I think the commentator did ok. It's pretty hard doing it solo and trying to think of stuff to say all the time. I'm sure alot of us on here could not do a better job.

That said, I was only there on the Saturday and I can see how listening to 2 days of the one voice and get a bit tiresome.

Also, the times he called out I thought was good. Everytime a car went over the line he would call out the driver name and lap time.

It was easy to know who was doing what, and how far off their PB and all.

Was also loving the ferocity of the Pulse racing Evo coming out of the final turn, it was on the gas so much earlier than the other cars. Thing has some serious punch!

Yeah, how committed did Glenney wana be both the Pulse Evo and STi on Turn 12!!... awesome stuff!

Well fact is Cyber made 475 awhp on Friday night at 1.2 bar. They ran it at 1.6 on Saturday to set that time. So 600 would be closer?

Interestingly we compared a bit of data with some other teams and one fun fact was Berry's car was 20klm/h up on Sierra car at the end of the straight. Shows how

much downforce/drag that SS car has!

Cyber car weighs 1125, and creates 1250lg of dowforce. Yes, you read that right. They said under that car is really something special!

:-))

what's 1250lg of downforces?

Impressive commitment. I had my doubts but Russ made it happen and pulled it off. Minor miracle.

Roy yes a relaxing weekend for the Slot Car. Still waiting for custom dry sump pump. We will be in the mix next year.

The weather held off nicely and a massive weekend.

That VQ sits in there nicely!

Tried to find you to say Gday but didnt see you

My buddy Elvin got that gig. Bloody legend. Big dogleg drive out to Marks late thursday night, somehow wrangled the short engine into his wagon (he's 50kg wringing wet and no engine crane), drove through the night to get the short to us by 10am. Farkin LEGEND!

that is an effort! I struggle with RB cranks and im 80kg lol

***awaits Harry to make a spelling mistake*** :(

I meant kg of downforce you flogger. The L is beside the K.

KOK

Hey Ben, did the Tilton Evo end up making it to the track?

I heard some rumours of a ridiculous power to weight ratio of that thing!

hehe

my real question is does that mean 1250 kg total on the scales while in a windtunnel? So 1250-1125=125kg of actual downforce?

gimme 5 bags of cement, a few pies and a f**k load of coke and hookers. You can keep your fancy aero :(

Harry, yes. From our conversation with Tarzan, he said the car can drive upside down, F1 style. Upside farking down!

And yes, the Tilton car was there, but hobbled by massive understeer from what I saw. :ermm:

I wouldn't want to be a front tyre on that car. A shame as I too had heard some awesome numbers.

The 2nd car was on display, and looks to be much more serious :(

A shame too that the ex Supercars didn't make a better show of it. Looks like 38/39 is about the limit for a Supercar chassis on R comps. I had high hopes that they've give a bit of a hurry up to the front runners!

Jess, I heard something about 1100HP and 1125kg is this true? If so I want a go :(

HAHA Sounds like Kosta :ermm: The new car is going to be nuts and it needs to be with the competition they saw on the weekend!

Awesome World Time Attack is now being talked about on Top Gear Oz!

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      Ogura orc1000f vs Osg tr2cd vs Osg r3c experiences, max torque/max hp?

      By Piggaz · Posted

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      By uchoa · Posted

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
