[UNR33L]

Hope my engine doesn't break without a oilcooler

Probably a good idea to only do a few hard laps at a time lol

Wallan BP is that on the Hume or do I need to turn off somewhere? cant remember but its up a hill isnt it?

Hume

Car's ready Was touch and go for a while there, hard to find somewhere to machine something on a Friday with no notice.

But new diff is in, run in and ready to go!

[Bec]

Have fun today kids

[JZP]

Would love to come up today.... but car is in panel beaters....bugger.

It seems it will be a good day - might get a bit warm for those GTR's.

[Downforce]

Times are up http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results.cgi?09/04/2011.WIN.S28.Y

I had a bit of a disappointing day with some annoying issues. The good news is I'm ditching the super shitty turbo setup that came with the car and replacing it with something more to my liking

Good to see everyone enjoying the day. Only 5 groups with fast rotation so there was plenty of track time!

[Josh_TypeX]

haha made a 1:44, didn't see that go up at the track. The new diff made such a difference, 2 tenths off my PB with absolutely terrible rear tyres

[Russman]

Disappointing day for some but I enjoyed the day being pit crew, spectator and parts runner

Good to see Mat and Johnny out there thrashing the rock solid 32. Tim and Campbell sure gave it a good go until issues crept up...

I assume you got back ok Matt. were you gassed by the time you got back?

Josh, that's a good time mate. Better tyres will reward you more next time haha.

Being there today kicked the motivation up a notch for my car...

[ssxRicho]

Great turn out from SAU, weather was almost spot on. Few guys overheating throughout the day. I think there are a few oil coolers on order

The femno/jonny car running out of rear pads and the guy the generally brings 5 sets of pads with him to the track goes into town and saves the day...heaheah

Yeah I got back ok, took a bit longer to get home I'm looking forward to getting new turbo setup on, this 200rwkw crap just isn't doing it for me

John - what sort of water temps were you seeing on the track with your ASI radiator? Love the welding on that thing, looks like a decent radiator for the money.

I don't understand why Mat didn't just put decent pads on the rear to begin with!? saves the trouble of changing them when they get cooked. Bendix Ultimates are rubbish pads for the track.

[ssxRicho]

Generally 96max'ish. At the moment I havent got MoCool in the system and one of the rad hoses is the wrong size and a little kinked. I also ordered

a 15 row oil cooler not a 19 or 25, so its a little small. I hit 104 after 4 hot laps yesterday.

[Josh_TypeX]

Highest water temp I saw yesterday with my ASI radiator was 88degrees. That's only doing 3 hot laps though. No oil cooler.
