What are the requirements for each class? I know Rhys' rx7 is registered and daily driven.

Also the Evo 9 is street registered and was driven there and back?

It is all here in the regs, they are very close to superlap rules: http://www.renew.asn.au/downloads/2011%20Lap%20Battle%20Championship%20Event%20Regulations.pdf

but the short version is:

STREET = Street tyres

CLUB = Semi slicks, modded street cars

OPEN = Slicks, race cars, stripped/caged etc.

Some nice shots in there. Thanks for sharing them :thumbsup:

I thought it was a well run day by Don and the RENEW committee. Everything seemed to run smoothly and equal timed cars were grouped together correctly. I was quite happy with my performances to go from a 1.22 last year down to 1.18 in the first session, then to take it down to a 1.12.84 when I was moved up a group, with nothing changing from last time including tyres. They were only shitty nankangs too.

I managed to get through the day without any major issues and just need to modify my catch can setup so I can have the oil return to the sump. There is already a connector on the sump waiting for this too.

Besides that, I think one of the next things is to get some better street tyres to see how fast I can go before changing to some semi slicks or to full slicks.

Greg's black wide body S15 looked fat and fast, I will give him a run next one as The Slot Car was way off it's best, all new set up and got it wrong as understeered badly all day. I ran a little better at the NSCC day there the next day with a 1 min 6.1. Well ran day and nice weather. Well done again Michael Hill, faster again to.

Wizard either your car needs corner weighing bad or you drive smoother and faster with females on board,LOL.

I will be at the next one keen as.

Thats a win win situation.

Well the weather was great, took me about 45mins to get my little thing started because the poor fella was frozen but once started ran faultless all day. Had a fair bit of work done to it the 2wks prior just littles bits n pieces to make it more comfortable and safe. Took me about 3 sessions to get the brake bias adjusted back to roughly where it was and had to fiddle with the ride height so that it didnt roll over on right hand turns (badly needs corner weighing and an alignment).

The day was run really well, thanks to the 2 guys on the flags and microphone, having multiple calls over the pa for uncoming groups was great work - the best ive ever experienced in the last 15 trackdays. I was quite confused with the groups configuration, I think it was about 6 groups or something including the driver trainer sessions? which meant shorter sessions (6-7 laps). Maybe this can be worked on for the next outing especially in the afternoon when only half the field is still running.

Car wasnt up the scratch for beating my pb laptime so once again had heaps of fun chasing other cars, here are the videos I took on the day.

PS. If anyone still has the trackday bug and doesnt want to wait until December 'Circuit Club' runs brilliant trackdays identical to the sau/renew setup and the next 1 is only 2wks away.

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      Ogura orc1000f vs Osg tr2cd vs Osg r3c experiences, max torque/max hp?

      By Piggaz · Posted

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      By uchoa · Posted

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
