Don't worry I agree wholeheartedly - to be able to win on street tyres in a virtually unmodified car there has to be cheating going on. Some consistency / conservative driving, but lots of cheating!

I just dread the day I get behind a RWD and you all get to really see how much I suck at driving!! Going to be like starting from scratch.

Dont have excel @ home... anyone enlighten on how bad my fail was? :)

I wouldn't class 8th Overall as a fail Ash! :thumbsup:

So I did some shuffling around with excel...

If I exclude results from the events that I didn't run (only half the events thanks to my radiator), I then come from 37th up to 22nd overall.

Then if I go one step further and look at just RWD, I finished 11th out of 30... Sounds good to me! :laugh:

Oh, and who was on the clock for battle 1... Apparently I pulled a 29 second run on my first battle???

(although means nothing coz I nudged the cone in the finishing box!)

Bring on round 2 already!!!!!!

Thanks dude :thumbsup:

I'll class that as a reasonable, still fail though. Trying to do better than 3rd AWD this year and epic diff fail hurt me :D

Loving the mega mini wang though. More I think about it the more fun it was.

Half because it was new, half because its quite challenging compared to the other events. Sooo much gravel

The 0 points for a WD really hurts now, still 11th is my best result yet, thank you twin turbos :worship:. still plenty of improvement possible, looks like i still need to show a bit more commitment on the wangs.

congrats to the winners :thumbsup:

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
