Round 1 of the NSW State Champs are on this weekend at Eastern Creek.

Categories include Sports Sedans, Improved Production, HQs, Production sports, and of course the mighty production touring category....and for the first time in about 5 years there are 2 GTRs on the grid.

Each category has qualifying and 1 race on sat, and 2 races on sunday

If you do make it drop by, I will be set up on the skidpan somewhere wishing I could afford a garage ;)

The good news is, ARDC have finally worked out it is more expensive to pay for a gatekeeper than to just throw the gates open.....so entry is free both days.

I'll probably come out on Sunday to take a few photos.

Got a website link to this event?

And Chris, Podium isn't enough... He needs to come first! :P

jeeus, no pressure there! the field is going to be damn competitive including those pesky emo Xs. Luckily they are down to 1.2bar this year instead of 1.6+

well it rained for the race and qualifying yesterday, and the forecast for today is:

Metropolitan area

Cloudy. Heavy showers, easing to scattered showers later in the evening.

The main issue with that is.....my car is rubbish in the wet!

all turbo cars run a valve in the BOV pressure side. If manifold pressure exceeds the allowed pressure the valve closes, causes the BOVs to blow open and drop all boost. Painfully effective. In fact it really doesn't work well with the stock system because it spikes and then returns, I had to add a boost controller to keep the spikes under control. max boost I saw today was 11.3 psi dammit.

You did well today Duncan. Pity the Evo's were out in force :P

What happened in the last race, is everything alright with the car?

Will post photos soon.

mate the car was a shitbox in the wet (don't believe what you read on the internet abotu 4wd in the wet....it does SFA for mid corner speed). But in the dry it went f**king great, I was holding down 4th place with an emo X, emo 9 and sti only in front of me. pretty good for a 20yo car with a hack driver. And I had the wrong damn tyres on again. bring on wakie!

What went wrong was....the fuel sender was borken, we chucked in all the fuel we had in jerries to be safe. 25min race, 3 warm up laps after the trouble on the grid....I just ran out of fuel on the second last lap. I could hold say 2000rpm without running out of fuel but anything above that it broke down :( Won't happen again.

That Evo X driven by glenny/pearson was fcuking quick off the grid and around EC! I lol'd so hard when it was the 2nd warm up lap and you took off from the grid at full pace hahahahaha damn that was funny! I hope you didn't get any time penalties from that!

Running 11.3psi of boost would suck!!!! Why do they restrict the boost and not restrict the power instead?

Are there any restrictions on the class that had the porsches and lotus's?
