that's funny cause fatz tried to get into one from the 1st floor balcony, but he just landed in the bushes....

What a massive day at private practice today at Oran GP. There were over 30 cars.

Cars from every class at Superlap were there.

Saturday private practice is going to be out of control :D

Sunday is going to be massive!!

Crikey you guys are nice. :woot:

I was a little sorry not to be doing Superlap this year but after reading that lot it's obvious we are not welcome. Good luck to all competing.

BTW you really should get all you facts straight before making comments you may later regret.

Based on the comments of some of the other lotus guys, do you blame them?

I'm sorry? Read what he actually wrote and tell me where he is wrong? We never entered our car or expressed any interest in running yet we were shown on the list. Not our fault. The yellow car was destroyed in a serious accident at Phillip Island last year so obviously it can't run.

The oil you can see on the track in from the BSM Skyline the race before.

UM maybe you should edit your post to say "Maybe some of the oil might have been from the BSM car".

Sunday was an oil-fest,,,almost every class oiled the track up.

Nice win though,,,Congrats to Tim.

Neil.

David,,,please don't think that everybody here hates the Lotus's. I don't and I think they add major spice to superlap.

Ha Ha superkarts,,,whats worse oil or glycol?. They should stop calling superkarts to the dummy grid,,,they should call all lunatics without seatbelts to the dummy grid!!!.

Neil.

Yeah, Sorry about that Lofty. I was told by one of the grid marshals that you dropped the oil, or at least some of it. I just read on the other thread that you in fact spun on the oil and didn't drop it. Sorry about that and I hope they get the car sorted in time for Superlap.

I dont think anybody here hates Lotus. What they do hate is pretentious condescending arseholes Logging in to a skyline forum for the express purpose of throwing shit and then taking the bolt.

If same arsehole is going to take cheap shots at our "datto's" what does he expect. Did he seriously think we would all kiss his magnificent sacred arse, not likely. A few disparaging remarks as to his parentage and A gentle reminder of the Incredible giant killing all conquering leyland engine lurking beneath the bonnet of the mighty loty was about as kind as it was going to get. :D

That's very nicely put Mr Fineline.

If anyone was offended by the afforementioned pretentious condescending arsehole, then i unresevedly apologise. That was not the intention at all.

The post was really as result of reading many pages of anti-Lotus sentiment. There were many un-truths being posted. The "other side of the story" was missing.

Anyway, we've all said our bit. Again, i'm sorry for any disparaging remarks i may have made. I know quite a few on this forum personally, and certainly don't wish to sour relationships.

It did make for a few days of entertainment. :D

I hope y'all have a great day at OP.

Tim.

    • Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.
    • I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.
    • For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.
    • I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.
    • Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
