Nothing like a bit of big brake action while chopping off feet.

Thanks to all involved in today, my daily survived half a day and once the storm hit i decided to quit while ahead and in one piece.

Heres a video of a fun lap i had putting down only a low 22 but was my driest run of the day, way off the pace of my dry time in my track car of a 15 but still fun.

Enjoy the video and ill be working on a Holy shit sliding video highlight soon, including a guest starring white stag turn 5 :P

Had a great day driving a lemon, well done to Mr Wootten came out on top in the tricky wet conditions.

I think the R31 lemon really proved it self today with over 100 laps for testing and placing 5th and 6th outright for the day.

Big thanks to all involved in organising the track day.

Had a fantastic day, first time driving in wet condition on a track.... Nankangs made it even better :P

The LeMon really proved to be a reliable and consistent car, not bad for one of the lowest powered cars on the day.

Cant wait to hit the track again very soon... This time with a few more KWs ;)

Thank you organisers, thanks Alex for your guidance and thank you SMSP for providing much needed pit tents!!!

Had a great first track day learning the limits of my car (and myself) in the rain.

Did achieve my milestones set for the day

1. Don't destroy my car (Despite a very near miss on my first un-pace car corner!)

2. improved times from session to session.

Was too exhausted to troll through my camera footage but will do shortly!

Cheers,

Mathew

You know you're doing bad at a track day when you have to let an R31 by... :rofl2:

    • Meh, At 60 years old, I have been doing dumb stuff for much longer than you mate, I am the true King And unfortunately I cannot be a maroon, as I am not brownish red As for not getting ITB's, the plenum intake will apparently show typical gains across the board and increase induction noise a bit, but, have all over less dort than ITB's Cost difference for the extra ITB dorts was significant though, the total parts for the plenum set up is "around" $2kAUD plus shipping, the ITB's were $4kAUD plus shipping, I was contemplating really hard about paying the extra $2k for all of the dorts, but weirdly, some form of common sense, from listening to the platform experts prevailed  As for the NA mod hate by some, I've had a few boosted cars, with all their inherent issues, I'm now looking at simplicity and legalities for a street car, maybe I'm just getting old, and I'm quite happy to spend some of the kids inheritance, 5kw at a time 馃ぃ And think of all the money I'll be saving on consumables that something with boost needs, like engines, gearboxes, diffs, clutches,  tilt trays... etc. etc. etc. 馃お
    • Haha.  I wouldn't say I am either but I've definitely been around it plenty.  I'm guessing you know the dial in is basically to make a handicap to level the playing field between racers.  The car with the slower dial in goes first and in theory if they run their dial in time and the faster car also does then they cross the finish time if they also have exactly the same reaction time - if you go faster than the dial in them you lose, but if you are too slow there's a good chance the other person will get to the finish line first. I'm normally supporting other cars but they were all pretty dialled and were egging me on to race as well, here's one of the cars I tune (Starlet) which ran within like 1 hundredth of its dial in through the competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inEBu-d9Gn4&t=69s
    • Where ever the fuel reg gets it reference is what I use to T into for map reference been a very long time so where it goes to plenum/runners I have no idea but never had issues. 
    • What ecu? Same shop every time? Same ambient temperature? If timing is correct then pull plugs and see if lean or rich. Dyno can also read different if they have changed ramp rate or not set tacho/speed properly  
    • I've never done dial in's just straight up, whatever that's called. I'm far from a drag (racing ) expert.
