Well, we had our first official event, and it was fantatsic, we had an excellent turnout of about 20 cars entered, wide variety of skylines, as well.. from an R31 coupe to a 700bhp GTR.

A huge thanks to everyone who attended, and its great to see things are starting to pick up for skylines australia.

To check out some of our results check this thread

Hopefully some of the other states can follow our lead and get some events underway and show that SAU will be strong, calder park raceway was pleased at the support we had!

Again, Thanks all!

nobody told us we were meant to meet afterwards.

:D

In fact, nobody (including the Calder staff) had a clue about anything...

We weren't told until about 1:30 that we shouldn't have been sitting where everyone was sitting...

that the area was for 'drivers only' (shouldnt the drivers be in their cars??)

People who were with us were refused access to the infield, and told that they were only allowed into particular areas, and that was only if they had purple pit crew bands.

I ended up giving my purple band to someone so they could get back in.

There was no burnout comp which was a disappointment....

I vote that if we do this again, we do it at Heathcote. :uh-huh:

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/

      Yeah it is wild how much wider the Yokohama A050 in 255/40R17  vs Yokohama AD09 in 255/40R17 sits on the 17x9 +22 considering its even from the same brand and adjacent product family

      Would love to see some examples of WMI making the same as E85. Only thing I've ever found is this one.  Which suggests WMI is not worth much at all.

      And now the washer bottle looks like an orphan. You're going to have to spend money on a wrinkle black painted fabbed ally one of those. Oh, and the brake MC res. That won't look any good after you've gotten rid of the washer bottle. You going to need to go back to work to keep up with this?
