Mr 350Z

Lets not talk about the Bathurst Cruise......I think i still have frostbite on my balls !!!! LOL

LOL blast from the past......there were the good days.....!!! I wonder how we would go organising a meeting or somethign with all the old skool crew

Nope, full refund is given to all those that have paid.

Sorry guys but due to lack of interest the Autotech Drag day will be cancelled. You can find details on refunds (for those that have paid) here: http://forums.autotechengineering.com.au/i...p?showtopic=288 Once again sorry guys, better luck next time i guess.

There are plenty of spots available mate, so if you have mates that are interested let me know. Basically its first in with payment bessed dressed, regardless of how many on the list (untill we fill spots).

Drag day payment date extended till the friday 7th of April

Thanks mate, will update when i get the confirmation. PS, if you have looked at the list, we now have (confirmed) a 360 Ferrari coming along.......This is going to be sweet

Ah ok, i am assuming you may have put your name down to the V8owner track day. Ok, let me know how you go, if your still interested and there are still spots we can sort something out for you.

I understand your concerns guys, at this stage nothing is written as no money has been transfered. Everything has been verbal at this point. I have some info however i am waiting on a confirmation call from WSID tomorrow to get the final details.....at which point i will post them up. PS, i am keeping record of who i speak to, what number i called them on, date, time etc so there shouldnt be any issues, but ill see if i can get something written before money gets transfered across to them.

Hi Guys, some of you have asked questions such as can bikes race etc. Here are the answers. Additional Information 1) Motor bikes CAN race, however they are not permitted to race against cars. Same rules apply with a bike, they cannot run faster then 11.00. 2) Gates and scrutineering starts at 8am, racing at 10. I am still in discussions as to what happens if the day is a wash out (rain). I will update you guys as soon as i know (should be tomorrow)

Thanks guys.....If the spots dont get filled then yes it gets cancelled. If it gets cancelled you will all recieve a full refund, however it shouldnt be the case, i have a fair few people looking into paying this week so it should be ok. Regards, Dean

Getting close now guys, about a week or so to go before we hit cut off for the event. How are you guys going with payments? Ill need to start getting some in soon to confirm places. Look forard to hearing from you guys, Regz Dean

Hi V_Twin, Mate, sorry for the delayed reply however I am waiting for the official word from John from WSID. Email has been send, if i dont get a reply mon arvo ill give him a call. As soon as i get soom sort of a response ill let you guys know. Regs Dean

LOL the only trick up my sleaves was that i wasnt planning on running the car.....purly just to organise. Concerns over whether or not my gearbox will hold up on the day is the reason why i wasnt planning on running. However, now that your going......I think i may need to put it back in for a couple runs LOL.. We'll see what happens, ill need to speak to Spiro at autotech then go from there.

LOL somebody is keen to race. PS, Ok Mona, you got me as my first race............You know, if you wonna chop me, there was an easier way to do it, all you had to do was ask LOL Looks like your finally gonna get to chop/own the big ford ay

Sweet, will put your name in the list and your spot will be confirmed as soon as payment goes through. Regz Dean PS: To make it easier for you guys, when i have a moment ill put up my post from Autotech which has all the details in my first post......will save all you guys having to look at various links etc.

No worries mate, let me know how you go, if you are interested in coming along after the V8 day, ill add your name to the list. Good to see some names guys, Its always good to have a bit of a gathering. More and more people are joining in, so its starting to look like a great day...........Latest rumour is that there may be some old school muscle coming along, in the form of a GT Falcon.....he is yet to confirm 100% though. Along with the monaro (twin turbo), transam, STi's and offcourse, MONA I am going to be up for a hell of alot of runs.........*knock on wood my gear box holds together* Regz Dean

