I have heard that holden is harassing the ARC to get its 4wd ute into the ute class. So holden want to run against ford, but want special rules to allow them to run a 4x4 against fords RWD car.

Holden is really farking up australian motorsport. Good thing NZ is so close, I might have to start going over there to get my Motorsport Dosage.

Anyone want to fly me to Race to the sky in april?

Would love to see how those holdens hold up in the JGTC500 or JGTC300... I imagine that a smoking would occur!

I was speaking with Ross Palmer at McPhillamy on Saturday night for over an hour. He said there is "good factory interest" from GT300 teams. GT500 cars are out of the rules, I think.

The Monaro's were built for Bathurst: pure and simple. The lambo won Nations Cup title, and despite the Monaro being within the rules, it wasn't good enough to win the championship. Only one track...

Also stay tuned for 2-4 M3 GTRs running in the 2004 Nations Cup championship, I thought the privateer team did extremely well considering the logistics involved, before Brock shunted Maher into the wall. Funnily, prior to the race Garry Rogers tried to get the M3 GTR banned!

Bok bok bok bokkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk....

I have doubts about a JGTC GT300 car holding up to the Monaro round bathurst. They're great cars but 350 odd hp compteing with the 5 or 600 the Monaro's had (cbf converting 440 odd kw to hp properly atm) is a BIG ask around Bathurst.

p.s. anyone want to do the conversion?? I forget the kw to hp figure.

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
