Looking at getting grandstand tickets. Just wondering what the best seats were for a good view with plenty of shade ?

I have been to a couple of clipsal events and makes you think, WTF am I doing here. You only get to watch cars going around on the one corner or straight. The rest of the time is spent on watching the big screen anyway. Might as well chill at home with a few bevs and have the boys around for a barbie :D Way better then spending the money to get on the stands.

Meh once the first carton is down mate the atmosphere will be pretty much the same :P

If you just want to follow the race, staying at home and watching it on tele is the better way, but if you want the whole petrol head experience than going to the races is better. Pitty there is so much boganism at clipsal.

Yeah I disagree Kirshy - Clipsal is as much about {walking around admiring hotties, seeing displays of all varieties, eating too much and drinking too many Cougars}, as it is about cars. I love it!

I will ask around mate, not sure. Sled bought 2 of them off us, as Chops and Nikki obviously won't come anymore. But Sonia or Brownyn may not be keen, so you may be in wiht a chance. I will let you know.

I've got a good seat but can't see much racing out side of the GT's and I find the Podium is a good place to stand for those races, always good company up there, this year it was 4 grid girls and Murray Walker :whistling:

And Nightcrwaler and I were stars last year on the TV's... when filming the Model Parade we were in the front row

and here was our view

I don't know anyone with spare tickets, I gave mine up with you after last years.

My dad has found people for his spare 2 seats

    • 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...
