Hi Guys,

I have been talking with some guys and the idea of an AWD shoot out at a track day next year came up for a bit of fun. The idea will be to run the first half of the day as a normal track day and the second half as the AWD event. I am thinking of my March 28 date so everyone has time to prepare. I want to run a few themed days next year for fun.

The current question is 1: Are you guys interested, and 2: What class structure should we use?

So far the ideas around a A) Street Tyre B) Semi Slick grouping with a possible split on Streetable and Hardcore.

Please put up your ideas and comments.

Paul

PS: I want to also have themed days for the RWD guys. I just thought I'd get the ball rolling with this one.

The date that lakeside comes on line is not firm yet, so I think I will plan this one for Qld Raceway.

I need to gauge the interest as well to see if it will have the numbers. If anyone else is keen or has any comments please put them down.

I was hoping you would say that Peter.

I have almost finished putting the event togther. I am going to make it team based with two catagories:

1. Street - street tyred car.

2. Race - Semi slick tyres.

There will be several events to earn points from.

I will put up full details shortly.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
