The Shannons Insurance Skyline Nationals 2012 - Goulburn And Wakefield Park


Recommended Posts

Seeing as there were so many noob's on the track I was glad that Bec was tough on the behaviour. Sets a good precedence for their next track day :)

It's so nice to be able to drive home from the track, in the car you drove there in. And makes for a lot less paperwork :D

No flames or tank slapping photos sorry, big thanks to the R31 Skylines club for some great pics of the weekend.

Lotsa pics and vid can be found here > http://forum.r31skyl...topic=154303.30

The R35 tried to be exciting going into turn 1 on the grass inside the HR31 ... Wakefield staff didn't seem to appreciate the excitement either, I thought it was most entertaining :D

I wasn’t planning on finding the grass at 210kph that is what happens when another driver does not see you going up the inside of them and moves over on you. Just got a bit sideways and went on the grass to avoid an accident. All was ok the other driver did apologise after that, they did not predict the R35 gains so much down the straight and didn’t think I would be there at that time. Did make for an exciting ride and entry into turn 2 trying to pull it up.

More photos of the day would be good to see....

I believe it happened twice to you, the other time it was me coming out, they said go and I did, I then got on the brakes hard as soon as I saw you coming.

I think it was a 35, I was kind of focused on staying as far left as I could and clutching my seat with my arse cheeks.

Artz, just think of all the little mementos that you'll get from under the car when you get under there!

At least the tow truck did some skids pulling you out ;)

Results for the track day.

Anyone know the Show and Shine rusults ????, the black 31 2 door with the cage was my pick !!!!

I'm loving how fatz is in Class D, Race or heavily modified road cars in his massively worked 32 GTR. 3rd fastest time in Class B

Would have thought Dennis Resi GTR would have been a heavily modded road car, and fatz would be in the road car class dose not effect me at all just would make more sense from the results and make them look closer.

My boat maybe should have beed in "D" as well, my first run was in group 2 but I didnt have the pace (read:skill) to keep up with the fast guys so I jumped to group 3, still a fair few of the cars in "B" were "highly modified"

Maybe tyre classification would have been better in splitting the class ?

Call me "Capt Hindsight" or an Idiot, I answer to either !!!!

I circled D not B

Is 380 kw and no cage heavily modified?

As the rules for the event were very lose I would say, "who knows when modified becomes heavily modified"

But going by the CAMS provisional rules and regs I would say yes for mine, they put me in Type SV.

    • Being this happened about 4 years ago, i honestly forget exactly what is was, but I wound bringing to Simon at SR Werks when he was here in NY. He was able to properly diagnose and repair. I believe it had to do with the harness behind my dash. 
    • It's because the air comes in over #3 & #4. The two "dead" ends of the plenum are at #6 & #1, with #6 being a little more "compromised" (Sorry about all the quote marks) than #1, due to the shape. So you get the dead end effect at #6 & #1 where dynamic pressure converts to static pressure, likely causing the air flow to be highest for these. The others are then just working in from the ends to the centre. 6 -> 1 is only valid for FFPs.
    • Cut back on the attitude champ, no one is obligated to help you. The chances of Forester owners on here are quite low, considering this forum is called Skylines Australia. https://www.subarupartsdeal.com/parts/subaru-under-cover-front~56410sa000.html ^ that picture looks wrong, because if you see the diagram, 56410SA070 looks correct. You can always check where the mounting holes are on your car, and compare them to the pictures.
    • Hey Duncan, I've always set them up from 6 -> 1. Due to slightly higher EGT's, I also add a small amount of fuel to cylinder 6 & 5. I understand why you start at 6 but curious as to why you then continue somewhat based on firing order? Thanks
    • United E85 is always 85% ethanol. At least it claims to be. But that goes out of the window about thirty seconds after you put a tank of it into your car and can't do the math to determine if you have 76% ethanol, or 47% ethanol or 26% ethanol because you put 33L in, then 16L in, then a full tank of 98, then "Some" E85. Ethanol tunes that aren't full flex or full E85 all the time are just absolutely a waste of time. Don't be stupid and ruin your car.
