Thanks to the guys that lent me cable ties, it nearly got me home :dry:

Better him doing it there rather than being told no only for him to go round the corner and do it anyway but on public roads.

found it amusing that the last one on for skids was one of theses

a P plater and all

Mr. Cassbo looks like our next budding photographer! Some great shots on his FB page. Good reason to get on his friends list.

Thanks Matt!

Thanks Eric! Love getting positive feedback :woot:

Unfortunately I plan on being on the smoky side of the camera for next Texi so quality and quantity may suffer. Don't use this as an excuse to sabotage my car though :P

I'll be dumping high(er) res photos onto Flickr tonight for all those who are still without Facebook ;)

^^^Exactly. He was quite polite about having a quick go too and came up to say thanks afterwards

Yeah no drama with it.

Just mad I missed out on getting the really smoky pics.:

^ That's super cool, I can see myself just to the right of Aggro's car

I've got the time sheets. Might just scan them and post rather than hand typing them in (royal PITA).

Heh that's kind of why I re-wrote my timesheet out neater during the lunch break ;)

Image 2 - Supra Going faster than I'd expect

Image 3 - Supra loosing the back end

** Not shown - Me finally steped back and stoped taking photos cause I eventually realised the Supra was in a reversing B line for right where I was standing.

Image 4 - Supra ego hurt so driver took it out on the grass...

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
