i actually like all of the development of the different cars, pushs all the boundrys around what can be done and not as restrictive. I guess open and club class are for the people that want to push the boundrys within a more defined set of rules.

One thing this year and i hope Hi Octane is reading is to please please put split times up on the display board up, sooooo many times i was hearing.....AND HE IS ON A FLYING LAP!!!! only to see them driving past the start finish line in third with a cup of tea.

and as most people know, our R35 won't be there this year. no catastrophes or other major issues with the build other than we have been ambitious with the work planned time wise relative to keeping things on budget. we hope to be on track in several months and spend the year testing at the track and having some fun.

That's a great idea. Have you asked them to do it? Put in on their FB page. Probably gets the most attention haha.

we are going to bring a tv this year so we can plug into the laptimes and maybe a speaker so we can hear the anno

was difficult last.year especially with the rotor guys next door replacing and engine after each session....uncements

Here is a little vid of some testing at Phillip Island on the weekend

Hope you enjoy.

If you like what you see make sure you join the Big Red Racing Facebook Page

Sick love this, do you have a new paint job?

pulse racing evo looks interesting and with a bit of testing, any insight into times @ EC?

In 2010 with far less aero won open class with a 1.46 lap time at EC

Now has heaps more aero, tyre and power looks good reliability wise with new dry sump and motec ECU

Prob Berry will prob be fastest with the 34 in pro class. Was much faster last year compared to before. Haven't heard much since though... Wooster?? Updates??

In open I would say Newton in Big Red for Open class if he pulls it all together. Looks very promising.

Way too many Emo's at WTAC IMO.

should be real quick then, turning into a bit of an EVO fest @ WTA. Who is in the running for fastest Skyline?

Team USA with the 32 will be interesting. Will the Berry machine go faster than Suzuki san though?

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
