What an awesome night. Where were all the WA folk who said they were interested.

Anyway I got a best time of 1.02.37 which I thought was great for street tyres on the short track and man was it fun when it rained.

Nice to meet Ben. I will be back again for sure.

Cheers

Adrian

Likewise bud..

We need more T's out there. They actually perform very well.. I am suprised, to say the least..

They sure do. From memory I ran a 60.4 short track on street tyres at the last Tickford Club sprint day.

I'll be keen to have a go next time with good tyres and brake pads.

best I could muster from a stocker with pads only was 1.03...

I hope that my car is fixed soon as I'll be out there as often as possible.

just a question, anyone use 2nd around the hairpin at the top? I only used 3rd an 4th around the whole track!!

Yeah I did hit second at some stages when I stuffed up the line. 3rd when the line was good and wet

Yeah, I was 4th around the sweeper, drop to 3rd for the hairpin.

Was sideways out of a few 3rd gear turns too..

Some data logging I posted up on FF.au.

With more time, more cars could be logged, and we could view runs back to back and compare against each other..

what is the data??

Vehicle Speed. Vs Time

As it rises up, acceleration, downward slopes are under brakes.

Log starts just past the start finish line, see the big decline in the graph, slight curve is the bottom of the circut, then up thru esses, ( graph sort of looks like a 'S' too, then the curved section is the sweeper going up past the esses.. etc etc.. graph ends at roughly the same place on the track as it started..

On the left is MPH, I forgot to do KPH..

Nice work Ben. Hows the new turbo performing? whats the useable rev range for the it now?

Well I have just been playing with the boost, it comes on pretty strong from 2500rpm with the 14/15 psi I'm running, but the wideband showed fuel going from 12.0 to 11.3, so rich as buggery.

The tune ( simons ) I'm running hasn't been setup for the car with no cat and bits I have changed since it was done.

Seems good enough, but I'm only peaking 14/15psi for a brief moment, dropping back to 11psi in a 1000rpm window, but even though the boost dies, the turbo still sings, and pulls pretty well. I'd say, atmo it would run a very high 12.

Last night was the first time I have pushed it, and you only really use 3000-5000rpm, which it did nicely. I ran a softer tune for the entire night, only dialing in some more timing for the last lap, which picked up 500rpm down the straight, and cut over 1 second from my time. Then it rained..............

Looks promising..

btw, That comp cover alone should be a good buy..

So your only really taking a 300 to 500 rpm increase before boost? Sounds promising. Im just waiting on some picture of the comp cover and wheel before i pay up. Of course it comes up the weel after i put the engine and turbo back in the car... :spoton:

Im looking forward to seeing the big apple run the 1/4. (hopefullt theres no repeat of last time i was there... :blush: )

:nono:
