Great clip, would you do the event again? What do you reckon it set you guys back in the end? 

Laughed at the Integra pulling away after the chicane then at his shit line into T1. 

Car really di dnot want to turn in did it, you did a great job keeping the momentum up. 
 

Yea would do it again in a heart beat

costs who knows 2-3k per driver

but that’s a week away from the kids on the piss with the boys and 3 days of racing

so cheap holiday I guess

 

there are some pretty special drivers there so you have to be on point when overtaking as some of the cars are quite fast and make you work for it

I think I'm going to try doing a use oil test for the new motor, I want to get a real idea of what kind of life the oil really has in it (as i wanna use some half decent shit). 

Maybe no need to worry about that for the dirty30. 

How do the rules work with lemons? Engine swap count to your budget? 

I just can't fathom how any builds a car for the budget or is it only the original purchase price of the car must be 1k or less? I know safety gear is "free".

 

No idea how the rules work

 

having been to a few it appears you get a shit car and stuff a decent motor in it

eg Bmw318 with 330 motor ( blew past us like standing still)

every pulsar there had a neovvti upgrade engine

if you go there to win your missing the point

 

its more about getting on the cans and having a good time

I dont care about winning, but I do care about not spending the entire weekend just working on a shit box and not driving it. 

Was that BMW the polizei one? That was a local car from a mate of mine.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
