Sunday 16th of May at Wakefield.

It is on again and this one will be far the most hotly contested events we have run. There are lots of GTR's out there that really want to have a go and knock me of the fence and beat my zed. ZED V's GTR challenge. This track suits 4WD so it should be interesting. I know of three guys who are very good drivers and have full race car R32 GTR's that I suspect will give my slot car a real challenge. Terry who owns the GIO Gibson GTR said he will be bringing it.

No track experience necessary and it is a very safe track. Always a big turn out of GTR's and GTS-Ts. Free to come watch, or if you want to have a go.

We will have events caller, transponders in each car for timing, trophies and a short drift comp in the middle of the day.

, :wassup: details and entry form on our site.

Yes I plan on doing the same. Double wammy. As long as my zed survives.

Might take another set of tyres.

I was so sure that this would be a video of a Zed overtaking a GTR at Wakefield....

...... but then I realised that a Zed would had to have beaten a GTR for you to have footage of it :):(:rofl: :rofl:

... is it limited to this track only?

:)

and :bahaha: to you Merli

Better watch out tho, I seem to remember the z setting about 1.08 last year....which is pretty competitve....and thats before the franken-zed was updated again....

never copped a whooping befor, doubt it would happen, but we'll jast have to see, neer been to this race track so might be fun first time at the track and over all winner.

I think someone is setting himself up for a very hard fall :(

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
