Very enjoyable, ran anticlockwise figure 8 (as per Australian Championship held the other week), with so few entries, plenty of oportunity to work on improving times doing different things.

Only bummer, they closed up shop a bit early (around 4:30) and forgot a hat, so even with factor 30, got a bit of sun burn!

Awesome day. I ended up with a 67.1 but i had to leave early as hayfever knocked the stuffing outta me, just woke up after 16hrs of sleep :closedeyes:

Pity i probably missed anoher 2-3 runs. Would have been good to knock even more time off. Each run nearly killed about .8 of a second so definitely good room to improve. Running the track reverse Fig 8 was VERY interesting, quite different to the other way.

I hear Madden got a 66.x

Must have been the speed-hat LOL :merli:

great to met some more of the SAU crew, and overall a very enjoyable day. (apart from the sunburn)

look forward to seeing some of the incar vids when they get posted?

found a great vid that shows the reverse figure 8 layout

RACE SOLUTIONS how much did they get paid to do what? good day beside nothing running on time, what is the point in having supp regs with a time line that was no where near it. All so where was the practice session not the stupid bloddy three lap sighting crock of shit. Also the last minute change of what track was going to be run.

Wasn't happy with the change of track layout, really wanted to see If I could improve on my times from earlier in the year.

Other than my car being slow, I enjoyed the day

I didn't read the Supp Regs haha, but ye would have preferred the "usual" way to gauge the mods I've done in the car in terms of time etc. The Reverse Fig 8 was still fun overall though.

Agree on the Race Solutions point. Two events I've been to recently where there has been a lot of time wasted on their behalf whilst they just sit in the 4WDs, especially when people come off. There is 1-2mins before anything happens... If i had some off and was in trouble, 1min is a long time. So certainly room for improvement there & hopefully someone is giving them feedback to improve what they are delivering.

Still had fun overall though which is what matters :thumbsup:

Wish i could've stayed till the end but if gates did indeed close early (Someone said they did?) then probably wouldn't have missed as much as i thought.

yes there are pics, Katie took a bunch on the day slowly uploading atm.

re times when WRX have their we will link ot it, however final times on the club championship won;t be done till after the preso night..(just to keep a few ppl in suspense..

and I'll send them over.

Sunburn was sure the word of the day.

The track layout is far more enjoyable than the normal layout. Though I can see that for gauging difference in skill and car from the previous event is a pita.

I've got some great video, the pictures Katie has taken are awesome.

Is that Her Majesty the Queen driving JP's Green S14 there?

:whistling: Yes I had a laugh when I saw that. Timing Katie. Least I didn't get called a queen!

How'd PI go Sunday, spotted the 1:51s, wouldn't have minded being there myself, instead of mowing the lawn at 5kph.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
