I'll be patient:(
little bit wobbly but not bad at all. EFI tuning would help smooth that out. Cant wait to hear this thing :D
The article about the 4 cars will be in Zoom next month, got some scans through today, so have a look for it.
Ive been working on my bus today getting it ready for the weekend. Installed new mastercylinder, brakes pads, bias adjuster and made a new actuation rod for the bigger master, hopefully the new pads/m/c will have the brakes working right Jeez my back is sore. Tommorrow is pick the muffler up from welders.. tried welding mild steel to a R1 titanium muffler myself with a mig = fail:( . The guy has put a new flange on for me but it was expensive $80, but it keeps coming lose so the new flange mount should fix it hopefully. Have to fit the front splitter after destroying the other one:o. Wash it and load it, having a practice day friday to bed the brakes and hope they work and soften up the rear for better powerdown and turn in.
Heres a few pages from Zoom
few more scans, crappy quality:o
nice from what I could read was good :) Lovely 4 shot at the the end there.
You NEED to get some vid up on youtube or somewhere mate! Yeh mild steel to titanium, youll need a TIG for that one and theyre not cheap unfortunately :(
Glad to hear its all coming along mate, your back hurts now but as soon as you jump in it at the circuit you wont give a damn :D
Had a reasonable meet today, Qualifying: bedded brakes in for 6 laps in qualifying, I qualified with a slow 1.27.5. The brakes are working great now, no fade and plenty of bite I highly reccomend the HAWK dtc-60s. My brother went off in qualifying when his tie rod broke, he went off but only killed his splitter thankfully

Race 1 (20 mins) : The heavens opened just before we formed up and I was nervous I have practised on a wet track but never raced. Took it really easy and just played with brakes etc. I noticed smoke coming out the car coming out turn 4 a hard R/H and it was getting worse. When I got back to the pits I saw the rear seal on the G/Box was leaking. I was 2.4 secs quicker than the brother so I was happy.:D

Race 2 ( 20 mins) : I started badly and missed the start again, Clint was driving Craigs car to see what it could do. He showed me how much harder I can push on the 1st lap. My driving was erratic in the last race but got a few good laps in. My g/box leak was getting worse and it was only a matter of time before I was black flagged. Clint broke the diff in Craigs car on lap 6 so I was circulating by myself at the rear and actually got a few good laps in beofr the black flag came out. I bettered my PB by 6 tenths of a sec so Im happy with that. The brakes are great now with nice balance, no fade and a consistent pedal. The car went on the trailer undamaged and the new g/box seal is a whole $8. The next race meet is in a month and I rekon a 1.25 is going to happen

here another vid of a Audi RS4 doing hot laps round Mallala, the lap times are amazingly close with the rolla.... both around the 1.25 mark to do a lap, the audi is driven by one of audis high performance driving instructors though, not some fat guy with a mid life crisis:p

Round 3 of the State Championship
Good racing today the nephews co entered with us as they wanted a steer and can drive a lot harder than us, there used to 200hp more and laptimes in the 1.16 round Mallala
Race results today, the nephews drove our cars the KE20 IP #77and KE25 IP #25 and got down into the low 23s in the race . Clint now has the EM u1600 record for Mallala for IP, Rob got Craigs KE20 into the 23s also. All it shows is they can drive and we cant. I finally cracked a 25 today a 1.25.4 and Craig got down to a 1.26 flat. Hopefully a 1.24 tommorrow. We both knocked 8/10ths of our previous PB
Cars are still running so all is good, have a 10 and 16 lap race tommorrow
All race results
