Hi, attached photos (and many more at www.ifpix.com) were taken on a Winton race track on 24 Jan 2010.
I had a blast.

And your bumpers seem to colour match o/k unlike one of our other members with a red (European built) car?

G'day Sobocanec,

Can you tell me what tyre pressures you were using on the track? I'm doing some Sprints at Eastern Creek in a month or so and was wondering what to use.
Thanks,

Jase

Hi Jase, I am by no means experienced to give you technical advice on this subject. But to answer your question
I had 48 psi on front and 44 psi on the back . My tyres are filled with Nitrogen gas all the time. I get free check ups and pressure alteration
at regular intervals. Lately less and less frequent because tyres are  holding pressure very well (despite a puncture I had repaired some time ago)
If you care to read about my funday at Winton, is here:

Best regards.

Thanks for the link , and the pressure info. I'm not experienced in this area either, but I'll have a go at it and see what the Diesel can do ( whilst still driving semi-sensible ). :wink:
Should be lots of fun.
