Hi Everyone

We're conducting a High Performance Training and Track Driving Day at Sandown on Friday 20th June 2008.

We will be running the day as an 'open pit lane' day, but we will also have 4 qualified (Certificate 3 and 4) instructors with lots of experience.

We also provide lunches, tea / coffee / soft drinks, flag marshals and medical / rescue crew.

You do not need a CAMS or ASSA licence to participate in our High Performance Training and Track Driving Days

The format we run to is: 3 groups of 15 drivers, twenty minutes of track time per hour.

Start time is 8.30 am for safety briefing, track is open from 9.00 am until 4.00pm

Cost is only $245.00 per driver.

If you would like to come along please give us a call on 1300 652 693

Kind Regards

Kev

Whats required on this day in terms of helmet, obviously, fire extinguisher, bonnet pins etc?

J,

you need helmet, clothing that covers your whole body, decent shoes (not like boots and stuff), and a car that doesnt leak fluids and one that has good brakes - sandown is a heavy braking circuit, so you need to make sure that brakes are a1. Probably best to take the car for a service a few days before to change brake pads, oil all that - took mine to revzone in ringwood and told them to put the good stuff in.....and the car lasted the whole day. Then check the car by driving it around, check underneath that nothign is lose, and check that all is in working order.

Possibly good tyres as well - can get a bit scary in the wet (but a lot of fun - just go with the instructor for a few laps). Also make sure there is nothing lying around that will fly around in your cabin (eg paper, bottles etc).

Fire extinguisher is not needed, but can come in handy if anything does go wrong.

The point of the day is to learn how to manouver your car aorund the track, get to know the car, and just enjoy - not to actually race

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I was chatting with an ex SAU person who is involved in chooning euros now. He was saying the factory cars like Audi VW etc have something like 2000 tables that the ECU uses for getting everything "just right". Compare that back to any aftermarket ECU, and you'd be hard pressed to surpass 50 lookup tables. Even the Ford Barra engine has a few hundred lookup tables to run it (and they're still working some tables out too!)

      Grab a temp probe, and probe each exhaust inlet runner with it sitting idling. Each one should be pretty darn close to the same temp. If you've got some reading higher or lower than the others, it's likely either air flow isn't equal, or your injectors aren't equal to each other.   The other things to check, is from the wiring changes that were made, were any earth's or grounds moved/changed.   Lastly, for the strut brace issue. It's not perfect, but can you get away with slipping a washer or two under the strut brace to raise it, and it still clean the bonnet? If you can, work out the height you need, that the motor can't torque up into, and get a spacer made for each side.

      That rusty R32 fuel tank is what we found in Clinton's R32. It has since been replaced with a R32 GTR tank and all it took was a bit of ingenuity in building new fuel tank hangers. I cannot believe how simple the R32 fuel level sender is compared to the R33 unit.
