Really depends on price and whats involved in the package for me......

I am interested, but I'm not driving 2 hours for an hours worth of expensive karting, when I could go 30mins down the road here and race around in a cheap kart.

So yeah, interested, but depends on package details.

speaking out of experience...

Eastern Creek Karts your looking at paying around $170-190 per person for a 3 hour "mini grand prix" session.

on the other hand....

you can go to Fastlane @ Minto [where i held the ns.com go kart day] and it ended up being like $45 per person, for the same sort of event.

I think the general thought of paying the EC price is that for that sort of money you could attend a track day / wsid day etc and use your own car.

everyone had fun, everyone thought it was value for money which was also important!

i think they do max 50 pple at a time there though.

here is the thread if you want any info...

as you can see from the general response everyone enjoyed themselves which i mean for $45 is pretty damn good :P

oh here are some pics also for those who have never seen the track before.

Whats the quality of the Minto Karts/track like though?

I did an SAU Corporate day about 18mths ago and the day was very good. From memory it was 3 heat runs and a final grand prix all with decent karts and the timing system.

Possible interest here.

Im interested in $50,

But certianly not $175

What karts do they have at minto?

2-Stroke racing?

The best karts i have ever been on where on the way to Port Macquarie, they were raching 125cc 2-stroke cars the ones i use to race on and they were awsome...

Have the minto ones got a speed limiter?

Id be keen... just about any evening Mon-Sun.

Minto is crap. Its slow and you do not even need you brakes. $50 is good value but id prefer to spend the $150. (Although the trophy i got from the last corporate day there is pretty good -heheh).

I was going to go to a 4 hour (or was i 6 hour?) enduro at easterncreek with another club last year. Im pretty sure it was $150 each for 4 hours of action. However you had to be in teams of 4 and you divided your time between the 4. Full pits stops, qualifying.

You need a minimum of 30 people.

You also had to pay like $15 for your license (which include 5 minutes in the slower karts). Then you can drive the faster karts on the day.

i am keen on a team enduro session. would be awesome fun, and then you can share the cost amongst a couple of mates (say 3 man or 4 man teams).

Dan tried to organise this last year but everyone said yeah i'll come, then bailed when it was time to pony up the dough.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
