Been waiting all year for this :)

just got to get the civic ready

Reverse figure 8, is the track ran backwards? or you go straight instead of turning left and going down the dipper? have only ran it clockwise

Edited by xris

ok so im about to enter, only thing im confused about, i know asaa licence covers it, but, club member? as in wrx or skylines aus member? im asuming i need to pay the $95 as im a sau member? let me know about that and ill submit the forms, 2nd event! be interesting to see the differences over deca

Heads up to people thinking of heading out to hh (bryant park) next month wanting practice this month.

GCC has an event this sun (I'm thinking of entering depending upon weather) entries close tomorrow 5.30pm.

Only 2 problems

1. If they get 100 cars, you really don't get many runs at all (where WRX is 80)

2. It's CAMS and not AASA, so anyone without CAMS it's extra $$

not what i wanted to hear martin! :yucky:

They are still better than cold high performance road tyre like a AD08 - so it's not a major concern.

It's more the brakes and having no heat in them on the reverse Fig 8 given after you launch you can have some fair speed going and need to jump on the anchors. Lots of time to be gained there if you know your braking setup performance from cold.

agreed but from what I ahve seen in the past they don;t get anywhere near that number.

meant to be a well run day as well.

we might be looking at doing some GCC rounds as part of our champ next year.

Heathcote timing never works, track condition depends on the moon.

Not worth driving up there for it. Better off going to Calder on a proper track with timing even though it costs more and you get less runs

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
