I think I read it was the side skirts of the kit.

Must have fallen outside of:

"Original under body floor between the axles is required, no flat bottoms, diffusers, etc may extend forward of the rear axle or aft of the front axle."

Team USA had wiring issues (i heard) and kept breaking ecu units.

I had a pretty good weekend, didn't get the mid 40 I wanted. Thats ok, something to aim for next year.

Good to put some faces to names.

Sounds similar to my weekend.

Either popped or broke 3 driveshafts in 3 sessions.

Didn't finish a lap with 4wd, in fact I didn't make it past Corporate Hill with 4wd once!!

Was towed off 1 session when the above smashed itself to bits, made a hell of a noise when it let go.

Oh well, like Richo, there's always next year.....

You did look good on the live stream hanging the arse out :)

was good to watch and on live stream I got to see heaps of the action

I'm hoping to have the 34 at a point I can enter it next year in clubsprint

This is the lap from the Superlap Shootout. Done the whole event on 1 set of Advan A050, Nothing left of the tyres pushing a 1750kg GTR around for 20 laps over the 2 days. Still managed to do a 1:40.4362 only .08 of a second of my best lap time for the event. Maximum attack on shagged tyres sliding around,

Nice work, man she looks heavy.

Is there any substantial weight saving being done on R35s yet?

When you look at Pro Class and see it being dominated by Evo's and Silvia's, you've gotta wonder if there's any way to really beat a light chassis without drag car levels of horsepower - which is useless on a control tyre anyway.

Woah! You sure we're manhandling it round the track haha, looks like a whole heap of fun though!

No weight saving in my R35 has full trim just took the baby seats out for Time Attack. This is the main problem with R35's the tyres go like jelly due to the weight. There is no way i can do more than 1 lap on the soft A050 tyres.

Hey guys, congrats to all the SAU'ers that did so well. Truely impressive!

Here is a compilation video I did from Saturday's highlights. Wish I could have been in 4 places at once to catch all the action.

    • 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
