Yeah - I drive a silver R32. I will have to have a look at what speeds I am on other parts of the circuit. The software isn't on this computer.

I run the state series primarily with the occasional national event (Went to Bathurst this year but would never go back. They just give you no track time) I run #31.

thats cool Ryan.. i help out number 42

i have seen your car at every event but couldn't make out who it was!

how was bathurst in the FF - did you have to lift the car at all?

will catch up with at round one next if not on a cruise before hand!

Duncan:

You talking car speed or wheel speed! If you looked at my wheel speed on entry to turn 2 compared to on exit you'd think I had 1000rwkw :flower:

Unofficialy I've run about 1:13 when folowing Daz around, but I wasn't happy with the pads I was running at the time and hope to go quicker on the 1/11. I've also got some half decent road rubber to use this time compared to the junk I was running last time.

hahaha Poakey....try 3rd gear coming out of there instead, wheelspin problem solved, and you don't have to worry about a gear change while coming out of the sweeper :D

New tyres will help heaps...but I think you will find that brakes just slow you down :P

Duncan:

3rd gear just means I need to hit the handbrake earlier and carry more speed into the corner otherwise I bog down on exit and the car straightens out!

fatz:

If borrowing a friends car is instantly worth 10km/h, then I ought to take a hire car for the day. I could blow straight past the 1:10 barrier and aim for some 1:08's!

Not to mention that if we all got the same stock rentals we could have an awesome control class! Any takers?!

Bathurst Was a nightmare. We got treated like crap. The first pratice session we got 4 laps and qualifying we got 5. Race 1 got reduced to 3 laps with one behind the safety car. The 2nd race was only 7 laps with another 2 behind the pace car. Some of the driving was pretty bad - but on the other hand they give young drivers 9 laps to learn a track like Bathurst and dont expect carnage.

If the V8's are running at an event I wouldn't enter. They dont mind taking your money but give you sweet F.A. in return.

We didn't have to lift the car at all. Didn't bottom out anywhere. I will see you at the track sometime

yup mx5 challenge

costs 120 bux for the day

Pete, where can I rent the MX5 from for that much? Do they limit k's (it's a long way to goulburn and back... Plus will they pass you through scrutineering in a rental ok?

    • You now say stumble, but you said cut out before. Will it slow rev through the cut/stumble? What gap were your spark plugs set to when you them in?
    • I had double clamped all the pipes but I checked them over any way, everything tight and secure. feels and sounds like a electrical short/failure, as it is an abrupt and aggressive stumble, that instantly comes and goes right at 4k mark...like clock work fuel pump and filter are new new coils and plugs injectors where cleaned and tested 200 miles plus ago no black smoke cleaned MAF   same results, other ideas? some other sensor?  
    • Yes, just without the annoying use of the word hybrid. We stopped using that term 20 years ago when we realised it meant different things to different people. Even "highflow" can represent more than one way of achieving the goal of getting more flow out of a turbo. But at least it says what it does on the box.
    • OH, when they say "solid buckets", I always interpeted that as "shimless". (Which is not the same as the "shimness word I invented above to represent the same idea that the buckets act as shims also!!). Still the same problem though. So it appears that buying a "kit" from Tomei is a two step process. Makes sense. Doesn't make sense in the context of a "kit" though.
