Nice work Russell & Ryan!

Hoped I would do better than 20th but that's a big improvement over 26th last time. I need to work on my wangs :(

List of excuses:

-Tyres scrubbing guards on every turn :(

-Fat passenger :banana:

-I'm a pussy with my daily driver :P

Damn, I thought I'd do a lot better than that. Those WD (and spinning out) really kill you!

Goes to show thought that you can do quite well without a huge amount of power. I managed better than decent times here and there, just lack the conistency! Guess that comes with driving skill and experience.

You're right about being more aggressive though, on my last mini wang run I went all out and managed a good time, and I know I wasn't at the car limits - just mine. :banana:

Yep, unless you got issues with your car it's almost all driver for these events. Agree totally, it's cool that with these results you can see where you did really well and know that if you were consistent in doing that everytime then you'd do much better overall.

595s are shit.

Go Hankook S1 EVOs or Conti SportContactIIs or the Kumhos Russell runs. 245s are plenty too.

RE001's are in the same area and price range as well for another option.

When i picked mine up they were the same price as the EVO's actually.

I think that's changed now though

Thanks but if "NA challenge" means normally aspirated the Lancer doesnt fit that bill.

it's basically an rb18det but is in the 2WD class for sure specifically FWD :thumbsup: understeer come on down.

go Russman! and also well done to the Clive in the Lancer for taking out the highly contested "NA challenge"..

    • You can try capping the power steering idle up valve at both ends if it's old. The valve and the intake manifold. That is something that is known to fail in Toyotas with age and it will suck power steering fluid into the intake and burn it in the engine which can cause issues. Then bleed it again with engine off first. Do like 30+ lock to lock turns with the front wheels off the ground.
    • Hi Brent, I am wondering if you ever worked this out? I have upgraded this unit to a newer one and everything works bar the reverse camera, so i really want to know what plugs are what so I can patch the camera through. many thanks in advance Mike
    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
    • Yeah, the plan is to just put some black rubber vacuum line caps over them to "hide" them a bit I don't want to trim them in cause I need to put the OEM box back on at some stage
