Being such kind folk...

Should we bring along tools for WRX,EVO and other teams to use like Made In China SAE sockets with hairline cracks, jack stands with small feet that'll readily sink in soft wet soil, sun-damaged cable ties, pre-cross-cut gaffa tape etc?

I haven't felt so mole-like since I was in HS.

lol terry i hope we are never on opposite teams. :laugh:

Hey mate, once you get into the super secret member's section, there is a club club motorsport thread to check out. This particular event is a little different, but generally hillclimbs are regular, accessible, and excellent fun :)

Now that sounds like a brilliant plan!

Thanks to everyone for heading up to support the club team today.

It was a great event, shame it finished a bit early due to the big storm. Lots of quick cars although some of the fancy time attack did not end up at the pointy end of the field.

1st was heafy's evo, 2nd fernance evo, 3rd mckinnon.

Our guys came home:

Nick 8th 41.24

Brian 11th 42.32

Matt 30th 46.63

Me 32nd 46.75

Maurice 41st 51.38

Well done for everyone giving it a go in tricky conditions, and from me particular thanks to Neil for handing over Cheryl's keys when I couldn't get ready in time.

And most of all, good on Nulon for putting this event together, looking forward to the next round at wake on 4 July

Big thanks for Nulon for putting the event on, shame I never got a quick dry run, my very first run in the dry was the quickest while still finding where the road went, next two run had a wet track which was a bugger, But ready to go for next year now I know the track :)

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
