god damn it! i didn't even know it was on and its only an hour away.
Must have been their first event on the bitumen track, but the drifters have been using it for over 6 months.
It's the second one they've run apparently. I would have contacted you if I'd known you could just enter the bitumen day. Only got to do one lap of the track at a time, but was an interesting track. 1200km is a long way to travel for a track day, but we'll try and get down there again when we can.
coming down??????
The image doesn't work for me?
probably to short of notice now

bitumen/dirt khanacross in proserpine this weekend.
saturday bitumen, sunday dirt.
If you know nothing about it then i guess you haven't planned to go!
Unfortunately no. I'd like to, but was there a few weeks back, and have just raced at Townsville last weekend, so not feeling like another huge roadtrip so soon.
I'm using all suspension out of your car now. Its so soft, the body roll is amazing. Despite that, it grips like crazy and won its class!

I looked up the spring rates by cross referencing the trd part no's once and the fronts were something like 4.4kg/mm.
That's why i had such big swaybars to counter the body roll.
U1.6l class?
4.3s in the rear?

Yeah, they're mega soft - great for off road. I'm using stock swaybars now and often no rear swaybar on the dirt.
It's in the <1600 class. This year we've rebuilt the motor with new rings, bearings, a ported head and some bigger cams. We found it had blacktop internals in the bottom end, and 7 rib block. Someone has modified the blacktop pistons to clear the 16v valves. Has much higher compression than a normal bigport and the timing needs to be advanced to something ridiculous (off the scale) to make it run. Strange motor.
