So in an effort to bring a professionally run Time Attack event to Vic, Jason (who many of you know) has put some skin on the line to promote VTA.

It's interesting as the big WTAC draws competitors from all over, while the smaller VTA and NSWTA struggle to get entries.

So with VTA for 2016 there is a demo/testing class, which for $250 you get access to the track and a huge amount of testing time.

It's looking like 4-5 groups on the day, so break that down into 12 minute sessions and you'd expect 7 sessions atleast.

Yes, yes Time Attack cars come with oil. I think you'll find the teams that are coming for VTA won't bring those issues. If we do the WAP oil soak machine will be on-hand to clean things up quickly.

For $250 you get access to the demo/testing class. Yep bit more expensive than a PIRAC day, but there are only going to be 50-60 cars, not 100+.

Yes it's a Friday, which is a little odd. But value for money track time, this day has it down pat.

This offer is available to anyone, so if you know anyone wanting to do testing let them know.

Oh and it's a 95db day.

Everyone will have their own preference on ecu and fuel management systems but I agree people like to follow popular opinion, regardless of whether or not it's based on truth. I have seen cars putting out over 400rwkw with a PowerFC doing just fine. Going higher power output some people tend to favour the additional tuning features that come with more expensive systems, such as Motec or Haltech. Each to their own, whatever works.

Very impressive John, especially on those tyres! Would you go to AO50 if you could use them in the same class without putting you in Modified? If your R33 is classified as Street then it's still road registered???

Has to have rego for WTAC rules, waste money really.

PFC is PnP and just works. My car is pretty simple, so it works well.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
