My Gemini does this also. It runs 2 044s and idles for about 15-20mins in the staging lane prior to the run. When I get back to the pits you can’t touch the surge tank as the fuel is almost boiling. Usually have about 40l in the tank to try and help compensate with volume.
I’m considering a fan fed oil cooler to see if it makes a difference?

Very good info in there IJ. I’ve been watching Justin for years as he has very simple well thought out tutorials. Particularly his earlier seasons when he was still working out of his garage.

Thanks Gary. Plans for the engine are down the list a little. Next thing that really needs doing is a new diff. The welded Gemini diff just doesn’t cut it when it comes to trying to apply power (and maintain grip) through tight turns. It’s very much a handful. So I’m looking at a limited slip setup that will just make it nicer to drive overall. A…[Read more]

CAMS required and extra diagonal as the ones we welded in were not exactly to Schedule J. Second diagonal went into the back stays along with gussets at the X. It’s way over spec now and has added quite a bit of weight, but the safety and rigidity that comes with it is worth it.

Mid last year I was chomping at the bit to have the cage underway as soon as the racing season finished. A little digging around and I found a guy that does automotive stuff on the side of his mobile industrial fabrication business. Robert (360 Custom Fabrication) had built many cages for CAMS, FIA, and ANDRA spec cars, so we put a plan together…[Read more]

I raced again June last year. New transmission felt strong with snappy shifts, so that was a win. I little mishap saw my day end early though. When I put the radiator together a couple of years back I mounted the thermo fan directly to the core with the included plastic zip style mounts, with the intention of making a shroud to suit the…[Read more]

Ive been slack and need to update this thread:
A mate and I entered a Ringwood event in March last year. No indications of any mechanical problems in my shed in the week prior, or loading on/off the trailer. Scrutineering saw no issues and away we went. However there was clearly something amiss on first lap of the day. No 2nd gear what soever,…[Read more]

Yes. I really like it. Not as convenient as PB was but it does the job great. Yeah in the future they might turn down the same path as PB and charge like a bull but I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it. I’d say Flickr are aware of the negative feedback PB are receiving across the interwebs and hopefully learn from it. They would have…[Read more]
