in yankee land they are quoteing 8,000hp these days.

Ive got a friend of the family who started out pitting for bob sheppard then went to santo's,and now since the falling out in the team he has been asked to pit for rachelle splatt.

i liked the form of morgan and reid.Reids car sounded great.Especially was impresed with jay upton.

Yeah I have crewed for some Dorrslammer teams here and some Alcohol dragster teams-good fun. Got a mate who does the clutch for Cory Mac in the states and I was lucky enough to hang with those guys in 2004 for a month. The scene over there is nuts-24 Top fuelers trying to get into a 16 car field-if you run a 4.7 you prob wont qualify-WTF I remember when saw Force run 331mph in a funny car at Pomona-totally nuts :O

      Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.

      Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      For me at least the reason why it bothers me is because it's indicative of a deeper problem. And that will nag at me forever. Especially because I have tailpipe emissions testing + evap leak testing every 2 years.

      WELP. I went to the track, and I suppose it went okay because any time you can drive home is okay. You may notice the car is not on the circuit in this picture. It was about 35C day out in Benalla which means the track was approximately the surface of the sun, probably. Good things, car did not overheat but it _was_ warmer than when I had done track days in similar heat before, I think, I'm not sure - I can't quite remember. Coolant got to ~105 via the ECU after 20-30 minutes of belting it in said heat. Oil got up to 145C in one instance which is pretty crazy due to oil cooler. Pressures were fine. I seem to remember this not getting quite so high before the vents. More HMMMM'ing to be done. On the subject of HMMM'ing, can anyone identify the sounds in the video below, you will know which ones I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj3BkI2cbTc I included some 'normal' sound as a reference for the first minute or so. The microphone in this instance was where the license plate is. It stopped working later in the day which is why my "best example of a lap video (not produced)" had internal audio - Isn't hearable from inside the car. I don't mean the chirping of the un-bedded/badly bedded track brakes which you can only hear while braking... Thoughts, brains trust?
