Hey Guys, I had some new people in the timing room and they made some errors during the day so I had to delete any lap times that looked suspect. After about 8 sessions the timers had it all sorted and the data was spot on.

If you had a time on the day and it didn't turn up on your sheet it is probably because it was bogus.

For example, Willo you did 1:05, 1:09, 1:11, 1:11 then the 1:05 was deleted as it was most likely a mistake. Unless there was overtaking or spin outs you don't usually run one lap 5 seconds faster than all your others.

Sorry if this has wiped anyone's best lap but I had to train up some new timers as I was sick of being stuck in the timing room for the whole track day.

Looks like EvoCam's Evo VIII is showing up some more highly prized competition...

Not bad for stock suspension either...

And how the f@ck is a Lyland P76 almost as quick at an EVO...

Hey thanks Bob....

re the P76 & the Evo, the Evo was a 9 with a first time driver (female - not that that means anything), her hubby got in the car later that day & was faster than my mate with the other Evo 9 on the Clubman track!!

Cheers Cam

That dude in the P76 is the same guy who used to run up front in the Atmo dark green Silvia. He loves to build an unlikely car and flog everyone in it. That was the first shake down run of the P76 so expect a lot more to come. I think it runs a lexus V8.

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
