Troy,,,I've done a late 39 there,,,so a high 37 or a late 38 would be my limit. As usual it's all about money. I'm almost always on used tyres and this time with a shit motor. That said I don't really care,,,I had a ball. If early 40's are where I'm at then thats cool as well.

Evil,,,I'll never ever get my head around why you guys are not doing the state rounds,,,remember I'll be doing the day/nighter. I was the quickest in the dark last time.

Ben,,,I wish,,,I don't have auto blip,,,I only have no lift shift up through the box.

was a fantastic day. Went down to watch my younger brothers race their Bronze EG Civic (class 3b?).

Was an awesome spectacle to see the Advan GTR go round the track!

it's a cool car mate. and very quick. to be honest I was surprised he runs with no cage or any safety gear. I know that half the reason it's quick is weight, but even a decent half cage would be a good idea for a car doing 46s. no point giving up safety just to save a bit of weight. great car though, I could see myself in one for sure. :P

Some really quick cars!

Were the Radical SR8's ignition problems sorted? The owner is still getting familiar with the car hence the current times. The 1:28 was done by Garth Waldron when the car was having ignition issues ie missing at various points throughout the rev range. It should still go quicker. The same car did a 56 lap of Wakefield with the same issues!!

So is the Radical running the same V2.4L V8 engine as used in the Caterham Levante? Is it supercharged? Was reading about an Exige buildup using the RST Performance V8. Look like killer engines that weight less then 90kgs for 500hp! Or is it running the Radical V8 that is made from Hayabusa heads? I understand the Radical V8 is fair bit more expensive then the RST V8

yeah it's 2 X hyabusa type thing. similar to the hartley V8 ( http://www.h1v8.com/page/page/1562068.htm ) and I think a couple others that now have a V8 using 2 hyabusa heads. and it's NA. still I would guess at least 400hp and probably as much as 500hp even NA and the car couldn't be more than 400kg. not a bad power to weight ratio!

The Radical SR8 is 380hp and 600kgs from memory. Yes it is based on 2 Hayabusa engines. Relatively inexpensive too, considering the times it is running...

That link above is I believe where he bought it from.

Sorry Duncan- I should have introduced myself. I was the chick chatting to Mark Berry on the grid at the start of the day when you stopped by to chat. Great driving - I've got some (what I think are!) good pics somewhere. Will find and send through.

      Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.

      Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).

      Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?

      You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
