DECA is the noobie event. dont talk about it, just do it! watch those last minute pull outs..

there is normally a met at the servo 1.5 hours out from DECA. so you dont even need to know where you are going, just tag along in the group.

you forgot to mention its a great way to get off the streets n let of some steam for anybody ! practice day or just a excuse to take your weekender out for a slide, come out to a basic track day, get a license and listen to experienced people, learn more about your car, and yeh the drinking session afterwards can be lethal, don't have more then 2 fishbowl's unlike my mates do..........

i do agree with the just do it comment tho, it's fairly easy on tyres, but it's your choice and driving method for your clutch survival

is that possible ? nah when you pull it you have to wait for it to lock up, it does but yeh no nice handbrake turns i think the clutch will have more work ahead of :) i had a look over it for adjustment but then thought hydraulic :) and moved on to repairing more important things, like my sunroof, which is now a black outline bit with cracking bog oh well body work is low on agenda again

but with vdc day at winton the day afterwards, i think i need a steering stick ;) i dunno i haven't done any mods since the last august deca.....didn't even finnish off my car pc, iv'e had a blu ray burner sitting in my car for along time now and it doesn't get used. lol i must have been exceited when i bought that for it.

might have some time and money to throw at it again one day.

ENTRY FORM WILL BE UP TOMMOROW AFTERNOON.

Remember, Deca can sell out pretty quickly so dont wait around. Also, if you do miss the list still send us your entry and we will put you on the reserve list. There is often a number of people who pull out before the event.

hey just wondering, where can i find the entry form, plus how much is it to enter...and also do u need a helmet if you do, is it provided or do you have to bring your own?

Hey James you need your own Helmet. I picked up the entry level full face RJays one from Revolution Racegear for about $230 last time. They have some uber cheap open face ones at around $90 too.

oh ok, thanks for that. does it have to be a special type of race helmet, or would a motorbike helmet be suitable or even a motocross helm

      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?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
