet

[Luke_ENR34]

yeah true lol, i could wind it out to -1.5/2 degrees on the rear but the tires would stick half way out the guard lol

Once i get the guards flared at some stage i should manage -1.5 to -2 degree's on the rear.

The front is perfectly set up for track at the moment.

Big thanks Adelaide Tyre Power

Sat Feb 7th: 26 degrees and mostly sunny

10 day forecast for Adelaide

[DSTROY]

26 would be awesome, i really hope it stays in the mid to high 20's

[Moodles2]

26 is cool, don't have to stress over getting my oil cooler installed before the date.

Ive ordered a set of QFM track pads, $220 for front and rear which is about have the price of Red Stuff pads. They where sent off today so i should have them by about Tuesday. I'll let people know how they handle the track and on the street

[Madaz]

are they the K750's i have K550 there good for street

[Moodles2]

I brought QFM HPX pads (street/light track pads) from a business trader here for I think 131 (front and rear + delivered), plan to put either on if I wear down my current pads while at Mallala. Was going to get the A1RM but they're fairly dusty being a track pad.

Formulation - Cold Friction - High Friction - Temperature ©

HP-X - 0.41 - 0.42 - 0-550

A1RM - 0.40 - 0.48 - 0-780

Hey Chad where did you get them through? My QFM R1AM's (780degree) pads arrived yesterday but they only cost $191 posted and we should be using the same pads (unless you brembo's?)

Hey Lance, If you read the feed back from the customers using the A1RM's they pretty much all say they are low dust;

no worries, I got them off the GSL Rallysport (their web page is the one linked above) they are the Australian distributor for Queensland Friction Materials pads, hence why they are cheaper, less middle men.

oh ok, i'll try and remember that for next time. My last set of pads lasted 7 months, these one's should last a little longer. Track days and hills runs sure use up the pads pretty quick.
