15/04/05 - SAu/Mercury Motorsport Meet and Greet BBQ!


Recommended Posts

It's that time again to come and meet and greet the guys at Mercury Motorsport and other members of the club.

A sausage sizzle and cordial/cold water will be provided for free and cans of softdrink will be available at a small cost.

The dyno WILL NOT be run due to the amount of noise complaints that Mercury have been receiving lately. Below is the word from the horses mouth so to speak (will post tomorrow as email is at work).

The Dyno will not be available on BBQ nights. This is due to noise restrictions because of our zoning and we have already had a number of complaints from our neighbours when the dyno has been in use after 7pm. I am more than happy to have people come down early and use the dyno before 7pm (bookings required as usual), but this will be charged at the normal rate (club member discount still applies). It should be stressed that the dyno isn’t really the point of the evenings. It is more a social gathering, where people get to hang out and chat as a club, without fear of police presence, and where myself and my staff are available for a chat, allowing us to give advice, informal estimates and generally just get to know each other better.

Mercury Motosports

Unit 2, 278 Newmarket Rd

Wilston QLD 4051

Phone: 1300 558 650

Starting time of 7pm.

See you there! :burnout:

Also, just a reminder to members and others to me mindful of the other residents within the area. DO NOT leave the Mercury Motorsports premises in a loud and undue manner.

With wados in his falcon and you in your soarer, I think I should bring the commodore ;)

Maybe everyone should bring their "other" cars too, so its everything BUT skylines. That would make me amused, if just for the fact Willis will be bringing the cappa (coolest. car. ever.)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
