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?

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
