Those of you that have been to one of these before will agree, this is
the best money you can spend as far as driving time for an event. The
event will be run after run until 4.30pm, and considering most runs are
under 1 minute AND that we're kicking off at 9am, that's a lot of runs wink.gif


This is a safe event where you only go as hard as you want to, there's
no pressure, one car on a course at a time. Perfect for beginners to
have a first try at driving their pride and joy off the streets.


With that said, there's usually some friendly competition between mates, which is great to watch smile.gif

the 32 may make its debut, cage is going in this week! by side pipe is that include a pipe which exits just before the rear wheel? if so im gonna need another exhaust lol

I'll talk to Dave about it. Although, normally we do not refund unless the event sells out. We still have real costs to cover and the last one was far FAR from full.

it wasn't the last event, it was the June or July one.

check the texi thread, i recall there were only a handful of spots left and there was still high interest and last minute spots were only available by lineup early on the day.

if you can, that be great thanks!

Pedal car? What kinda car r u entering?

the mighty leaf.

since the only fire risk is the battery, which can't be put out with a foam extinguisher......but I suspect AASA don't have clear regs on electric cars yet?

Labs/airlines recommend putting it out with water. I think Eric should specify that you have to drive with a bucket of water in the passenger footwell.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
