I had a great day although rain for the first time I have driven a car in 7 months was a kick in the face!

Had traction issues all day (excuses) so I ran gate pressure all day and was a fairy with the throttle (You think a Trust setup sounds good, it was nothing compared to when they are on full song!) as there was no point trying to put down all of my power.

I will be back for a dry run and try to take off at least 10 seconds.

Once again awesome day, and the photo's from you guys show just how awful the conditions were.

Forgot to say big thanks to Copnis for his help on the start grid, you were out there in the rain for ages, doing a great job. Thanks heaps.

Official results are below, and even though Brent is the Motorsport secretary for CSA, we are not going to let him race any more, in the true Australian motor sport tradition, we are banning him. Anyone who is fearless enough to go out in that weather in a Fiesta XR4 and win is a nutcase hehe.

Well done everyone, only a couple of harmless spins and no bent cars in what was very slippery conditions.

Anyway Official results below as promised.

Have to tape glass headlights, so that if they break, the glass doesn't fall out onto the track. Just a precaution.

We all got heaps of runs TETS, was fantastic.

We are hoping for another one very early next year, so stay tuned.

Looks like a fun day in the wet.

I was there on the sunday and it had dryed up by then.

Anyone have more details about that R31 GTSR? is it genuine? There are a few things on it that make me think it used to be my old car.

Also which car is Paul Milvains? I work for the same company but haven't heard much about his 31.

Also I laughed when I saw the camry badge on the Chaser haha.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
