this would be a good co-incidence for a meet up/cruise. yes/no?  

btw anyone here going to mallala.

What on at Mallala?

I might enter in the 4,6,Rot for the hell of it. I'll be in the 12s, so nothing majorly quick but should be interesting.

Clint, I have an entry form if you need to know more info.

Yeah but the problem is to race at the Nats you need consistency - as you have to dial in your own times. Last year I got owned by own lack of consistency (and a blown heavy duty clutch on the day :D ). Not going to bother this year 'cos my car is so slow and old this year hehe

Hmmm, thought there'd be a catch...stuff that then. Will do the 16th feb meet instead. Thanks for the heads up old boy.

It would be so nice to catch up and cruise down there guys

It's been so long since I saw you guys and your beasts.

Sorry to hear that you are not attending Nightcrawler. However that means you are available to organise a meeting point and the cruise, something that you have demonstrated to be exceptional at mate :D I was going to enter this for the fun of it but it looks like my gear box won't be ready for it. It is however should be ready for the crusie though. Damn my car is never ready for much. I should have bought a Nissan :wassup:

I heard this year is going to be bigger than any other years. There will be marques and trade displays there with the drag. Try to come along ppl. Would be nice to :D

don't get me wrong Lach - you get to do plenty of warm-up and classification runs befor the comp. actually starts - and it's bloody amazing racing in front of tons of people. I think you should go out for the Nats, it is still way fun. I was just whingeing about my bad fortune last year - don't let me tak you out of it!

Danh, we'll definitely make a meet up place to cruise out there as a group - will advise closer to the date.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
