where do u guys go to for motorsports?

like wat are the local motorsports facilities?

dragstrip?

skidpan?

circuits?

Everything is out north near Virginia

Adelaide international Raceway has the dragstrip plus a short circuit and a 400 or 800m bullring circuit (I forget what the length is) there is also a skidpan in the middle of the bullring foir training purposes.

The main circuit is at Mallala about 20 mins further north then Virginia which has regular open speed limit 'practice' days as well as regular drift 'practice' days.

Motokanah events have been known to occur at the AAMI driver training centre at West Lakes in front of the Crows (Adelaide Football Club) Shed just by AAMI Stadium from time to time too.

The best people to get in touch with is the Sports Car Club of South Australia.

Shao...

What info do you need specifically - I'm a regular attendee at the CAMS (SA) meeting and can find out anything you want to know.

As blue stivo commented our 2 main tracks are AIR and Mallala but there is also the hillclimb at Colinsgrove (Sporting Car Club SA) and MotorKhana's held at the Mitsubishi plant Lonsdale - I believe by the Southern Districts Car Club

Hope that was helpful?

if you want any more - or are coming here for a bit and want to have a cruise - let me know and I'll see what I can organise :)

Cheers...

Ben.

Ben do you know if they ever got around to having any events at the Mitsubishi proving track and Tailem Bend? There was talk about about it at one stage. It would be great to see what speeds can be achieved there!!! :P

I believe they hold events at the mitsubishi training ground but not 100% and can't comment on tailem bend because I haven't heard anything about it.

ahhhh, that's my back yard :P ..... the stivo spent plenty fo it's 1st 10,000 km's on those roads... :)

Wirra Wirra is a nice one, d'Arenberg is also good, Colriole is worth a visit as they have some great olive oils and cheeses to top of the wine tasting :) , Fox Creek is great, Pirramimma is lovely as you still go into the cellar for the cellar door sales, adds some old-world charm to the experience and wines are nice to boot. Hugo is OK, but not fantastic...

I would avoid Tattachilla and Woodstock (though the Stocks Shiraz is good)

I can't think of the others off the top of my head but I know there are many more...

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
