The GrpA & GrpC boys will be racing at Eastern creek including 2x GMS HR31s.

Saturday 19 will be practice and 1 race in the arvo. Sunday 20 will be 2 races in the morning with a possibility of another race in the arvo time permitting (which it generally doesn't)

what other cars do they race against?

last time there was an xf falcon, few vk commos, sierra (beat the lot of em), and some others.

good day mate. you should come out and see.

best part of the day is checking out hooker in his sexy winfield outfit!

Ok, times...

Race 1 is down for 11:15am on Saturday morning. First practice and qualifying are from 8am.

The first 2 races on Sunday are for 11am and 12:15pm. There may be another race at 4pm if there is enough time.

I don't know if there is any fee to get in but I've got a pass so nyea nyea :devfu: .

88Sillo, I'll be at the track around 7-8am Saturday, same Sunday. We are in the new garages to the left after you go through the tunnel near the medical block.

top day. only got out there for a few hours (and missed the bloody HR31 race!! :))

hooks showed me the times set my Rod in the HR. second fastest in his group I believe!

bloody fast. heap of other cars too --> sunbeams, zeffas, the works

see ya next year

I went out on Sunday at 2.30pm, was some pretty close interesting racing. Haven't seen those class of cars race for many years (well the old Amaroo Park days). Some pretty damn quick drivers/cars too, I timed a few 1m29sec cars :)

Yea, there was all sorts of weird vehicles racing.

The one that did it for me though was the red with a yellow stripe Lola driven by Wayne Park. If that thing didn't have 2 foot wide slicks on it I'll eat my hat!

Had the mumbo too, 88Sillo and I watched as it came around turn 2 in the warm up and the driver gave it a small squirt and turned it around.

Broomph---180! Hugely impressive considering the rubber!

There was Alboreto's F1 Ferrari there too. The 1.5litre turbo. It had a 3 position switch marked 650, 750, and 1000. I'm excited!

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
