Well it is a tiny bit late notice, but please reply here if you want to come along to the annual SAU Schutzenfest non-car meet-up.

As usual I will go line up with some dedicated helpers around 11:30am next Saturday and reserve a bunch of tables and chairs undercover for the masses.

If you haven't been before it is an AWESOME event with food of many genres (particularly German food), and a whole range of on-tap and canned beverages (including spirits).

Of course there is also some rifle shooting that you can submit for a possible prize if you are good enough.

Temperature is forecast for 35 degrees, so will be an awesome scorcher and will most likely have big spray tents to keep everyone cool (and the guys entertained) :)

It really is a great day, so if you haven't got anything on, come along to Ellis Park at 11:30am onwards - many of us normally pike around 6-7pm, as that is already a good 6-7 hours of drinking.

I will let you all know later this week what shirt I will be wearing if you don't know what my ugly mug looks like :)

New venue here: http://www.schutzenfest.com.au/getting-there/default.php

Confirmed attendees:

- Nightcrawler

- Whiplash

- Red Back

- Reslo

Haha it's not a typo .... you have met Ronan my Irish brother-in-law I think Luke - his nickname is Reslo. But you better be there too fathead :) You too Ben!

hehe i wont be there unfortunately, im saving my pennies (and my liver abuse) to the fishing charter heh

-D

wtf I am off the back of a $2k week in the SE with significant liver abuse (incl. an $830 tab for NYE dinner - ouch my Visa hurts), Schutzenfest next weekend then Australia Day liver festivities before the fishing weekend .... harden up Ben :)

Hmmm, i am still awaiting info about this.

Sorry but all deposits were filled before your interest. We were limited to 8 spots and it was first paid first served. Better luck next time mate

-D

EDIT - And andrew, I'm between contracts atm. I dont have the finances for it atm.

OK peoples, I have just found out that if you pre-buy a ticket for $15.80 you get a free Stein (which we normally pay about $6 for from memory).

Only catch I can see is that if you are coming later in the day, they might run out of Steins (as they do some years).

So if you are coming early and meeting me at the gate around 11:30-12pm Saturday, let me know, I will buy you a ticket online and give the ticket to you on the day. Or go to the Shutzenfest website, follow the links and buy your own.

If you want me to buy one for you (and you fix me up on the day) let me know by tomorrow night, as I will order the tickets then.

    • 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
