Gonna be a great couple of days. Good variety of cars in the lineup! http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.504017609719791.1073741830.253752048079683&type=3

Brendan even though you ran low boost last year I was heavily impressed by your 34, will have to have another ride in it again this year. :) I'm working on getting some cameras from Sony that will measure some race data with the footage, pending if the GPS will get signal out there.

Hey, Brandon. You have booked yourself a seat, mate! And wait until you see what my good mate Danny at Garage101 has done with the tuning for E85, with a Haltech ethanol analyser in the fuel line. It is almost scary on full boost and the booze! I have also got my HKS DMR camera system set up now so if you can use any of that from the two camera view, you are welcome! Definitely learned a lot last year and the car will be sooo much better this year!

Should be a great weekend! :D

Awesome sounds good! As long as it's 1080P resolution I should be able to use it. If it has an option to change the frame rate set it to 25 frames. :)

Don't forget about the Racewars Dyno Day on March 8 guys. $50 for 2 runs. 2WD dyno only.

Bart, did you get a good 1,000m run in?

Ant Scali took the event out running 306 km/h at 17.7 seconds in his 32R, AMAZING!

Great fun! Achieved 251 km/hr on the third run which put me 25th out of 83 cars that attempted the VMax run. Not as much as I had hoped, but learnt a lot. So - more power, less granny shifts, etc. for next year. Still, I doubt there were many cars, if any, ahead of me that were daily drivers!

As usual, the hospitality in Country WA was fantastic. The people at the place I stayed in Dowerin were great and all the local folk who came to talk to me at the event were really complimentary about the car. I have raised over $1,700 for the Children's Leukaemia and Cancer Research Foundation at the event. Anyone wishing to donate can go to:

I will have to get the original piccies from the photographers! Great talking to some of you there.

Cheers,

Brendan.

      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?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
