Are there any restrictions on filling up from drums of fuel at Deca? This is my first outing since converting the car to E85 and not being able to duck out the to the BP for Ultimate out of the pump, so I just want to make sure I don't break some rule if I need to crack a drum open to fill up.

There is no problem with bringing up fuel.

Many people do it.

Pretty securely might not be enough mate.

When I've been doing it, people that have them drilled into the backing MDF where the battery is - get knocked back.

Simply because 99% of them I've been able to move the MDF by hand. Imagine a heavy amp doing the rounds should you end up in a spot of bother. Simply not worth a risk.

Advice taken onboard. They wiggled when I tested last night.... so it was a very quiet drive to work this morning >_<

Good to )hear( lol

But safety first mate, I'm gonna be helping doing scruitneering too in the morning it looks like, so glad that was covered off before the day.

I'll be emptying my car on the Fri night @ accomm, saves SOOO much stuffing around in the morning - thats my hot tip :thumbsup:

spotters on the long Wang mainly checking cars not leave the track...if you photographing them you will notice anyhow..

or replacing cones if they are hit. this is done when no cars on track. plus usually only happens 4-5 times as most ppl are avoiding them.

I've done it a few times just for photographing.

Laith spent the last one doing a bunch of videoing up there as well.

So is definitely possible. Ask to be up the top of the earth bank and you get heaps visibility for the wang as well.

Sounds good, happy to do it. What time does morning runs start?

I'm taking sickie friday and going to shep friday night so will be able to get there early.

Should I bring my HIVIS or will one be supplied if volunteering?

    • Sorry I didn’t explain myself properly, by free revving I meant if I just floor it, it gets to 7kish and will start to break up/not hit limiter properly, off boost I’ve driven the car until near on empty. I have a fuel pressure gauge mounted in the engine bay, holds fuel pressure consistently full tank or half tank even when revving, and no the pump sound doesn't change. all the fuel lines inside the tank are fairly new but will look into it, could that also be an issue with the lines outside the tank ?
    • Yeah maybe I got a bad batch that only lasted 6 years. Or conversely maybe I got a good batch that managed to last 6 years.    Either way I have sourced a set of OEM hub/bearing assemblies  so I keep hearing! Even from life long mechanics. Apparently this failure is unheard of…
    • I am trying to understand how that even happened to the hub... wtf
    • Hell, I'm sufficiently wary of the ZSS suspension arms, let alone something like a hub.
    • Got it back home and got started pulling the hub off and diagnose the issue. Axle was stuck after removing the 36mm nut so i used a 3 jaw puller to try and push it out and... eH5FXvJ8.mp4   spend the next few hours trying to remove the axle from the remaining hub as it was very much jammed in there when the spindle sheared off. resulting damage as below R53AIy6 - Imgur.mp4   Looks like the was already a stress fracturing in the spindle as can be seen with the darker cracked section My working theory is maybe when the pinion gear exploded last year the shock put through the hub was the initial crack. Then a few events later it finally let go. Just lucky it happened where it did and not 190km/h on the next sweeper or into the hairpin The bearing/hub assembly went in in 2019 and were non-genuine "ZSS" assemblies and no nails were harmed in the process. #BreakHubsNotNails
