Think I'll do a bit of practice later tonight if I get the chance, not sure which I'll drive yet I do like the Solstice for an easy fun drive but maybe the Spec Racer or perhaps the MX5 Cup, no not the MX5, bah!!! But maybe the MX5!!! So need to practice! :P

think ill go the Ford. MX5s visibility is terrible and I find it super temperamental too. touch the brake at higher speeds and it gets very unstable, look at the car disapprovingly and it starts to understeer (even when stationary)

Yeah I did a few laps around lime rock in the srf last night. Moved the brake bias fwd a few percent and the baseline set wasn't too bad. So I'm thinking I'll race that

One more night till the first round is upon us! If you haven't already head over to iRacing.com and sign up to the league, just search SAU Vic iRacing Championship :) And if anyone else has a number they want in particular on their car let me know otherwise I'll just numbers the cars in the order they appear on the league page.

What a great way to start the series! Clean, safe and fun racing had by all!!!

Here are the results -

Next month sees the series at Laguna Seca on Wednesday the 2nd of July. Plenty of time to practice! :)

Didn't realise I was the only one left in the crappy car until the end

The car numbers and types seem to be mixed between Qual and Race for mine and Liam's cars

Not sure why the number mixed up, do you mean the style of the numbers? Will have a look in the replay but sounds like an iRacing bug, report it to them when you get the chance :)

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
