just on normal street tyres. they don't allow rally tyres (or anything nobby)

the fast/serious guys use semi slicks becaus ethe track ends up being really hard packed and rubbered up like a speedway track after a couple of runs. hearing tyres squeal on dirt is strange...

Ah thought so looks like fun keeping it straight, wouldn't mind doing an event like that in mine be good to test a few things out before a rally.

the first video the car, the car that went round you on cold tyres and then spun was quiet funny

First session of the day, he had an engine oil drama that over filled his catch can and was dripping out underneath hence the smoke as he went past.

nice Mark! 56 is moving at Lakeside! Its a challenging place to learn - especially in such a fast car. You're going very well. Loking at the minimum speeds in corners you're pretty well on the money as far as I'm concerned. Stokell day looks like a good way to go and get the lines down pat.

tell you what, that bump on the left hander between carousell and the bridge is alot worse at your speed! jeezus!

btw, in some later sections I was getting close to just a slight lift at the kink and flat out under the bridge and over the crest into Hungry. if that doesnt make you feel alive I dont know what will.

Here's a little vid of me in an M3 under controlled conditions. Once a year BMW take all the Master Parts Advisers and Service Master Tech's away for a weekend of fun. This year was E/C,,,we did track work,,,khana's,,,abs testing and go-karts. Oh and free food and lots of piss.

This vid was made using an apple 4,,,handheld by my passenger,,,excellent quality.

Jeff Brabham is the head driver trainer,,,great guy with tons of info.

Cheers

Neil.

What's with braking before the 200m mark Neil!!! :P

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
