So is that gospel then? have run a 11.92 previously, hoping to run quicker this time.

Do i need to hook up something or will it get through scrutineering ok?

I wouldnt be to worried about it. Normally at these events you self scrutineer your car anyway. I would just throw a blue triangle on the car just so they know where the islation switch is. I have run an 11.0 and i am meant to have a lot more safety gear in the car than i do have and they have never said anything to me about it. I would be more concerned about an ANDRA licence than the isolation switch. You do have an ANDRA licence dont you? They can probably be purchased on the day but its quite a bit more expensive doing it that way. If you plan on continuing to race the car it would be much cheaper to buy a yearly licence

Bank transfer done.

Emailed entry form.

We may finally have that race Brad (ido09s) :thumbsup:

Oh sweet. Will be good to catch up mate and have that long awaited race :nyaanyaa: How did your car go on E85? Did you make much more power? Ours went backwards according to the rollers hehe

Given the event is only a week away and there is only around 30 competitors.... is it going to go ahead or not? Unless the club makes up for the shortfall in costs i thought that WSID had a minimum of 40 cars, max of 50, for these private hires.

IDO09S, Aaron (1320ft) has made himself available to be there on the day and can issue the ANDRA licences. I am sure he will post in here to answer any questions.

As usual, I wouldn't be surprised if there were a number of last-minute entries and SAU reached the minimum 40 entries. The track day is booked and it's going ahead...unless the track isn't ready :unsure:

Awesome about Aaron being there :rolleyes: Aaron is pretty fair with running the joint from an ANDRA perspective

I am with you on the track conditions..... have they had a street meet yet to get some rubber down? We might be the first to christen the new surface, which i wont be happy about to be honest :( The new management is doing an awesome job with the place though. Its come ahead in leaps and bounds since the departure of Jim Read

Hey fellas, I don't know if WSID will let us run our GoPro's but I have the three for the club up for rent. Is $35 paid on the day. That includes me making DVD copy of the video files and mailing them to you about a week after the event.

PM me for reserving one. First in, best dressed.

I ran mine inside the car and have had no problems.. I Dont think outside the car is allowed..

Entries will be updated shortly, we are closing in on the 40 entrants :)

I always have my gopro hanging from the sunroof inside the car and they havent pulled me up on it so far.

I would like to try it outside the car this time so lets see what they say.

Cars use them on the outside all the time so i doubt they will have any problems with it.

The new management seems to be a bit more laid back than the old management which is good to see as they were pretty hard assed on trivial things previously

Thats fine, Matt is being paid to cover the event and the agreement I made with him is that he's the only one who will get a Media pass on the day but around the pits or from the stands is no drama.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
