After much consideration , I have decided that I will not participate in Track Day "IF" it goes ahead... The thought of the ute being written off and or damaged has consequences Playing it safe..

:11doh:

I can answer that one Peter.. Apparently all track days are under CAMS supervision now...Hence the officials etc If you have 20 cars then the cost per individual is $175 + $20 license

Finally I have some news... The cost to hire the Track for a day is $3500.00 Available months are April and May (haven't enquired about later in the year) This includes 1)Ambulance and Medics 2)Track Marshalls 3)Esses spotter 4)Officials You are also required a ONE DAY CAMS License .......Cost is $20.00 Only 10 cars are permitted on the track at a time.. There is NO INSURANCE OF ANY DESCRIPTION...You crash you pay! Anyone care to comment or has a question?

Nice Bruce looks like the rev limit is bumped to 6400 as well

Got the invoice for my 15k service... $132 but I supplied the oil.

Same here.....

give Maxx a PM ..

Thanks for the encouragement JB Having fun in the process

What did they do to fix it? I've had mine in twice to get fixed and hasn't made any difference. While it was at jarvis for its service they did the WDS update..it cured the idle problem but had to go back to morpowa to get the unichip tuned again...

numbers are looking good so far...

And bloody sedans :lol:

Just remembered...If the new diff turns up then I wont be running(have to run the diff in) but I could always waiting until the meet is over before I get it fitted.. :lol: But I'll be there

I'll second that... Cant hear a thing

The next meet is the 19th of Feb.. Who is interested..

Tonight was my first time at the drags...(much learning still required ) My main problems are with axle tramp and hitting the limiter all too often.. Hoping for better results in 2 weeks time But the best I could manage was 13.4 @108 Much was learnt tonight

Great to meet you Craig That Black thing of yours is awesome SA is now :o by a victorian :o Big special Thanks goes out to Vik for keeping the engine temperature under control :o

Who is coming Tonight??

its doing the opposite...sunny as hell and the clouds are disappearing

No problems

I'll hang on for as long as I can....You Dad has my number

when will he knows if he has a flight?

Looking forward to see him... Bit cloudy ATM with a bit of sunshine here and there....Temps at the moment are low 20's

Thanks once again Geea ..But Vixen is a manual...However I'm running a ceramic plate so I'm not too fussed about giving the clutch a bit of abuse.. Is the burn out neccesary?

The first question Simon asked me was "how does the tune feel after the update" The first thing I noticed was the lack of power thru out the rev range ,,but the idle was smoother On the dyno it confirmed the reduced power...The update had altered the fuel and spark of the original PCM tune This inturn had thrown the unichip out , as the unichip was bending the newly altered PCM maps which resulted in an out off tune engine The Ford dealer I go to also have had instances where updates have caused chipped cars to not refire at all... After 1 1/2 on the dyno and a test drive listening for detonation ,Vixen's power is the same as it was before the update... The only thing that has improved because of the update was the idle quality..Much more consistent now..We put the previous idle fluctuations down to the aluminium flywheel (4.6 kg lighter than stock flywheel) during the clutch upgrade.. JB have you had your air/fuel ratio checked since the update? The Air/fuel ratio I noticed was reading lean when we done the dyno run
