Yeah Adrian that's the thing though, at Winton after I came in to tighten up the clamp, the car was fine the rest of the day.. Since then Ive been to Calder and Phillip Island, with no such problem whatsoever.... First flying lap yesterday, BANG, it comes off, and did so for the other 4 outings on the track..... So yeah you could say I was fed up....

Problem will be fixed with all the clamps replaced with decent thick ones, not the crap original ones.... Seems like it won't hold full boost in 4th gear.....

Can't wait for the next track day!!!!!

Hey Tom what happened to those few REX's they are a total mess, hope noone was hurt....

That one rolled at turn 1 on 1 of the last super sprints.

I saw some pics the guy that was trying to sell for $25 for A4 size and damn i need some new springs and rear end suspension work, the rear end was loading up on 1 side and frying the tyres out of each corner exit.

Told you those photos of you told the story why you cant get thru/out of corners without torching those poor tyres. LOL and you wanted to try the spare rims with semis:)

Yep I saw 1 of becs pics coming out of turn 1 and there is 1 of chris's car at he same corner and angle of photo and it says alot about how bad my current suspension setup is!!!!

Drew (jorg) - really nice to meet you as well. And a huge Kudos to your Mrs for giving it a go as well.

Can you tell us about your car? Pretty stock still?

The Mrs gave it a punt...awesome:thumbsup:

I thought i was being clever getting there at 8am but still only just managed to get a bay:( I think next time it may pay to get there 30 mins earlier so that we can all stay in a huddle...didnt really get a chance to go down near Denham and co:(

Ok - just going through the results for the club championship and a special mention has to go to Wayne for breaking the club record with 18 timed laps (not including warm-up / cool down or the practise session laps). Previous best was 15 laps.

Certainly beats Jacks 1 timed lap.

Wayne was parked next to me in pit row and he went out every session he could, and refilled his tank 2 times during the day :D

I was using 1/4 tank per session, not sure if that is normal? I will install my safc for the next round. Also, here is a pic for you Denham:

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
