this happened....

was during the cannonball run... driver and co-driver died as did the 2 officials they ploughed through

if you are too young to know what the cannonball run is i will just kill myself now.

back when the cannonball runs were done at speed.

well the full story.

there was a cannonball run in AU between Darwina nd perth.

there were a number of check points along the way.

SO rules were you had to slow down to around 100 for the check points and towns and full throttle in between, this guy came into the checkpoint at about 250ish..and lost it,

race cancelled, ppl died..

Ham what a cheap paint job did not even do the door jams ;)

I know what the cannonball run is just didn't know of this accident :) waste of lives and ferarri :(

Apparently the 285 18 Achilles 123s are better bang for buck and cheaper than 265/35/18 Federal RSR.... AND they're about the same width because RSR's are wider than 265's should be so will fit under by rear end without needing to roll any guards?

Thoughts? Comments? Which tyre should I go for now that I've decided to do Winton on the Friday before DECA in Nov?

Edit: Just need the 2 rears, 18x9.5 (can't remember the offset...) since I've still got enough RS-R on the front to last a few days.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
