But it also why I don;t watch it anymore.

look at LMP1

you can have petrol, diesel, different forms of hybrids, different driven wheels, (yes we still love you NIsmo no matter how much crack you smoking)

and technology from it trickles down into road cars most recently the laser lighting system from AUDI.

either that for the FIA GT3 championship where the cars are still based on the factory ones.

oh and bathurst...cos beer.

yeah its much more exciting.

the 2 national level sports sedan series are 2-3 seconds faster at sandown than Carrera GT3 and V8 SC. and theyre basically budget motorsport compared to those teams (well, not budget, but almost grassroots really)

what are the national level sports sedan series?

Thought CAMSpulled their national standing?

Sports sedans is stilla series but not a championship (no idea difference) but for the rest Yeah they all been given the flick as a "national series"

cams basiclly Fked every-one who did not have a million to run a team.

hmmmm.

im not sure how it should be done. but it seems that other than time attack and drifting, motorsport doesnt seem to be increasing in popularity or exposure or participation. its nice to see some new cars and victorian track backs in the V8 SC calendar though.

Fined because he breached "Safety" protocol by doing a burnout on the track in front of the grand stand...

Are they forgetting that he was on the track, the spot that 5 minutes earlier he drove over the same patch of asphalt at 250km/h?

I can somewhat see the logic.

there are still ppl racing for places so travelling at 200+ km over that patch, add in a heap of smoke and an unknown car, could go bad.

BUT..

considering every fan wants to see that, and that the only time he in front of the main crowd, plus I'm sure he pulled to the side and did it not just doing donuts in the middle, a quiet reminder that it is to be done after turn 1 would be more than enough.

ideally they should be encouraging a bit of showmanship after the finish to keep the human in the sport, every-one is on radios anyhow.

eg more of this...(NSFW comments)

and less PR planned stuff.

its not like he stopped on the finishline and did a skid... he would have passed the line as fast as everyone else and then slowed down/stopped. he was pulled over to the racecourse side of the track (not on the race line). and its not like he was sitting there doing an easternats level of smoke.

Bring back the land of "she'll be right"

Sick of bureaucratic safety and OH&S generally f**king up more lives than it saves

To quote Krusty I think the survivors would envy the dead

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
