It was a sensational night wasnt it??!?!?  ;)  

Well worth the $90 without a doubt. I dont care if some places are cheaper, the facilities and track at this place is wicked fun. The track is much more technical the Sunshine

LOL, i loved the dorifto, first time i've got sideways in anything for months!

I remember passing comment Nath said to me when we got out after qualifying.

Man, your just sideways all the time  :)

So true  lol!  It's sensational fun, and an SAU day will have to be organised for SURE!

I told ya that weight made a difference. I just kept sliding all over the place till the tyres got warm  lol!

And Ben, your banned from coming next time, your too good   :D   LOL!  J/K

So stay tuned... SAU Karting championship will be coming...

I vote for Sunshine and try to do it short notice, say 4-5 days in advance to determine weather conditions. I have raced there in the wet though and it was awesome. Also taken the race kart out in the wet and discovered spin that politicians would lust after.

Great Idea, but I think the first rule should be who's allowed to race & who's not.

I say, the following people should be on the Banned from racing list.

a) Kev - Anyone that's seen him handle a car will understand, how he'll make a mockery out of ALL of us.

B) Ben - Coz, he just wins everything anyway, and he has laaaaaunch control :(

But Meshmesh my kart is not all that fast, anyone who knows about Karts will tell you that a Formula A Rotax Rotary Valve is slow compared to a hire Kart. :bs!:

Hire Kart 5 - 8 HP (Now that's some serious power !!)

Rotax Rotary Valve 32 HP, it only revs to 20,000 rpm (Gutless !!)

:P

Kev, I rekon even if we gave you the Hire Kart, and we had the Rotax, you'd still ripp something out of your hat, and blow us away. So give up... You're officially banned from racing :( OK! Unless offcourse Parliment change the legislation.

Kev mate - if you let me have a go in your kart Im there for sure. 20,000rpm sounds hella fun

It's also friggin expensive when the carby mixtures aren't set right !!

It's a little bit prone to seizing :P

BTW I just reminded Scott to get in contact with you

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
