So, does anyone else find it interesting. The top two cars for the day were #9 and #5.

#9 was the Lance in his Dark R33 GTR with the white LMGT1's a prime example of a beautifully modified GTR.

#5 was ~Anna~ in her essentially stock MX5

Just goes to show that you don't need $1000's in a modified high power car to perform well at Texi. Well done to both.

Yes, I'm familiar with the GTR. Has a fair bit. Can't remember the power figure but pretty sure is north of 300kw. Also that Kakimoto zorst sounds horn. Last time I ran against him in my 33, he beat me every time (he can steer too!).

So, who wants to see some texi results? :whistling:

Why not head over to the BRAND NEW SAU NSW Website and check them out!

You'll find them in the "Leaderboard" section!

Hi Guys & Gals, awesome day & as usual well run & organised, so big up's to those dedicated few that donated their time. Personally I think that was the best Texi yet as I'm sure no one could complain about a shortage of time on the skid pan!

Definately most fun I've had learning to do heli's :no:

I've owned my car for 5 years & love that I can still continue to push the boundary's of both my ability & the car's ability. Bring on the next Texi.

Watched BMY.74G GTR pull away about 10 times so far, so clean and smooth, :yes:

And watching the red GT (Agro's car????) made it look easy.

Might make an appearance next texi, i've been away from texi for long enough.

Skill level seems much improved from years back as well.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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.

      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.
