Duncan

I couldn't afford the Earls catalogue let alone their bits. putting them all over the engine bay could cost $1000. I use proflow or stock stuff

mebbe....who has info on this??? why aren't we talking about it? I would prefer not to have to head to tassie to race. its expensive and the people there are scarey. like tim and ben

bump.....wrapped up GOOD!

almost time to lock the OP times unless there are people even slacker than me!

hey that's what I was doing for about 5 years until I tore off and destroyed my exhaust 2 weeks ago

2 things. 1 pete is back to civilisation from NZ 2 PWR stands for probably wrong radiator

Yeah when I got my C3 in the old days I had to do a day's flagging...which I thought was a great idea. Never been required for L2S AFAIK. Given the issues getting volunteer flag marshals for race events, it is very likely all drivers will be required to flag once a year to maintain race licenses....no doubt whincup et al will be exempted because they are too important to support voluntary racing but otherwise its a good idea

on flat ground open the radiator cap (when cold). cut a 1.25l drink bottle's bottom off, and fill with electrical tape so that it is a snug fit in the radiator cap mounting. undo bleed screw fill bottle with water, watch water flow out bleeder. otherwise.....you might be right

this thread can't die yet! Paul, Pete and Mark would remember this day....and where is Toulia these days? skyline ran out of tyres so I had to grab the "t-car" for the race. my race car debuted at oran park, the day after I got it from the boat. and thus began my long romance with engine rebuilds Kel did her first standing start race there....and dished out chop chop on scott! Marks car at OP (RIP, the car and the track but not the bloke) from absolute years ago......proof my car even without a rear windscreen is quicker than john's z day night race meets....I did 2 of them there, they were the best races I ever did. recently zooming at suttons even the march got to run there before it was too late I only ever hit the scenery there once, took a mirror off the daewoo on the milk sign. I had some decent crashes there back in the woo days but they were all car on car. actually here is one of them - I tried to get thru turn 1 flat 2 wide (fail) lap 1, then on the next lap after the safety car I got thru turn 1 flat but the car in front did not. http://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/woocrash.wmv. Not my best crash there, the best one was when I managed to hit 3 sides of the same car in a single crash at the last turn. I've got a funny vid or 2 to come but need to rip in from dv first....

I reckon its time we gave the super march a run....might have the big turbo on it by then too

what tyres will you be running on? what does the car weigh? what power does it make? what size sway bars front and rear? what spring rates front and rear? what's the purpose, superlap or an enduro race?

yeah that's what they go for....much more than they are worth IMHO

oh this is turning into a funny afternoon. I would black flag and disqualify salmon for ignoring safety car orders.

lol too slow duncan...they've been leading all day but got taken just before the yellow flags apparently

yes....but only because officals don't enforce the rules and because drivers and teams choose to ignore safety. they are spot on about bringing back double waved (saying where the major incident is) but that doesn't take away the driver's ultimate responsibility for safety.

no shit, that evo's boot wing is higher than it's roof now. gald they are both OK

I hate seeing that sort of thing - what the hell was herridge doing? yellow flags everywhere and he still drives into the rear of a stranded car at full pace. people have to take yellow flags seriously, they are not a chance to catch up they are a safety warning

lol that will slow em down

Live streaming here, its pretty good! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bathurst-12-hour Also natsoft has results here, updated every few minutes http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....2/2010.MOUN.R14 as usual in prod car racing these days, there are evos everywhere.

looks like you have a fun weekend ahead - I hope they let you get enough track time, they have a habit of happily cuttting support class time to allow more important things like grid walks and 1 car at a time qualifying. probably not such an issue over there because I guess there are less categories than usual

your biggest issue with fitting the brembos on an r33 gtst is that they will make f**k all difference. the gtst has pretty good brakes standard. the brembos are pretty small for an upgrade. they are a very bad choice $$$ for buck. either work on your standard setup (lines, good fluid, good pads) or go for something much better like the g4/d2/ksport 8 piston gear

yes and remember that rb20 or rb25 afms still max out at the same airflow...they just have larger cross section. you need to decide which problem you are trying to solve - restriction (get rb25 or rb20 ones) or outside the resolution/over 5v (get z32 or nismo ones)

mine makes over 300 (just) on 550s.

I love watching CNC machines work. But the real question is....what is the retail on a billet ally helmet, and how does it protect compared to a standard helmet

ahh well...its not like its a surprise that it wouldn't be around for ever. This is exaclty why I entered the last race meet even thought hte car was not 100%...I just was not willing to miss the last chance to drive on the best track in NSW.
