done the math on that? it = a very long day.

it will be at least 1min between each run (assuming a 25 second run and then allowing time to get that car off the air strip).

i'll be generous and say that you;ll have them going every 30 seconds (but obviously there is no chance).

that sees each of the 120 cars getting 1 run per hour....so you'll need to sit around 6 hours to get your 6 runs.

that's without any breakdowns or oil spills or even a crash (hopefully we won't see one of those).

everyone better pack breakfast lunch and dinner if they want their 6 runs or hope a lot of people pull out after their first 1 or 2 runs.

Maths has been done on the timeframes and it all fits with time to spare. Have spoken to a couple of people that have run these events before and the day will be from 9am-5/6pm

Basically each car will run (alocated 33 seconds) and as soon as they are off the strip (onto 2nd strip to wait in groups of 10) the next car will run. Whille the group that has run returns to the pits, the next group will go to the start line. Basically, all cars will be run every 75 minutes. Also, as the day goes on, the groups will get smaller as people have car issues etc etc

The majority of people understand that this will be run over a whole day.

Again, this will be the 1st time i have run an event like this. Yes, there may be teething problems as well. Well, that is motorsport

With the number of classes available for this event (29 in total) and the likelyhood of a fair few of them not having any cars being entered into them (SVA, 1A, 3A...), we are going to have a few other catergories (event specific, nothing to do with CAMS) to spice things and allow people to compete with their mates who may be in other CAMS classes. Additional classes will be based on time, not speed, and some, due to the number of particular Vehicles entered, will be model specific.

So, we have added :

Fastest Commodore (NA)

Fastest Commodore (FI)

Fastest Torana

Fastest Ford (NA)

Fastest Ford (FI)

Fastest Skyline

Fastest Supra

Fastest Rotary

Fastest Euro

Fastest 4WD

Fastest RWD

Fastest FWD

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
