hey anyone stay for the tarmac rally cars? 2 off R34 GTRs and I think snowys R35. lucky bastards doin laps of albert park!

umm Renault megane trophy was pretty sweet to.

Yep was me. Was such an epic experience.

Also massively put into perspective the times the F1's do and even things like their braking points (or at times complete lack of!). In the end I think my best time was around 2.15 so we still aren't anywhere near their times in the wet!

Well have to take the good from the bad and it seems that Albert Park was pretty hard on cars so going to focus on the fact I was fortunate to not have made it as it may have broken the car more than it already is

About to head in...going to be a lottery dip. Funny, when Webber was in a nowhere car I loved wet races as it gave him a chance. Now he is in a car that is in the hunt I hate wet lottery races :(

supposed to be 17 and sunny by 17:00

wind's coming in from SW-ish and the cloud is currently breaking up fairly rapidly. matter of fact, looking down past St Kilda beach i see huge chunks of blue sky

I know you fellas watching at home prolly want some precipitation, but us sat here in the stands don't...

    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
