Daniel I want a good look at this E85 voodoo ;)

hahaha, i'll drive up with 98, prob like half a tank or something, so when i get to Shep it'll be pretty low, then i'll put in a couple jerries of E85, which i rekcon should be plenty for a day and then fill up with 98 on the way back if need be :)

will prob bring the laptop to see what the E% mixture is before the runs start, but not much more i can do as i have no tuning knowledge. But if Trent says he's happy for the car to do track work with Flex-Fuel active, then i'm happy :)

Hey Leon,

Name for driver 46 is 'Akshay' Rajan not Ryan. Also, 46 and 47 would like to share the same car, so I guess we need to be in the same group but enough numbers apart? :ermm:

Had heaps of fun at the last one (which was my first) can't wait to go again!

Cheers mate!

G'day guys,

I am really excited about my first DECA. Looking forward to seeing what my GTR is like. Could you please update my name.

Driver number 41 - My name is David Hemmings -

Not Davis Memmings.

Thanks Dave

Yay, welcome to SAU Dave...

See you tomorrow morning bro, its car mod time :D You're going to love the Long Wang, even though I know you're used to Short Wang.

(Leon, I'd like to be in the same group as my mate Davis Memmings, if that is something that matters at this point ;) )

Cheers,

Simon

Dammit, even google image search is trying to change his name back to how it should be.

so how exactly does the competition side of things work?

you've got the short and long wang, which are timed... does this get converted into some sort of points or is just +mins/secs from the fastest person?

and from memory, there were some penalties for hitting cones etc?

and the skidpan is a mixture of time and penalties for cones?

Pretty much it is that, from memory on wangs you get points for fastest.

I have a tip for you, keep away from the Armco barrier at Enormous Penis (aka Long Wang).

There are points? I thought the aim of the game was to drive around mashing cones and looking stupid.

ok, got it.

for those that are interested...

"DECA Rounds

Each Sub-Event of the Event will be scored individually.

Points will be awarded in order of finishing from highest to lowest as follows:

1st = 50 points,

2nd = 49 points,

3rd = 48 points,

4th = 47 points etc, and so on down to the last competitor.

All points from each sub event are accumulated and a total is created with the highest score winning. Classes are AWD and RWD.

Penalties:

Hit Cone (Make a cone move from it's spot) = +5 Seconds Per Cone

Missed Gate/Cone (Wrong Direction) = Slowest Time + 10 Seconds.

Did Not Finish = Slowest Time +10 Seconds

Did Not Complete Full Course = Slowest Time +10 Seconds (Missed more than 3 Cones)

Did Not Start = No Score - Nil points"

what's classified as a decent time for the short and long wang?

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
