How was Stanthorpe Len?

[TurboTaxi]

it was a load of fun
New motor ran well for the first run and i trundled around and gave it a few blats and spun easily in third halfway down the straight

second run lost power quickly and oil pressure started pulsing so headed for pits

started it up and what i thought .. knock kncok knock
spun ANOTHER big end
i really have got to get to the bottom of this oil surge problem

The sump on my FJ20 had to have the bottom raised for ground clearance purposes Len so it was baffled in the usual way and I never had any problems doing sprints and stuff. I don't have pics any more but there is plenty of info on the www about sump baffling, it's been done a million times.

we really need a track line carnell down here in brisbane, or on the end of one of the coast's. IWMAC have been talking about tarmacking their circuit for a while, but I haven't heard anything for a while on that.

Not good mate. Who is building these motors?

[ahabthearab]

I think Len builds them himself

edit, Fuck I look good in that photo

Was a great weekend, Over subscribed so we didn't get as much running as last year.

Highlight would have to be seeing the speed that Cameron Freemans datto got to the end of the straight.
