Jeez thanks Kym Yes, i didnt realise i needed tow triangles but the masking tape and texta was ok'ed by scrutineering.
Im glad i got 2 consistent 1.31s but you can see i had to back off after that cos she got a tad warm Also may need to replace brake pads, they sound a bit glazed over/grate-y - and a blast of air just now didnt reveal any sand/rocks stuck in there. With better suspension and tyres i would easily be into the high 1.20s
Lee - Didnt see any knock, the engine light came on around the fast corner around the back (4??) but would disappear as soon as i backed off the throttle a bit - it wasnt flashing, it was constant, im wondering if there was something with the oil supply? Didnt run the Evoscan, forgot completely about it. and CEL? Will have to let you know about fri night, need to get the boost/exhaust leak fixed before even thinking about it. Getting a bit worried i might not even be ready for dyno day now
hey Joooooooooon...........

Yup my guess is you had it loaded in 4th round the back kink and it may be knocking at that point thus why logging it would be ideal at that time. Oh well we'll have to try replicate it when tuning next

whats the go with the yaris on the list?
He was running third in the championship, not sure where he ended up overall. I was right behind him in 2 sessions, he was able to brake about a second after me and throw it around the corner much quicker than i could. But he struggled for top speed, where i was doing 170, he'd only make 140
However, he was super consistent with his times (you get more points the further you are above or below your times) so was doing really well. Thats what makes this event so fun, its not about all out speed

The Yaris driver Geoff is my mates boss, great knowledgeable guy, very involved with the Austin7 club. His Yaris consitently puts to shame much more powerful cars. It's quite funny watching it be quicker than Porsches and the look on their faces.

Any video footage of the Yaris? I love watching unexpected awesome.
I paid for a set of wheels to fit my semis on about 2 weeks ago and the dude never sent them. They only rocked up late yesterday. My daily wheels/tyres are only Westlakes so there is no way I was running on them lol. It was good though cos Dion was the Guinea Pig, I now know i WILL need 4 pots and rotors.
I have braided brake lines and filled up with good quality fluid before hand - it isnt really enough under those conditions (excellent for street though), the legnum is a HEAVY car and the calipers just didnt inspire 100% confidence. I was impressed with how well they did do though, only one or two times did i get a bit nervous
What rotors and pads are you running though Dion (EBC slotted and dimpled from memory?).
I was thinking that my DBA4000's (with braided lines and fresh fluid) with a more track orientated pad (ie A1RM's or EBC Yellows) would be ok for short durations on the track (currently running red's on the street, which are much better than the HPX's that they replaced)
