On the knock out rounds you do but not during the free runs 

I've seen it at the finals at Eastern Creek.

As for penalties, it depends on who you are from my experience.

I know there's likely more skill in drag racing, getting a car to leave well etc, but I do wish there was some roll racing closer to me. It seems like a great way to blow off some steam with your mates, hear angry spooly boi noises, trap some fun km/h and hopefully not be as rough on the car as hard launches are.

Another great night at Roll Racing

Made light work of a 5.0L V8...

As you can see, my oil pressure gauge is rising nicely as I power through each gear. Stock bottom end , stock gearbox , and still going strong !!!!!! 80° oil temp ALL night baby, this is a turn key package.

watch me gain about 10 car lengths on this piece of Detroit muscle

Wow you actually did it! You f**king beat a v8 wow man high five.

 

Wow again, thanks for sharing the incredible moment. How hot was the turbine housing?

Shit yes, wasn't hard pal. Despite your obvious sarcasm, factually your response is bang on!!!

When you gonna race my Kamikaze S15? Wouldn't mind seeing you throw your toys when I dust ya!

this thing run a number yet?

Not yet...but from a 40kmh roll on a 250m course, I'm trapping over 205kmh at the finish line.

That's serious business for a 2.0L with a torque limited tune!!! The top end is just limitless really - the head is just begging for more boost. It's making the power so easy and I'm f**king slingshotting in 4th gear on other cars.

Even with a stock bottom end its a 300kmh speed rocket.

Is it running boost by gear?

I think I need to dust off my hoon jacket.

I've been spending a little time making some small improvements to the S15. I had the wiring for the speed controller modified with 4 Pin Deutsche plugs to handle some extra current, and fabricated 2 Brackets and mounted it adjacent the surge tank. After that, spent a little time detailing the original paint back to glass finish and finished it with Dodo Carnuba Wax.

Emptied the oil catch can which presented around 15ml worth of oil after 5,000kms of driving, thus meaning there is next to no blowby. Should have the car out at Roll Racing next month, although damn, the itch to get a Samsonas sequential is wearing me down LOL

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
