Phillip Island 16-06-2013 After a wet start in the morning the day got better. Still very cold, had a lot of trouble getting heat into the tyres. Couple of issues spun the rear yoke in the tail shaft

Ive always known Lakeside to be a high a speed circuit but thats the first time ive seen the speedo on a vid too, thanks Callum!

and just saw natsoft too - fastest lap of the meet - top work!

Do you not watch my vids Chris? lol :P

..... above on a very worn set of O3G's. Note the coner speed difference especially on the turn onto the straight Cal!

thanks heaps ben, good to see ya yesterday.

watching mine afterwards i am relying too much on safe understeer and its probably costing me time and killing my front tyres. i will adjust the balance for next time.

looks like the aero helps my mid corner speed a fair bit compared to yours.. weights being about the same 1190 no driver? and i have a lot of tyre too, 235/255

It's a fantastic little track Chris, you need to find the time to get up here mate :)

I'm 1240 no driver from memory when I last corner weighted it.

Mine's screaming for a front splitter, it improved with undertray, splitter hopefully a step better. If I can get the front to tie up a bit better I can wind some wing back in on the rear.

Love it ^^ , looks like it wants to lift the tyres off the ground under hard brakes!

and man toffy the amount of lock you need to wind in to turn that thing, im getting tired just watching !

explain the gearbox.. simple 3 speed yea? looks fuggin fun but hard work!

yeah three speed (think of starting in 2nd and that's about it) , i need to adjust it a lil better so i don't have to do a z to go from first to second :blush:

Toffy from 8:00 onward is madness. Cars all over the place.

yeah that whole race was like that, it got worse in memory , the top 8 cars ar within 5 hundredths of a second of each other in memory (although it doesn't seem it in the vid ). it all comes down to qualify/start line take off pretty much

They are nice vids. I cant help but think that the footage you are getting is better then what I am getting out of my Radcam...will have to try some of the settings on my thing.

Also, do you know where the timing beacon was located on the weekend, by my vids I was doing 1:07-1:08s on the short track, but I suspect I was backing off after the finish line and I suspect the beacon was on the back straight now that they have me 6 seconds slower?

The timing was screwed up on the short track. Winton timing gave me a 1.10.x, racechrono gave me a 1.08.x and video gave me a 1.08.x

The long track timing was working correctly though.

As you say the beacon may have been somewhere else for the short track....?

I use the Go Pro HD's in centre metered mode all the time. This means that it takes light readings from the centre of the video and not from inside the car.

I'm cutting the vision of mine at the moment, but this is in my brothers car (white 33 gtst).

Got a couple pieces of lightning in the video, crazy stuff.

Watch out Stagea it's coming for you!

Yeh, its doing everything pretty well. I just need more seat time and need to get the general balance back to how it used to be which is to make it a bit pointier so i can drive it a little more on the throttle mid corner and get some better drive out of corners.

What is done to the front end of your car? It seems to need more steering angle then mine...but that could be tyres?

Good vids guys :thumbsup:

Great to see the silver beast in action Troy. As for Richos steering angles...maybe its a 33 thing as mine seems to require a fair bit (will have to check my winton footage to compare) so much so that it feels uncomfortable to keep my hands on the steering wheel in the same positions

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
