Now we have 11/12 that are very interested some have already paid deposits... now I need deposits from the rest of you people, I WILL be ringing Dave tomorrow to give our final numbers and all those that haven't got deposits done by then WILL miss out as I know that the day is full.

Setup for this day will be 4 groups.

Group A (Fastest/Experienced Drivers)

Group B (Those that have been before but still want a bit more practice)

Group C (The Newbies and the slower cars such as excels and stuff)

Group D has been booked by a group booking.

I had thought that we would put our people as follows.

Group A, Roy, Bonkers, Zane, Oz and Majanal

Group B, Akira, Roys Mate, Nissaners mate and Shunted.

And let Prank, Carlo and Nissaner make up there own mind in which group they would like to be part of.

I believe that Duncan might be around to help out with a few tips to help people drive a bit slower and to try and convince them that cheater tyres is the way to go!

Cheers,

Dan.

!

just paid $50 for my friend...

Thanks for that Jon - you are a true Gentleman :)

Dan, you forgot Group F - reserved for the Fatz/B-Man 8 sec corolla project - and that's on the gravel track around the outside of EC - I think 1:55's are on the cards. :)

Oh, well one day I'll be able to run my car are EC - Looks like Pete & I are on BBQ & Beer duty (Oh, no alcohol at EC, I remember.......) :)

my friend was running in group b last year with his s15... so should be able to do group b with his type r without problem :) (i'll let him know anyway coz seeing as he came 5th overall in honda wakefield track day he might like to run in group a... ) i've always run in group c (twice actually.. only been to 2 ec track days..) but might try b this time... :)

John,

I was thinking that Prank, Carlo and yourself could decide if you want to run in A or B, C will be pretty slow this time due to D being book for a private group. You Guys will be WAY to fast for group C.

I think under 2 min for Group A, under 2.10 for group B is about right. If you don't know, or haven't been out there before, take group C with fatz, you can always move up later.

*** it the pimp wagon is in

    • You ask for things. You specifically state you want responsiveness. A link was provided for a far superior, more responsive option. Find a MX5 workshop that will install it for you. Maybe MX5 Mania will throw on the Fab9 kit. It seems they want to charge almost 14K installed for their kit, so if they charge you $6K to install the FAB9 kit then you'll be ahead? Though really, the 2.5 with a 2860 running low boost will more or less feel as good as anything else. It's a lot of displacement and a small turbo. Think of a more modern RB26 with one stock turbo :p TBH, truth be told I've been driving my own car, and use about 50% throttle at most for 99.9% of the time. Mr Bogan is likely similar so this is all going to be semantics for the use case he actually has. (He'll be happy with anything relative to now) However, the EFR is hands down far superior in this use case. You really, really, really, really do notice it over the Garrett or equivalent.  
    • You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap
    • Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy 
    • Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.
    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
