Who here has a laptop with wi-fi? :P

All we need now is a generator and a evap cooler on wheels (or fans) :P

There was a bloke in the FS thread selling an evap cooler for $50. might see if we can grab that

i got laptop with wifi but more importantly Next G :)

-D

Edit - its nick who has the aircon, just messaged him about it. aircon consumes 210watts, which is bugger all, so I reckon that might even run off an AC inverter from a deep cycle battery

If I was more organised I would have brought it to Loxton along with my laptop. But Im sure you saw all the clothes on my back seat still drying so thats how organised I was lol

Thats the idea... we'd need power tho, thats the only problem (unless someone has a deep cycle battery with 12 hours of 400 watts load.

Aircon draws something like 250 watts (say 350 for initial load when powering on) and the router takes 18 watts, so 400watt inverter would be good. Otherwise it'd be an AC plug from somewhere or a small generator

my truck has 3 batteries and my father in law has a new 2.0hp Honda generator.......would have to break his arm to borrow it though.

ok, ill get SA investigations onto it, might use my 10% discount!

the 2hp genny would be infinately more preferable to the battery and inverter route, however it also comes down to how much juice it drinks and how loud it is (and how stinky the exhaust is)

Put me down for this one. Damo you have a PM mate

Cool, looks like we'll have a nice range :sick:

Next question - Mal has said that if we get there early we can get a good spot - how many of ya'll can make it at 7:30 ?

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
