The greater Sydney area really needs a racetrack with a few loooong straights and big, open, sweeping corners so the mega HP cars can really stick it to the 'light atmo car' boys....Fatz :pwned::(

:D

Get cracking on it then :)

Yogi,

Im not sure, he id run one about 3 months ago, but he lost $5-8K so I dont know how many more he will be running. I dont think he has booked any more days at this stage. I guess if he does not get enough support for these events moving forward he will have to stop running them AKA Moto concepts.

Just wondering guys, down the back straight will I be hitting 180+?

I've got my speed limiter still on but I don't want it affecting my times.

My car is a 190rwkw gtst. :mrt:

definately not! there is no back straight at OP. well there is a short one between turns 3 and 4 but you will be lucky to hit 120 there.

depends how good your entry is onto the pit straight as to whether or not you hit 180. plus in my experience mostly the limiters wont cut in until an indicated 190-195. i wouldnt worry about it mate. it should be the least concern if this is your first track day.

He will worry about if its his first track day... You will be hitting about 180 right when you need to hit the first kink/turn and if your not expecting to hit the rev limiter you can shit your pants and at that speed you want to aleast be aware of it.

When your times look shit, its also an excellent excuse as to why you times are poor... Just go with the story that you hit the speed limiter half way down the straight and that you should be 3-4 seconds quicker :P

yeah true, but i dont know that an auto 33 will even hit 180, and being first time out he will be hard on the brakes bro! on the brakes! at the kink :P

good point though, just be aware of it wink, but dont let it stop you.

    • Yeah. Will f**k a tight nut. Will possibly f**k a non-tight nut, if accidentally put on too off-centre. Otherwise... I've always been tempted to buy one to see how good they are. Thing is....I have all the other sockets, spanners, etc. So, unless I was trying to build a 1 socket kit.... see little point.
    • Donut tried them out, they were fine as long as the bolt or nut wasn’t very tight 
    • It is a very complicated plastic tank. Sitting between the rear seats and the rear subframe. Requires a siphon venturi pump in the hat to suck the fuel from the passenger side to the driver side of the tank. The answer is probably prepping the tank very carefully to eliminate all fuel fumes, drilling any cracks to stop propagation, then plastic weld. I don't really see any other solution here. 
    • Does anyone know when your oil drops viscosity, if it is an issue? I imagine with tuned cars they will be overfueling more compared to a stock standard car and will thin out over time. 
    • anyone ever used these ? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/186214260439?_skw=socket+set&itmmeta=01JEG3TKV388ZXGP8N7CHNCQ45&hash=item2b5b3c1ed7:g:mhAAAOSwwB9lf~Xm&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKkJwJeiNMm%2FsStacz%2BhjzBowaFnbNCowwe08vVGrW0FbesCs%2Flw%2FQYjDQLjKsuKvgysWT9%2F4b9AZUX3qLP5RDfFhtD8DxufvqBbyZrQAQXuG3h8%2BxxqhWhH8fIfU84eA9W7VIpxDNw9MWj9BdfkkMasYhcqOjTrcKwLyD3ftzZbaZb2Us7%2FFR1Q2kcT68ZYRU77%2F%2BtRr1qBS27BXxh%2FjWBQxhWyUcLlEFIb%2BITZPIKwxQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABlBMUOy96oP0ZA   I believe the idea being, the rods push back around the shape of whatever nut you put in there. Sounds pretty handy to just need to carry 1x socket in the car for 'most sizes'  but, theory vs reality, anyone tried them?
