I was there too sitting pretty much next to where they were filming. We thought it was great they were out there filming legal drags, burnouts etc..

Of course they had to turn it into something completely against it...

I drove past all of those cars pulled over and they were less than a kilometre from WSID.. You couldnt even race on those streets as they are only one lane and quite busy once the drags are over. Couldnt really see them doing burnouts around there either but you never know I suppose..

hang on...

so they were at wsid - filming legal stuff, and have turned it around and made it into a bad hoon story again?

wtf?

I wish I could see the vid.

farkin gay media crap shit farkin

hang on...

Nope they were saying WSID = good. But cars speeding while exiting the facility = bad.

Video was made by benm... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=3265470

Yes that's Joe's both car at WSID

im famous!!!!! you can see me getting beaten and see me and my m3 in line a few secs after.

where do i go to get paid?

thanks turdy.

yep thats me and my m3 in that pic above, and in the vid earlier you can see me getting beaten by the green VL.

i catch up and beat him though :rolleyes:

ok maybe not. but i was close.

ok i lied again.

i guess those fools who was speeding right after the event is just asking for it.

I couldnt help but laugh at how sly the cops hiding with speed gun & alerting other hwy patrol to whom to pull over.

Yes its well homo, but come on, who seriously WOULDNT expect there to be cops waiting outside a racetrack.

Next week everyone should take a few donuts in their cars;

Cop: Do you know why i pulled you over son?

You: I was enjoying driving - it makes me happy. Here, have a donut, that should make YOU happy :rolleyes:

/sarcasm

Its ridiculous.. I cant believe people would even attempt to race/speed etc outside the track. they should of paid their $45 and done it legally earlier.

I still cease to believe they pulled 70 cars over for speeding/burnouts etc...

I was pissed off because I thought the footage they were filming was going to be used as a positive in the community for people actually going and doing it legally..

Instead they showed it as a reason for all the hoons to gather in one place and then go stupid after its finished..

I am really pissed at police senior management for this.

There is no better way to push cars back INTO street racing than making the only legal venue, WSID, unsafe (ie don't go, you might get defected afterwards).

Idiots.

    • Hmm... From my experience you get about 0.25° camber change per mm of RUCA length change. So, to correct from -2.5 up to less than -1° (or, more than -1° if you look at the world as a mathematician does) then you'd be making 6-8mm of length change on the RUCA. From a stock length of 308mm, that's 2-2.5% difference in RUCA length. My RUCAs are currently very close to stock length - certainly only 2-3mm different from stock. I had to adjust my tension arms by 6mm to minimise the bump steer. That's 6mm out of 210, which is 2.8%. That's a 2.8% change on those, compared to a <1% change on the RUCAs. So the stock geometry already has worse bump steer than is possible - you can improve it even if you don't change the RUCA length. If you lengthen the RUCAs at all, then you will definitely be adding bump steer. Again, with my car, I recently had an unpleasant amount of bump steer, stemming from a number of things that happened one after another without me having an opportunity to correct for them. I only had to change the tension arm lengths by 1mm to minimise the resulting bump steer. (Granted, I also had to dial out a lot of extra toe-in in the rear, and excessive rear toe-in will make bump steer behaviour worse). Relatively tiny little adjustments having been made - the car is now completely different. Was horrifying how much it wanted to steer from the rear on any significant single wheel bump/dip. And it was even bad on expansion joints on long sweepers on freeway entry/exits, which are notionally hitting both rear wheels at the same time. My point is, the crappy Nissan multilink is quite sensitive to these things (unlike the very nice Toyota suspension!). And I think 99.75% of Skyline owners are blissfully ignorant of what they are driving around on. Sadly, it is a non-trivial exercise to set up to measure and correct bump steer. I am happy to show my rig, which involves nasty chunks of wood bolted to the hub, mirrors, lasers, graph paper targets and other horrors. Just in case anyone wants to see how it is done. I'll just have to set it up to take the photos.
    • What do you have in that bad boy ? Ill go with the 725cc since I'll be going with Nistune ( would definitely like more engine protection but Haltech is too far out of reach at the moment... plus, Ill probably have a pretty safe tune as its a daily, not gonna be chasing peak power 24/7 ahahah ). Are Xspurt a safe choice?  Pete's great. He didnt mention anything about traction arm length so I reckon it may be good. When I get some new wheels/tire later down the road I'll ask him about it and get his opinion on em. I heard from Gary that you've got the bilsteins too, are you running the sway bars too? and what other suspension goodies do you have installed or would recommend?
