the championship is fixed setup, but practice by yourself you can tune them. but its pretty counter-productive if you have to go back to fixed setup when racing.

Most of the "novelty" cars you cant much beyond tyre pressure and camber. The Jetta is an example. FWD FTW. would have come first last night by like 30secs if i had that beast :P

Yeh I adjusted brake bias in practice, then checked settings in the actual race and couldn't touch it all fixed

I saw you spin out at like the turn 4 hairpin did lol :P

Game is pre hard to get used to, definitely cant just throw it around like forza

The spec racer ford has a tonne of lift off oversteer. You correct it by getting very slightly on the throttle when you suspect the rear's going to get loose.

Basically to get the most out of it, the way to go is either left foot braking + a smidge of accelerator, or just wuss out and brake in a straight line, heh

I presume were running the Summit Point Raceway configuration for tonights round?

thats right, summit point. Unless stated otherwise consider it full track config each round :)

An hour till practice! Think I'll be needing this extra hour to practice as well!!! Hope to see a few of you on track tonight, summit point is a great track and the racing should be fun!!! See you there from 8pm :)

So another round over and done with, and what a race it was! After 20 laps I was exhausted!!!

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
