SDMA Hillclimb 15th September.

I chucked an entry in , pulled the old girl out of mothballs . But I only have an old set of street tyres with legal tread , so reckon times will be crap , but fun factor should be high. Forcast is now for rain developing , so a slip --- sliding we will go !!!!!!!!!!!!!


Here is a link to the starting list .

Looks like they're being super anal about noise. Lots of dsqs on the board.
Also well done Todd C with consistent 46s!

The vk sounded a lot louder than 87? Ad there where a couple of cars on slicks there that I noticed? Or are those rules for competition vs not competition if there even is that.

[Tyrie]

Slicks should still have treadwear indicators.

[SumKid]

Ahh all good, so just has to be like a legal amount of tread per say.

Hmm. Would have been a perfect day to keep racing. A 47.97 on 2nd run. But it doesn't count as I pinged the sound meter...

Doesn't change the fact that I finally cracked into the 47s - very bloody happy with that. Now if I can just do it and not ping the sound meter...

Very happy with the new R888s. The 225s up front are perfect. Could maybe do with a 235 at the back, but the 225s did the job ok. Pressures seem to be critical...

Went home early after pinging sound meter twice - figured I might as well get stuck into doing some more on the kids cubby house.

A few pic's of the Toyota's in action ---------------

Had a great day also. Finally got into the 52's (on street tyres even).

Sounds like a great weekend for the Todd's

[natett]

Anyone get any shots of my mates white evo? He managed consistent 47s only second time doing hill climb.

^^^Hahaha What happened Bob? Suddenly forgot how to drive?

May well be ? But note no brakes used ---- I stayed on the throttle ---- AH ! SHIT THAT'S PROBABLY WHY I SPUN ? Oh!!!!!! and the tyres where ......................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ............ Blah , Blah , Blah , Blah !!!!!!!!!!!

[Toddski]

Any photos of the non-Toyota during it's brief outing Bob?

Looking forward to the October event when the sound levels are more generous (using 2 noise credits so I think that is 95db) so I won't have to worry about being disqualified.

Now I just need to work out how I'm going to get back from Rally of the Bay in time for the hillclimb. Why is there always clashes with motorsport events?
