He's the racing co-oridinator. I'm paying on the day and scanned and emailed him the entry form. Much better. :thumbsup:

Now come on 25's!

trying to get along to winton instead.

you should get 25's easy with those tyres.

Well my best before then was 28.6 with work semi's and 25-30 less rwkw's. Plus the semi's were 215 fronts and 235 rears. I have 245 all round now.

Come on sau. I don't want to be a lone ranger out there...

Awww....Don't worry about it Russ....I did the HSVOC PI day last month and was the only SAU member there......and before anyone asks the only reason I did it was for convenience :D Anyway was fun without having some RP prepped GTR setting the times :)

Hand timing is a bit agricultural.

Not hand timing as such..

What they mean is a button is pressed every time a car crosses the line and car numbers are allocated in the computer.

It's getting a bit dated but it's actually not too bad for accuracy against our in-car timers..

damn it was hot work out there yesterday.

everyone was well behaved, first time in a while were no one is going to have to pay out for a wall.

winton test day this friday...hrm. there is no way im getting work off...maybe.

You're a machine!

how'd you go guys? was in wet in melb?

just got back from winton. sunny and dry track time for every run. nice and warm up there as well.

talk about a differance in cars. from the rent a car daewoo to ex v8 super cars and group A.

Well Dane didn't go well. I'll let him explain. I think he needs an RB20 though :P

The day was poorly run and I only got 2 sessions. Just too many cars and they had long sessions. Like 12 laps or so. Meant a lot of waiting. Dane and I finally got on the track at 12:45!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We didn't have rain at all. There was rain in the morn before I got there.

Anyway after bedding in brakes etc I managed to get a 1:24.91 with a slightly untidy lap so still can go quicker. I'm very happy and again these AO50s are great. Love em. Wearing well too! It's good to see lap times come down. nearly 4 sec too! (Prev pb was 1:28.6)

Oh and I also got the priviledge of doing a rick kelly from the kink to dandy corner. 1 full anti-clockwise spin through the grass to rejoin just before the left hander. :P

Backwards at over 100k's was scary knowing the wall was right there!

Awesome stuff Russ, told you you'd do it mate! :P

Glad you made it through the spin too mate... wowzers.

As for my car, gosh darn built engines is all I can say. Oil on manifold forced me to come in after 1 lap, which is lucky I did as I have a water sealing problem so water in the oil. Engine is coming back out this week and going back to the engine builders to find out what the issue is.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
