Another reason it happens around the dandenong area i would think is cause its so far away from calder. I have heard of the huge laverton drags and that. But they are closer to calder park. So really they should just go there.

But who can be stuffed going through city link all the time.

the place i work at now in dandy probly has a 2 kilometre straight road.

Where australia post is. Follow progress street for reference. Its pretty new, but its bound for some late night time trials, although only one exit. bummer. (could even have some drags inside the factories there come to think of it. they are huge.

But yeah, i say give more access to sandown raceway aswell. Night drags just like at calder.

Would get a big turn out i'd say.

ciao

i think if they opened up a new strip somwhere at the back of

deer park or somehwere...

charged 20 buxs entery

and was open 4 days a week

there would be no illigal street racing,,

but steve bracks is a poof and im gonna end up doin demos on

his front lawn again tonite in my 1985 magna

$20 tight asses wouldn't pay, but its getting there in terms of what's needed..

exactly zdenko (hey u said something intelligent? who is using your account??!)... see it just has to be an area that isn't a drag strip..drag strips are for full drag cars, not really street cars.

sanddown would be cool. Really the people who should be (cops and government) just aren't thinking of alternatives, so people will just get bored and street race. Until they come up with something, people will just continue to do so. But of course they make money $165 everytime they canary somebody so sad to say, but that seems to be what they'd prefer to do..

Actually, maybe we should be proactive and write some letters to our local MP's (anonymous of course)... with some intelligent suggestions. You never know, they might just take notice of it.

You'll be surprised what actually standing up and doing something intelligent about it rather than just wingeing about it can do....

It has got me what I have wanted many times. A well worded letter can do wonders if makes somebody at least thing for a moment outside their little box.

The problem is they probably only hear from dickheads about the whole thing which just reinforces their opinions that it should be banned under every circumstance, and more drastic crackdowns should be implemented.

theres no chance they will build another place for cars to race. 2 is enough. My question is what is the $17 which everyone is going to pay on rego going towards. Overseas travel for politicians or what. When you think about it. $17 isn't really that much, but when everyone has to pay it. Its close to $20 million dollars..

I think the problem with the racing meets are the liability insurance which the places have to pay. If they are cahrging shitloads for basketball places, imagine what they'd have to pay for racing events. would be huge.

yer, i know, that is a large part of the problem.. the liabilitity insurance. But why can't they just disclaim all responsibility?? and if people take the risk they do so on their own.

damn fat lawyers.. hate em all.. ****ing american bullshit creeping into our country.. get out .. hate hate!

I am not to sure. The way i see it, is if they say "enter at own risk", then they may not be able to operate, for saftey reasons, and the government will not allow it.

So seeing as the venue is taking on responsibility for what goes on there, they have to have the insurance (i would think). Its not only what happens on the track, spectators are also covered incase of a misshap.

Thats the way world is coming to these days.

    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.  
    • Nice, let me know how you find the 98 tune
