just got given some info from the gold coast bulletin about the future of the V8s' at indy..

they need to upgrade the pit area to allow enough room for the number of cars in the championship now! if this upgrade is not done then the V8s will have to be removed from the bill...

they are asking poeple to answer this question:

"Do you support a new pit area on Macintosh island to keep the V8 Supercars at indy?"

All you have to do is SMS yes or no, or provide a comment under 25 words,and SMS it to: 0416905147

you can email your opinion to [email protected]

the problem they are facing is its a park and they need to remove trees (2%) 30 trees in total, it will mean more parking for the area and the V8s' will run at indy in the future.

if you like to go to indy and see the V8s' then let them know!!

Thanks, Matt....

i think they should scrap the V8's and get the amature race/cruise community of the gold coast to replace them..............

the pit stop can be any macca's carpark and bonus points are awarded to neon's and all maner of rice. bonus points for chrome should be awarded on a 'per meter squared' basis. also, however many people you have in your car acts as a points multiplyer. ie, 2 people in the car means 2X points, 4 people means 4X points..............

hell i'll buy a ticket to watch that................at least they'll still drive like nutter in the rain :cheers:

lol you might be onto something there paladin.

But on a serious note there are more then enough hi-powered import/v8/exotics around here to put on a few good races and would compliment the indy cars nicely.

Inexperianced drivers with no race licenses in performance cars racing eachother would make for good spectator/tv viewing but I’m not sure whoever runs the show would like it :cheers:

maybe some time trials?

PS v8's should be there but only if they race after the indycars so they get rained on for a change :ghost:

Well I would have to say I enjoy the V8 supercars more than the Indys... Having been to both Indy and Bathurst numerous times, I can say the V8's provide a much more physical and interesting race... They are nowhere near as fast as the Indy's but definately more involving...

IMO

I'm with strutto, i'm a dedicated V8 supercar fan and watch every race and always attend the QLD 500 (or 300 now). I go to indy for the V8's, the champ cars are pretty cool but if there was no V8's i wouldn't go.

SMS sent!

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.

      Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
