  1. The main thing I'd be looking at is the variation between cylinders. If you've changed cams and cam timing then the reading are going to change, and sometimes drastically. The variation will tell you if one cylinder has done a ring land or has a bad bore etc. The only time this doesn't apply is when you've blown all the ring lands or fried all the rings, but this will be evident in other ways!
  2. We could allways race gen 3 V8 holdens. It would be like Bathurst, only half the field would still be running at the end of the day :jump:
  3. For starters there no way I'm challenging Duncan in a Lanos, that'd be like telling schumaker he drives his ferrari slower than my Granma! What about smart cars :Oops: At least the racing would be close. It would come down to who can push fastest
  4. Duncan: 3rd gear just means I need to hit the handbrake earlier and carry more speed into the corner otherwise I bog down on exit and the car straightens out! fatz: If borrowing a friends car is instantly worth 10km/h, then I ought to take a hire car for the day. I could blow straight past the 1:10 barrier and aim for some 1:08's! Not to mention that if we all got the same stock rentals we could have an awesome control class! Any takers?!
  5. Duncan: You talking car speed or wheel speed! If you looked at my wheel speed on entry to turn 2 compared to on exit you'd think I had 1000rwkw :flower: Unofficialy I've run about 1:13 when folowing Daz around, but I wasn't happy with the pads I was running at the time and hope to go quicker on the 1/11. I've also got some half decent road rubber to use this time compared to the junk I was running last time.
  6. Looks like Canberra might be getting a strip too! The newly elected Chief Minister of the ACT was on the radio this morning saying that it would be operational within 18 months. If only he wasn't a politician I might take that as definate!
