Australian Tarmac Rally Championship: Snowy River Sprint (23-24 November)


Recommended Posts

Any of you guys want to come do this?

I did Round 2 at Lake Mountain and had an absolute blast (driving at over 160km/h in tight twisty roads!)

I am helping the organizers get some numbers for the touring event. This is basically like a cruise, but with unrestricted speeds on closed public roads (no cars and no police!!).

This one is on November 23-24 and for $600 you get unlimited driving and a cocktail party!!

Any vehicle is welcome, it can be a complete rally car, track car, street car or even a stock car!

All you need is a AASA license (which you can get on the day for $50) and a helmet.

A navigator/passenger is not necessary at all.

sounds awesome, definitely on the to do list

can log booked race cars go in the touring category?

and how do the transport stages work with unregistered vehicles? do they need to be trailered?

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
