  1. tried to create an account couple of days ago, never received new account confirmation email, gave them a poke, we'll see? BTW Did the championship table get ratified?
  2. if that was me, would be more like 2015 rather than next weekend
  3. And I'm working Saturdays till mid Nov
  4. Pretty easy with Racechrono on android (Nokia app would only extract data from full laps), later android app exports the whole dataset so you've got the 0kph data take off point to match with take off movement on the videos, then just trim the boring stuff away - this last point is subjective, if I'm too aggressive, I'm left with no video :-)
  5. Totally concur, with technology available why leave it to driver to judge lift when they know it leaves opportunity for another driver to lift less and catch them up, get them to select a flag mode. Obviously bit more complex than pit lane, possible multi flag sections require differing limits with transitions etc but they do have enough IQ & $s between them to work it out. And Micky, put simply, you aquaplane because you exceed the rate the tyre can clear water - speed is definitely a variable
  6. it was more a case of fed up with changing wheels again - does sound like he'll make the effort if he runs them again. Dave, when I get a chance, will load up data and give you a shout.
  7. Good to see everyone having fun, loving the commitment shown, squealing tyres and love Dave's AO50s hum - reminds me of flying scenes in WW2 films. I love this place, was running lower boost to avoid overheating issues but Nick from Lux Racing advised on anti dive improvements which are in the right direction as way more confident on turn in, hence big PB improvement.
  8. That's why I put 'understand things change' who was it BTW
  9. Understand things change but at the prior round there was mention of the last round being at an outdoor venue with undulations - or was I off with the fairies. I'm just putting a mental note of the tracks I've been to/would like to go to, so interested if there was another public accessible outdoor venue
  10. Should now be a go, rang at lunchtime and they were just ringing up Nissan sourcing a gasket I'd forgotten to give them - so I popped it round over lunch. You don't seem to be able to pre-book When you get there you ring PI client services mobile (PM'd by the way) they'll walk around unlock and request the $176 per day payment.
  11. Bit quiet with a few days to go till final round. If I wimp out under the pressure, may be asking round for a lift down.
  12. Looking forward to a more social turn out for the final round. Sorry Justin for not saying hi, had one of those days. The night before resulted in arriving at 8:30, came in nursing coolant issues but the cat flange bolt disappeared resulting in a trip to Bunnings, strain on the exhaust had stressed the dump pipe mount and losing those studs ended the day.
  13. Car Class, good point. I know we run under our SAU classification specified in the 2014 championship thread but to assist in people populating CAMS entry car details. We run under the sprint days, so you'll find the PI supp regs classes within the "Group 5 Sprint Class"
  14. Used it, first time is only a little bit more of effort than a normal event entry but you reuse for next event. if you can be bothered, there are long winded instructional videos.
  15. I've entered. The CAMS entry looks like being useful, no more writing down details every time. Certainly a step up from scanning PDFs then emailing or worse, posting them.
  16. Sau Vic 2014 Motorsport Championship Final Round (95DB) - Hosted by PIARC Entry $250 including timing, $210 if you enter before 18th Sept.

  17. Cheers, understand the nature of this year and everyone is doing it on their own time, maybe less public forum/facebook options, just committee confer behind closed doors and publish agreed schedule. If as you seem to be saying, this isn't a round - I suggest the committee clearly update this thread with cancelled and remove it from the front pages of the 2014 MS calendar thread. Also we were talking about the proposed final round tonight. The PIARC entries are already open and the price goes up within a week - so if that is to be the final round, it needs to be advertised now so that people have a chance to plan and enter at the cheaper price of $210 versus $250. Not trying to step on toes, just have a busy life, I generally have to move things around to attend events and lets not forget, prior I also have to schedule time to work/prep the car.
  18. Think my son will like a pizza :-)
  19. Feel free to lock/delete if required, think I may just check in on Jan2015 to see which ended up being rounds. For 2015, think I'll just go back to cherry picking fun events, kind of over this championship malarkey :-)
  20. According to 2014 champ thread it is, see bottom page 23 post by Richo, wish front page would get updated. I thought to put this up so we don't get to the day not knowing if in or out. My understanding the in/out PI round from July and late notice tampered days are in but we now get to drop two rounds from championship. Going forwards looks like they are have two rounds on subsequent weekends. Really want this all clarified on front page of 2014 Champ thread. Currently need to install new radiator and can't import a koyo for Calder could do a generic +50mm alu alloy one though. As for Calder $200, agree.

  22. So both 26Jul PI & 30Aug Winton and going forwards, you are saying the last two rounds of the championship are in subsequent weekends? 20th Sept Calder 28th Sept PI
  23. I've seen posts indicating Calder has been dropped while PIARC round brought in, any chance to get the front page updated to clarify current plan. Might also want to clarify if prior PI/Winton were a select round
