Considering i was a 'free agent' this year seemed to work longer and harder than last year!

Long day yesterday arrived at the track at 8am our final GT race finished at 7.15 and didn't leave the track closer to 10 due to a banged up Merc

Car didn't make it out on track but the 2nd one got a podium for the weekend.

The mosler I was 'working' with kept it on the track and after we discussed some changes on friday night the car picked up 5secs a lap to be competitive today

was great to see the crowds all comment on how interesting the GT races were this year.

and if anyone wants to buy me a AMG SLS i won't say no :worship:

And here come the shameless promo girl pics :D ..... not nearly as many there this year as previous years :( .... but not too bad all the same.

Most of them were behind the pits I found over the last 2 days, ran into a couple in there that i knew ( the joys of throwing after parties :nyaanyaa: )

but over all I thought they were down, and unlike you i don't go out of my way to find them lol

GT had some today for the podium presentation in the paddocks

*EDIT* there are a few more back there behind the drivers

Those AMG cars sounded awesome, but someone has to tell me what the hell was in that Ferrari that lead most the race on Sunday! Thing flew down to that Senna Chicane like an F1 car! The GT40 thought it could fly....backwards into the barrier.

Least the young lad is being taught at a young age :P

Yep the SLS is very Awesome..... not that i'm biased.

The answer to the 458 is Alan Simonsen... if you own a Ferrari and want it to win you give him a call.

Car is same spec and similar speeds to the Merc, but it gets around with a lot more drama and noise, where as the Merc doing similar lap times are some what more relaxed / lethargic sounding so its quite deceptive.

I'm still blown away at the crowds reaction to the GT races this year, its all been so positive its amazing to hear / see.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
