Well my first time back at wsid in about 8mths with high hopes and that's where it ended. My car is now running better than ever and once again I still couldn't grab a decent time, I feel like headbutting a brick wall :(

I did manage to get a new PB but only by literally a bee's dick.

1. 14.489 @ 94.84mph / 2.190sec

It felt nice and smooth, launch was the usual but for some reason I was -way- down on mph, I didn't even miss a gear :D

2. 15.265 @ 100.23mph / 2.737sec

First run after a 30min rain period. Absolutely no grip on the greazy track and simply bagged em up!

3. 14.145 @ 102.07mph / 2.167sec (<- new PB)

Tried to slam the gears harder, felt smooth once again and managed to get a new PB (old PB was 14.163 @ 100.20mph / 2.148sec).

4. 14.252 @ 100.87mph / 2.166sec

Once again was trying to work the gears hard but was slightly slower even though it felt just as good *shrugs*

5. 14.571 @ 98.02mph / 2.184sec

Used low boost this time (7psi) just for shits n giggles (even though high boost is only about 8-9psi haha).

As you can see my launches are pretty much spot on everytime (even though 2.1xx sec is not overly impressive atleast it's consistent). Sure I could grab some semi-slicks or even drag nitto's etc and probably shave off a tenth or 2 but I shouldn't need to when i'm making a solid 195+ rwkw. I'm a good 0.5sec off the pace of where I believe I should be (and the times others are doing in similar powered cars) and im stumped as to what it is (obviously it's the driver).

Was a great nite of racing (besides the rain periods). Some awesome cars about and probably the biggest meeting i've seen in a good 5-6mths. Wish I left my car in the carpark and spectated instead.

i only ended up getting 240RWKW

need to lower compression gonna get a steal head gasget, that will bring her up to the 290 mark.

im gonna buy some slicks soon, just gotta find out how to fit them without removing the brakes, 16" is the only size that can go on.

any1 know where i can get piks from last night??????

Sorry mate as I've said several times in the past the 20g wont flow enough to make 290 its impossible, maybe some decent drag radials would be better then slicks as then you don't have to worry about the added cost of front runners

    • Whilst the brewery had good beer, I didn't rate the pork knuckle, the meat was good, but, there was no crackling, the skin was just thick and chewy Will return at some stage for the beer, but, I will wash the beer down with chips Plus, no sauerkraut, in what world do people serve pork knuckle without sauerkraut, they did serve apple slaw with it, which was nice, but.......#sauerkraut the world
    • Wow yeah ok. Given how specific you are about your car, I'm very surprised you are happy to do that.  As a bare minimum, without having a wideband gauge in the car or running it up on the dyno to check mixtures, there is no way I'd do that to my car.  You beat me to it, was going to say just this. 
    • Yeah - that's not true. Larger turbos flow more at the same boost. By definition. I've always found it funny when the claim of same flow same power because same boost is made. The turbine is larger, therefore will put up a lower restriction to flow at any given flow, cf the stock one. Hence, you need less boost to make the same flow through the whole system. Hence, when you have the same boost as before, you must have more flow. -5s are a pretty decent bit bigger than stock.
    • That's basically how I've been driving my R33 for a while now. GTIII-SS running wastegate boost. It makes no more power than stock because the turbos aren't flowing any more air than stock. Eventually though I need to fix this so it can actually drive as it should.
    • If this was my own car, I would pull about 5 degrees off the CAS, run a wideband, and if that seems ok, send it.
