Hell Fire, PM sent, I'm counting you as in!

Kind words Geoff! thanks mate. As for the car wash, its true to the best of my knowledge. Mark the instructors daughter is one of the kids goin! Its a great thing to go to somebodies home and help them out. The least i can do is support their personal convictions and let them help where they can! (I'm not always mean!) lol

There is 2 weddings on my skid day! Lost half my regular skidders. man i hope it rains like cats and dogs! Aaaaaarrggggghh hahaha ha haha...!

Skids in the wet are good, but you already supply that mate.

Anyone reading this, get your butts out there and enjoy your cars instead of cruising looking for someone to drag. Street racing is for tools.

well, there are cars with 4 wheels and engines which turn tyres! lol

Too be honest, the list has changed so much in the last 72 hours, I dont actually know for sure.. But it appears (unless I screwed up!) all the spots are taken and it is generally an import car day..?

Not much help, so just wait at the gate and see what rolls up i guess!

Well, if it does rain.. GOOD! The skid pan becomes like glass and is megga slippery, even better if it rains after we have been there for a while and got into the groove a bit..

As for getting dirty, umm, no. Its a lot cleaner after and during the rain. Cos most of the time the water is from the creek, only in droughts is town water used. Keeps the costs down, and the greenies are a little happier...

If it rains, and you dont come.. well.. more skid time for me!

There is grass and dirt off the sides of the skid pan.. but that is not the primary cause of the dirt.

Like I said, its because of the creek water. Go have a look inside the tank! I have aslo been to the skid pan a few times myself..

Even after a small flood, the skid pan isn't overly dirty! If you are keen to get rid of the dirt, I'm sure 'RoadCraft' will be happy to let you solve the problem and add more concrete around the outside.. Then we all get to play on a bigger area!

Anyway, I dont care about the dirt very much, thats why I invite the youth group kids to do the car wash!

What a great day out! I had a slipping clutch (different story!), some others suffered some serious slipping wheels and others just slipped down the leader board!

Perhaps your reading is not so good, squire.

So, I will spell it out for you...

My name starts with a capital, thats a bigger letter.

So it looks like this-

Aaron

Understand? Yea?

As for your statement, YES. Was a great day, once you gagged your 180.

      RB26 Block Filler rigidity/deflection test

      By Triple OG · Posted

      I had some time over the last week  and decided to test if block filler will hold the blocks shape similar to a torque plate after the head has been removed. 1, 3 and 5 were measured at 9 points each before and after. MY goal was to see how much impact a torque plate has on the shape of the bore. The first set of measurements were taken with the main girdle and head off with no filler. The block was then filled with grout up to the water pump (half fill) and the girdle and head were torqued to spec. The block sat leveled for 7 days and was disassembled. The second set of measurements were then taken. Results are presented as the delta between the original and new value. All values in the PowerPoint are presented in inches because America. The largest changes were 0.0035 in or 0.0889 mm between cylinders 3 and 5. There may have been even greater changes if the block was filled to the top with grout. I hope this information is useful and I'm curious to hear what you guys think.       Notes: My block had the most wear in cylinders 3 and 4. Due to the amount of change in 3, I measured 2, 4 and 6 separately. 4 was also all over the place. 6 was similar to 1. They were not included to keep the test objective.

      I also find it hilarious, everyone thinks chop idle tunes sound cool, and they do... Because they sound like an angry rotary engine idling.
