RE: that LeMons race get heaps of press lately...

Read the regs inc the fine print......

$880 per driver. Min 5 drivers. $4400.

Then they charge $75 per pit crew member, and $30 each for anyone else.

$1000 car that needs a professional cage, race seat, 6 point harness, fuel cell.....

Drivers must have 3 layer suits or single layer and underwear, Hans device and helmet.

Add basic maintenance stuff to the car, tyres, brakes, fuel, and whatever else, get there, stay there, and come home.

Not so cheap now

So probably paying like 2k each once you add all that up / mods etc (and the need to find 4 others that are willing to drop 2k on a shitbox rally basically)

2k would get you a decent sim racer for home :P

Edited by UNR33L

Add the fact no one will actually be racing in a car they bought for $500; impossible to prove any sale didn't occur for that

apparently its not a receipts thing, its a estimate value thing. like, even if you didnt pay for things, its value is determined (somehow)

Think I'd have more fun buying a good set of semis + pads and hitting up PI on a normal trackday.

Speaking of which, havent seen you at the track ever.... get out there with the e85 drag monster you keep talking about

Calder or Heathcote?

I really want to do PI but Haunted Hills doesn't look half bad either. When is the next of either (can't make SAU Vic June PI)?

Edit: scratch that, I don't want to bin my daily until GTR is on the road.

PI is Sunday June 14th (Also 13th, but we're not attending the untimed "testing" Saturday)... Check the Motorsport calendar in the VIC section for the other upcoming Championship Round days :yes:

I won't be attending this round anyway... Things escalated in the garage the other night

I come along with you to one of the other rounds

I really need a race seat though

Sunroof + 6'2 + helmet don't work with the stock seat

Got the opposite problem... Try driving a car that used to be owned by the tallest hipster I know, who put lowered seat rails in it, so I need to stretch to get my legs to push the clutch all the way down.

We swap cars?

If you had the stock rails you would be even further away from the firewall.

The problem is your legs

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
