Just got back, after being there since around 7am yesterday morning.

Gotta say its an awesome event. Walk around were ever you want, get up close in the pits. - except for AUDI, had the doors closed pretty much all weekend.

The 458 Italia, is one of the craziest sounding race cars i have ever heard!

And awesome result Stu, the commentators were loving your work yesterday, getting the crowd behind a local Bathurst boy :)

Have a heap of pics and videos but first a rest, then watch the last hour live, then sift through pics

Thanks Brian

Won overall, but had protest lodged - lap 1 race 3 for passing under safety card board F4 in cutting no yellow visable board only.

Copped 18 second penalty delegated to 2nd place.

Pretty sure Robinson was rolling well before the lights went green in the last race but I saw no drive through penalty for that...

Hi Chris

Yes he got a 10 second penalty for jumping the start and I got a 18 second penalty for missing a flag point which was not reported by flaggys, only via protest at 6.30pm that night - anyways had a great time.

In the vid I will put on soon, you can see the yellow, I just had a bit on at the time.

Thanks

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
