Hey guys thought I would put this in motorsport section just because I was interested in peoples views on SAU. Speak to a lot of mates who are very 'MEH' on the topic of taking their cars to the track.

Feel free to obviously express other things that are not in poll.

hahaha

I was like I voted!

anyhoo, I did 6 in 2011

4 MRA rounds (consisting of 1 x qual, 3 x races apart from last round where was 2 x qual and 2 x 3 races)

and 2 supersprints

Did the SAU RENEW thing, the SAU day in December and a couple of days with SSCC.

Eastern creek and Wakefield.

Hopefully my oil issues are now sorted as only doing one session per day has been very annoying to set the least.

Bring on the sprints.

I didn't get my nugget out once last year....

Initially it was a bit of a lack of interest as work was sucking the life out of me and then i had a week in port douglas around june and 5 weeks in the uk and europe in september and then a weekend in melbourne in november that wasn't cheap and then the year was over and i had no money left.

boo f**king hoo i hear you all say :P

I'm planning on getting out again in the next month or so, try and get around 4 days in this year.

10 supersprints in 2011 between Jan and Nov.

Very happy to get such high usage out of my track only S13.

Stoke that I set new PB's at every event except 1.

Sucks that is was only at 2 racetracks - EC and Wakie being the only 2 race circuits in NSW now!

2012 I've promised myself to do at least 1 trip to Vic (Winton or P.I) just for a change of scenery.

Go and give MDTC a run. If the S13 is well sorted suspension wise, you'll have an absolute ball!

Four events for 2011, and not a gravel rally in sight :(

Too many competing interests including work demands. Might be a bit easier for 2012 but funds dictate it will probably be a similar number this year.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
