The rain (that the BOM last week were predicting for Wednesday) is now sposed to happen this afternoon with tomorrow being fine and sunny.

No doubt that forecast will change 3x between now and then though...

tonight was f**king gay. my brother held me up by a freakin hour and a half. i ended up getting down at 7pm when they told me they ran out of competitors tickets.

i was able to take some good photos though.

im heading down next week :)

that guy really did need help!!! 13.5 down the qtr isn't so bad though! lol!!!

and we saw your car parked in the competitor area.. with no front bar!!! wondered what had happened!!! was planning on taking a pic of it, but it was gone when i went to take one! lol!!! oh wells!!!

i havent had a front bar on in ages.. its too damn low for anything. im raising the car before i do anything.

the car parked next to mine was my brothers m3 (328i convertible with full m3 conversion) it freakin hammers

not a bad night

bloody busy though

only managed a 12.785

no slicks - rally tyres on. car just sat there in 1st and 2nd gear spinning on the spot til i grabbed 3rd

also quite possibly had something to do with the fact that i was launching at 7000rpm every time hehe

burnout comp was a shambles. same f**king truck and his team. its advertised as 6 cars. only five rocked up - i said i have my car ready to go to be #6. they tell me no it'sd only 5 cars allowed each week. pissweak. anyway rant over .

was good fun. cant wait to go again

mark

Mark it's 5 cars total, but if your a mate of that guy with the tow truck you can get straight in *shakes head* i'm actually sick of watching that tow truck now. It was good fun to watch the first 2-3x but watching it do a 5min burnout every single wed nite isn't amusing anymore.

The bogan award of the nite goes to the drive of the yellow ford that spat the diff at the start line only to get out of his car and lock the doors (whilst still at the start grid) haha.

    • 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
