From memory long wang anything under 55sec is pretty good. Best drivers on mini wang get under 25sec.

Good to know, I'll be aiming for about 1m20s then :P

How do you guys normally travel up there?

I'm heading up on Friday Night after work, do you normally convoy up there or just meet at the Motel?

Was planning on leaving from Melbourne CBD at approx 5:30pm or so... (picking up a few guys from the city on the way)

Good luck with that! Ring Rd will be standstill until at least 6.30-7pm

Either leave by 3pm or don't bother until after 7pm. It'll take you an extra 45-60mins if you try and go in peak, if not more. I tried it once, never again.

Ask your boss to let you go early Simon. I'm leaving Doncaster 4.30 - 5.00. Last time I left straight from work at 4.30 it took a really long time to get to the Hume. I'm just glad I didn't leave any later..

Ha, good point :P

Bit tricky with the guys I've gotta collect on the way...

Meh I'll give them some notice and they can suck it up and leave early as well.

:thumbsup: <--- Good friend.

Or just go and sit @ pub for an hour or something and wait for the traffic to die off if you cant leave early.

Ive done that before (when not the driver). As it beats sitting in a car for an extra hour

Or just go the back way like I do (if you happen to live close enough) through Yea & Seymour and you avoid all the traffic.

That's axactly what I'll be doing this time as I'll be leaving after work and will be wanting to avoid the traffic!!!

I cant remember the last time I worked on a DECA Friday :(

I'll probably oraganise a convoy up on the Friday night if anyones interested simply because there's like 11 of us in our group going up together.

I owe you drinks this DECA mofo, ps I'm going up Friday night too!

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
