How much will Sam love me at Wakefield if I setup launch control on the TrackDub, causing it to have the tendency to throw 3-4ft fire balls out the new and improved straight pipe.....

Went to WP today to get a feel of the newly tuned car, man it was HOT.... water, oil, transmission everything is over heating after only one warm up lap and two hard laps.... its just a mess hopefully come Jan we get some decent weather...

It could be a day for the NA cars if that's the case! Its hard to say what will happen down there. One day its 10 degrees the next its 35. I know of a few guys running a water spray onto the intercooler. Could do the same with the oil cooler.
Make sure you run a 10-60 oil to deal with the heat.
 
I would be keen for twilight sessions to combat the heat but its not an option with Wakefield Park management. We are lucky to get the 4pm-6pm photo session.
 
 

The garage allocation. reg's and indemnity forms will available in the next few days. Just sorting out a few other 'issues' right now.
Looks like we may get 24 cars to the trackday with a murmur the 'Pearl' may make a return. One can only hope!
 

night sessions would be unreal, with the lower temp and lower density air, would be unreal for the boosted cars.

Im getting close now, just need to fill the form and pay steve ahaha! :P

hasnt been without hickups tho, 2 weeks untill i leave, and my car is on stands having found my LHF caliper has seized while i was installing the new pads and rotors, rack ends and tie rod ends ahaha!

And im now thinking of putting a pressure sensor in the car..

TBH ill be running 10-40 RP oil with 400ml of Lucas High performance Oil stabliser.

It never ends..

Great to see you are almost sorted.
I will talk with Wakefield Park about the twilight for 2015.
 
Sadly I cannot say the same thing. My engine broke yesterday. Not a happy camper right now but will not effect the management of the trackday. Infact, it will only help the running of the show. I will bring the car along to display but it is not operating .BUT, if someone shows up with a Gen 3 head on the Sunday, we will put it together on the Sunday night and get it out on the track for a few runs.  All the parts will in the car ready to go incase this happens.

Ouch. That's terrible news. I was looking forward to seeing your car running properly.

NOOOO!! YOU PROMISED ME A RIDE
I guess I won't be making this one since you broke promise Steve sigh...
 
 
 
 
...Well there is still time, I admire that determination and will help out Sunday night as emotional support (since I'll just get in the way lol)

Tree,
 
One of the guys in Melbourne has a head organised for me. It will be up here is a few days then fitted by New Year so looking ok for a drive at the trackday. Humbled at the support. Thankyou people.
You passenger run is secure! Looks like there will be a convoy of about five cars from Victoria. I wonder if it was possible for at the people coming from the south the meet at the turn off for S.A./W.A. on the Highway? It would be pretty cool seeing it all happen.
 
I will bring the webber along and throw a roast with some vegies on the Sunday afternoon for everyone. Will be ready by 7pm.
Just need to sort out some salad and rolls to go with the roast.
Don't forget your breakfast if that's how you start the day. The café will be open with a hot food,rolls, coffee etc if you don't get the chance to have something organised.
If people are interested in bringing their push bikes along, you are able to ride or walkthe track after it is closed for motorsport. People can also ride/walk the track before 7.30am. Allow 20mins for the walk.
 
Everyone who arrives on the Sunday will have their cars scrutineered, cars receive a scrutineering sticker, car number, cars will be set up in the garages in anticipation of the Monday events. If I can organise access to the scales, we will also sort this out on the Sunday to save some time on the Monday.
 
Anyone coming along to the watch can park their car on the grass area outside the café. After having a look at a good location this is clearly the best with a grassed area and a backdrop of trees and the café. So after seeing the on track action, you can go for a walk to the café and enjoy a car show on the way there.
 
Any questions, let me know.
