what about the Autocross track at Ipswich, right next door to QR? its a smooth dirt racetrack, which is great fun and great for learning car control - although skidpan/LVMA days at Mt Cotton driver training centre would be easier on the paintwork...

anyway, it's a shameless excuse to post a pic...

In other words beeing seen to follow the process until it all goes quiet again.

Just let me get on that council at Pine Rivers. I'll need to blow some wind up but my agenda will be Lakeside.

total driver have done training days there recently but speeds are very limited, and it definitely isn't a track day format, just driver training. at this stage anyway. we'll have to wait and see what happens with the tender process PRSC is running.

I think alot of places put diesel down with the water. Not only does it incur random arse end movements when you thought you had it under control, its also super friendly for your paint. :thumbsup: NOT. They do it to keep speeds down to a super friendly toddler pace.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
