1 tip i could give to these new young drivers would be dont slam on your brakes when the red light comes on, just brake slowly until you comes to a stop. This helps so when you stop you dont get hit from behind
cheers

Basic Tyre Sizes for meeanee
Right rear 185/70/13
left Rear 185 or 175/70 13
right front 185/70/13
left front 175/70/13
Obviously as you learn more about the class you can alter these to suit how you drive.
Basic Tyre pressures Meeanee
20psi on right hand side
18 psi on left hand side
you can raise these by 6 psi for a dry track or lower them by 2 psi for a wet track depending on how you drive.

1982 datsun sunny wagon comes with 3:7 diff head. I havent quite worked out palmy yet tried a few different things on the 85b ministock on sunday. was a lil bit slower then palmy cars at end of straight might be just due to diff ratio. I would run a 195R13 on right rear though. same as what I ran at Baypark

For Palmy Have a trying using this..
3.7 Diff Ratio
LF 185/70 12psi RF 185/70 20psi
LR 175/70 10psi RR 185/70 20psi
Or can try using 185/80 i think? on the RR and put the 185/70 on the LR.

Straights arent that long, speed coming out of the corner is more important then at the end of the straight at WP

Post by Rusty on Nov 14, 2009 12:05:51 GMT 12
3:7 would be a good start then 3:9 if you find you havent got enough revs when exiting corners

Running out of revs 3/4 down straights.
185 RR @ 26psi.
175 LR @ 22psi.
3.7 diff. ( is out off station wagon)
lifted psi 2lbs in rears and gave a little more straight.
Any ideas?

3.7 every track, just change tires for every track. He's got it, what a waste of time changing diff heads (Where i don't even think thats legal anyway). Do homework on the car before you buy it, check that the engines been sealed etc.. |

changing diff heads is definately legal as the 3:7 comes out in 1982 datsun sunny as well as the 3:88888889
