Hmm How long before someone turns up in a GT1 Corvette or a Mosler/Ford GT etc and hoses the field, Couldn't dis-allow entry because they would be closer to the stock road car than any of the Pro cars entered this year......

...oh wait Porshe's aren't allowed but Carbon Bodied EVO's with 750hp and Coilovers are........

Maybe I'll win Lotto and turn up in a MacLaren F1 LM Long Tail...get Bridstone to build me a custom tyre with a "treadware rating" of 550 and have a single groove on the outside as my "tread" and win "club" class with a 1:20 flat or something silly

Ok I'm dreaming, but that is pretty much where "time attack" everywhere in the world will end up in 5 years if it keeps going the way that it is

I just don't see why the main rule in open/pro class is no Porsches. I'm not a real Porsche fan (although I do love the itsfun car), the cars are no where near their road going form, so I can't see why they are so scared of some beetles from Germany.

Probably because a GT3 RSR on semis would be quicker than 90% of the field outta the box

are there any semi's out there for a 13" rim?

edit: I just looked at the rules again, and the rule resticting rear engine 6 sylinder cars is gone. I have made a lyer of myself

My car is now ready. Limited power level because of a restrictive intercooler but at least it's racing! Very promising after a test day at sandown on the weekend. The day was mostly wet but already slightly faster than my previous times on old tyres and struggling to get heat into the tyres in a dryer but cold session.

Only really going to get one more days testing at PI and then its time for superlap :)

Here's some pics.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
