Nice idea Eric re: that Maccas. Unfortunately as that's the M4 Maccas doesn't that mean you need to then loop back around to head into SMP? Why there's no road joining the rest stop to Peter Brock Dr (which is like a stone's throw away) is anyone's guess.

2 Options?

A) Shell Servo at corner of GWH and Brabham Drive

https://goo.gl/maps/Bzpvq - Nothing to eat though, really.

B) Alpha Hotel at Brabham Drive / Peter Brock Drive roundabout (formerly Chifley Hotel)

http://www.alphahoteleasterncreek.com.au/the-hotel/drink-dine/ - Octane Restaurant serves breakfast from 6:30am on Saturdays.

Situated next to reception, Octane Restaurant is open 7 days a week serving up a sumptuous buffet breakfast reflecting the freshest and best local produce available. Octane is a bright and sunny place to relax over breakfast and the newspaper, however if you’re after something in a hurry, take-away coffee and other light breakfast items can be prepared ready-to-go.

  • Full Breakfast $26.00
  • Continental Breakfast $20.00

your packs are supposed to come in email today, in regards to entering the SNS on the day u cannot.

Just received my bump in pack, looks like there'll be different set times for different groups of cars.

I got 7:00-8:30AM time bracket, if you guys fall within that, I'll tag along to the meet point mentioned above.

I've got 7-8:30 timeslot too. I think they grouped car clubs together so we can all set up properly.

I'd love an Saunsw Sticker as well to put on my windscreen for the show... do I ask Shell? Nick?

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
