    Puke AMCC round 1

    Hey, Im planning my first race at Puke this weekend and im a little concerned at the lack of power avaliable.

    Does anyone have a generator that can power a pair of tyre warmers that I could borrow for the weekend?

    Hopefully I wont need it, but I would rather be safe than sorry (ZX10 with cold tyres does not make for a fun first couple of laps)

    Cheers

    Dude theres heaps of power there. Just make sure you get there at a reasonable time and take a 4 way adapter just in case you need to share.

    Hey Hoon, I'm guessing you are going to be out there? How has the off season treated you?

    I will be out there on Sat as well, should be getting there early and getting a power spot if anyone wants to share with me.

    hmmmm I thought the warmers were 1000w each? so thought I would need at least a 2kva one, which at bunnings are $569.
    Anyone here a know what the story is for sure ???

    I think my warmers are 1000w total. About 450/550 front/rear...

    Warmers are generally between 1000-1300 watts a pair. I have used a small 1200 watt generator on my simple warmers all day without issue.
