WSID never had any form of written agreement? On what basis was the track being hired out? Whatever rules they felt like making up at the time? What a disgrace. Alot of double standards there. They won't allow sub-11 second cars at private track days, but only allow SS and higher to hire the track with a maximum of 8 vehiclles @$550 each? So if, say, the owner of a (street-registered and driven) sub-11 ET vehicle wants to race then they either (a) must be ANDRA licenced and can only use the track hire with a maximum of 8 cars @$550 each; or ( B) they can attend a Wednesday night street meet. However, they can't attend club private days.

Doesn't seem fair or reasonable to me. The same car can attend a Wednesday night street meet, but cannot attend a private (street) car club meet, but 11.00+ cars can attend both.

Charlie, its not reasonable...its a load of crap...we are brainstorming for ideas on which way we should go.

And yet the quicker cars would need a better prepared track = more costs involved.

WSID don't seem to be making any sense.

Time to get the big guns out and get this PUBLIC facility available to the people that own it - the public.

    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
