yeah I fired it up a bit yesterday, Got stuck with some class one dickheads in the Mx5s; they were going hella slow around lime rock and because I didn't qualify I started from the back, trying to work my way through and they just would block me on the straight and just be assholes. I managed to get around most of them by driving in their blind spot for a few corners and then sneak past exiting the corner. Still managed to come 2nd :D

Had a go at oval too, figgured I suck at that, I was OK in the legends and manged to lead for a few laps but I'd just cook my tyres and run wide into the walls :(

The biggest and most enjoyable thing I found was getting out of the Rookie/Class D series, with maybe the exception of the Skip Barber, as that's a fun car to drive as long as the racing is clean. I'm happy they've made the Radical a class C car again with races going off every couple of hours, because the Radical is an awesome car to drive. It's one of the ones I can actually drive on the limit strangely, I can't do the same with most of the open wheelers... I seem better with tin tops like the Mustang etc. *shrug*

And yeah, jerks in the MX5 blocking is annoying.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
    • Shimmed or shimless, still solid, no hydraulic pump up stuff.
    • They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
