Guys,

Just letting you know there is another Winton Fun Day scheduled on Dec 19th.

Don't have full details for it yet but the last one was $20 - you got a stack of track time and all you need is a helmet. So no CAMS etc etc etc.

So pics from the last one here:

Hey Snowman,

What was the previous day like?? Did you get enough track time etc with the amount of people who showed up? Also what was the d***head factor like considering you don't need a CAMS licence?

Did you guys just drive up on the Sunday 'cause I was thinking of driving up on the sat, staying s/where and then driving back on the sun after the event?

cheers :P

Ant - basically the day gets broken into half hour driver only sessions, followed by half hour passenger sessions. You can pretty much go straight from the track back into the queue with a passenger if you are that keen (and your brakes are up to it).

I'd say we got close to 3hrs track time. Put it this way - Both me and my brakes had had enough of track driving by the end of the day! There wasn't really any dickheads - mostly the day is about guys bringing their families along and showing them what its like on the track - or people to have a feel for it and see if they like it.

With all the cars on the track its hard to get a good run. We were passing up to 20 cars in one laps! But it was fun. It was different fun to a usual track day as you had to take a totally different line cause you were always passing people.

Yes, Scott has already got a small bunch of groupies going to this event, and is looking at going sat afternoon for a stay over in wang.

I recommend Winton fun day as a first track event for all. It is also the legendary formation site of the eara that is "TEAM WANG." Where all are welcome to come along and race their wangs.

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
