Those speed humps massacre the cross member, rails and subframe. This car hangs lower than a s/r chassis even though its not even tucking tread on 19s

Was worse going out lol

Lol is be scared to look under it :O

looks like I missed another great texi.

even if I wanted to come, I couldnt have.

ended up with back troubles that are still persistent even now.

didnt get anything done I wanted to.

next texi, hopefully will be there.

Glad I dropped by to spectate, lots of cool cars and great to see such a good turnout at the Texi. Was good to catch up with everyone and meet some new faces.

Was kicking myself that I didn't enter, especially once it started raining as it really was ideal conditions for getting sideways with minimal tyre wear lol.

I showed you minimal tyre wear :P

I think I completed about 3 runs by the book all day, and they were slow at that. I find it very hard to navigate, so some frustration may have resulted in a 3rd gear skid....

I've just finished putting together another vid from all the rest of the footage I have.

Its rendering now, and then it has to upload, so most likely be up tomorrow, if not later tonight.

Lots of slow mo skids. :)

Cheers,

Haha pretty sure thats when Terry was telling me I was being beaten by the leaf judging by the way he is laughing

Now if you Daniel had paid me enough money to add a couple seconds to the Leaf's time, I might have succumbed to graft ;)

Lol

Show off :P

Awesome, can't wait to see it!! The slow mo stuff really does look good!!

I wonder who that sexy sexy man is with Chewbacca on his head...?

That's not a nice thing to say about Terry man :P haha...

Your Chewbacca thingy was pretty awesome tho :yes:

For those who don't know Chewbacca Head - it's Steve, A.K.A. DrDoof! You should all pay tribute to him because he and N1GTR (also Steve) and our very own Goldzilla that started the Texi's at Nirimba oh so many years ago.

Before they got us into Nirimba we had to go way down to Sutton Rd to do skidpan stuff.

    • 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.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • 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.
