12.601 @ 120.2mph on bp ultimate in full st trim with full tank on st tyres. Am i happy or what. I was also running 3-4psi less then what it was tuned at. Wait till i get full proper slicks. Oh touch it.

H.

If you don't mind me asking what sort of full proper slicks are you thinking of using...Brett

sounds like it was good fun

soon as my cars back on the road you can sign me down !

i want to do some runs before i add IC, AVCR and Dump Pipe + a few other things.

So ive got a point to improve on.

Somewhere around January 25th the car should be ready :(

rnz11z i saw you there but u were yackin away to others so i didnt say hi.

yer another 13.9 for me, guess it reinforces the fact that it wasnt a once off thing.

crossing the line at 103 mph, its all in the 60ft

i did 2 other runs with 2.3 sec 60ft and they worked out to be 14.1s and then a 2.2 60ft and it was a 13.9

so if i could get a good launch, i could get a good time

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
