Hi the names Rod,For those who are interested the Pittsworth Sprints are on in September 6th and 7th.

I am unsure of the how one goes about entering the competition but I do believe it is open to everyone.

Addmission to the track is $5 and all the proceeds go to the local hospital,so it is going to a good cause.

For those who don't know where Pittsworth is it is approximately 40km South West of Toowoomba.

The town has plenty of pubs and motels as well as a caravan park so accomodation should be plentifull ,I would suggest you pre book accomodation just to be on the safe side.

I have never been to the event myself but from what I have heard it is a real buzz.

Maybe we could get a few interested in going and make it a cruise to Pittsworth and a cruise back.

Your thoughts on the idea.

Hi Slip if you ring the local council in Pittsworth and speak to someone in regards to the track,or they may be able to put you on to someone who can tell you a bit about it.

I actually went up there for a drive yesterday but was not to sure what constituted the track,but the road we thought might be track wasn't to bad.

I have been told they are timed events so you are actually racing against the clock.

The number is 0746932455

Hi guys pittsworth is just down the road from me and i attended the sprints last year. That track is basically, what you would expect from local street and cordoned off. There were quite a few imports last year and a 33GTR holds the lap record.

I will be spectating this year, hope to see some of you there.

    • It just occurred to me. The way I am asking for increasing bite as I slow down (ie more bite the more time on the brakes), that is actually sounding like less initial bite, and hence the bite would feel to increase.

    • Actually I need to book the V37 for a test day, who is running it? And yeah just let me know if you are down night before or after and we can kill some beers That is my super power
    • Sorry, I must've not been clear enough. On my 350GT, the pads originally on the car created dust to high heaven, and did not squeal at any time. I got new low dust pads, that created absolutely NO visible dust, that squealed when cold.  It wasn't  the initial bite, so much as an increase in braking, without extra brake pedal pressure, during a single brake instance. I had to lift off a little as my speed decreased to zero. Loved it! Now on my 370GT, I have to press a little harder as I approach zero. Not hard, just harder. I am too lazy and live in a city block with no room or tools to do it myself, so I would be paying someone to do the switch I looked at the three offerings by Intima, and one of them had a Features line that caught my eye. "Strong initial bite with continual rising coefficient". The problem is that this is on their "Trackday, Time Attack, Sprint" pads, not their day-to-day pads. Its possible that JAX installed track day pads on my 350GT, I just don't know. But I was pretty clear I did not track the car and drove the streets pretty gently. https://intimabrakes.com.au/home-corporate/intima-rr/ I'll send them an email and also check if other pads purport that behaviour.
