Whilst growing up we used to have slightly different public holidays, we did not get Melbourne cup day and would get one for the local show instead...

now days they are exactly same.

 

unless you mean country people as in I'm in another country which would then be a yes it is different public holidays.

Lol @ you bringing your mrs to the new deca and making her volunteer instead of passenger.

Gotta have gf cam for extra youtube views mang

she was happy to do it last deca and do some timing, enjoyed being close to the action 

thats why I said just the morning as she wants to jump in as passenger as well, usually I use my motorbike Helmet & gopro mount works well get to see what the driver is looking at cones / direction etc. 

Yeah Martin those sessions are pretty awesome value, can you fly a drone? feel free to use mine if you want hah

Well thats no fun then is it

I mean theres not much that could actually stop someone from doing it though ? 

(inb4 people link the radio frequency guns etc) my point is no one has them at DECA!

Edited by UNR33L

That Track Toys or whatever page had drone out to a DECA or two. But yeah, easier for insurance to just ban them as its banned basically everywhere else. Cant pull that private property stuff in aerospace

 

 

so in the rules from AASA if any-one inside the venue is using one they are to be asked to stop, and asked to leave the venue.

 

if some-one is using it from external of the venue we are to make notes and report to CASA/AASA as running a unauthorized drone over a public event is against the CASA rules.

basiclly if some-one posts drone footage of our event we can get in trouble and have issues in the future getting permits if we don;t report it.

 

and if we do report and footage crops up CASA can prosecute.

 

 

would any of this happen for an event as small as us..well I think you can gues

Do it over the grand final...whole different matter.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
