On the streeter tires it is near impossible to have the car out that wide around southern. That line has the best corner exit speed, but the poor streeter just push you wide.

It is hard enough to get the car to turn on this line, any wider you end up in the sticks.

That was a very nice lap.

So with the double apexing of the Southern Loop - you reckon guys on street tyres shouldn't even try it - it is because of all the rubber marbles on the outside.

I have Dunlop Direzza's Z1* - I got no idea if they'r any good. If anybody has any idea what pressures I should run I'm all ears - thanks in advance.

Baron rates the Z1's. I have never had them.

34-36 hot I would think.

I find with my car that any wider in the loop and you loose front grip very quick. But with the GTR you have the front wheels pulling the car into the corner.

This is a mates GTR on the same as my vision on the same tires.

driver training will by CAMS rules be all in one group = 5

(what is up on my froums i am still playing with)

Even if people haven't put themselves in Driver Training but have a CAMS licence starting in 111 and havent given any experience they end up in Driver Training as well.

That extinguisher thing wont go away will it., The upgrading is in process and we are doing it to help people come up to speed before its locked down.

I am looking forward to the Speads as well and we have another clubman now.

12 Entries to go, worship.gif

Wow that is an impressive list of entries in group 1 :D R35 GTR, GT3 porshce, Speads RS08, Takwalai's falcon, Jesus, Ant, Luke.... Oh, and then there's that 240z with an RB26... I'll be staying out of his way if i see him coming :ph34r:

Not to mention Dale's VZ commodore looking to break into the 1:30's. Great variety of fast cars, let's hope the weather plays nice....

Hey Jack - you wouldn't happen to have any old GT-R fitment 18 x 10.5's laying around unused I could borrow for a day?

Unfortunately I only have the LMGT4's that are on my car at the moment, have got rid of all the rest of wheels I had in the past. I'm assuming you have tried Aaron at IM?

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