LOL at go Commando......Hey Mona, you think the guys would mind if i turned up commando ??? Come on girls....no G washing, Waxing, Hair washing/Straightening/Colouring/Cutting, Cleaning, etc etc on the day.....You know you all want to flog the guys As for the guys.....Come on guys......Lets see some entrants......dont tell me the rexy and ford guys are gonna out do you all !!!!! LOL sorry, i can sit on the fence, i got both a nissan and a ford LOL ...On a serious note, it would be great to see number of you out there. Should be an AWSOME day, cant wait ....PS, Mona, i think i have been assigned Cheif for the the day, so you may even get to see me with a little apron on LOL

Replied on the Autotech forum, but just incase you missed it, Leave it with me and i will confirm with WSID...do you know what times these bikes should run, ie, quicker then 10 or 11 second passes ???? Regz Dean

Thanks for the quick payment Mona. As for spectators, that can be organised closer to the day when we start organising food etc. Ill let you know when we need numbers.

How are we looking here guys, do we have anybody else thats interested in a Drag Day. It should be an awsome event with a number of cars, as mentioned XR6 Turbos, STi's, Soarers, should be a Transam......Will be a good day to meet some fellow car buddies and do some legal racing. I hope to see a number of you attend, it would be nice to see a few of you ladies sign up along with Mona as its not often that I see girls attend events like this.......Kick some Guy ass girls ....... Or vice versa if its Mona racing PM me or post up if you guys have any questions, Regards, Dean

Hi Thomas, Payment for the drag day needs to be made by the 28th of this month. There is still room so as long as you get it in by then you should be ok. I can add your name, just confirm when payment is made......however if we fill up then i have to give preference to those who have there money ready. The link above should be working and you can find all the banking details on the site. Hey Mona, LOL nah, i dont think I will be any competition for you....12.5, i have no chance . You can run Master G in his Silver Service Taxi.....LOL, his car should be ready and out on the track that day Silver gts-t - Name has been added to the list, Autotech will confirm when payment goes through and then ill secure your spot (same for you Mona).

Hey Mona, If you dont get a good turn out on the day and you want to get a couple lady's on the track, please feel free to bring them the the Drag day that i am organising.

Hey Guys, Just a quick note, I am trying to put together a drag day on behalf of Autotech Engineering in Granville. We are booking out the track on the 14th of May. As a member of SAU, i would like to extend the invitation to you guys (i know Mintie and prolly Mona will attend) so that we can mix it up a little. So far we have XR6 Turbos, Soarers, STi's, WRX's, 180's, Foresters and more coming along and it would be nice to see a couple of Lines out there strutting there stuff. More details can be found on: http://forums.autotechengineering.com.au/i...wtopic=201&st=0 To make it easier for you guys, here are all the details as posted on the above link: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Guys, As alot of you know, we have been playing with the idea of organising an Autotech Drag day. Well, finally after plenty of planning and communicating, it is going to happen on MAY 14th, which is a Sunday. The details are as follows: * Cost per car - $205 (including lunch and light refreshments - ie soft drinks) * Pit crew allowed = 2 - $5 entry each * Spectators allowed = 3 $5 entry each * Drag racing is between 10 - 4 (lunch break around 1ish) * Gates open 7 (from memory, I will confirm this) For this day to go ahead, we will need between 40 to 50 cars. Payment for the track needs to be made approx 1 month before, therefore whoever wants to go MUST PAY IN FULL BY 28TH of MARCH Payment needs to be made at Autotech where you will recieve a recipt saying you have payed. Please leave your Name (or nick on the forum) with them (or send me a PM once you have payed) so that we can keep a list of people who are attending the day. Please do NOT PM me unless you have made your payment as names will only be confirmed once we have the full amount. Names of those who have showed interest will be posted and those who pay will have *Paid* written next to there names. I must stress guys, the 28th of March is a hard line. If we do not have the numbers by closing of that business day, I will contact John from WSID and cancel the event, so please get your money in ASAP. A couple further side notes: * If your car runs quicker then 11.99 you WILL need your ANDRA licence * If your car runs quicker then 10.99 on the day you will be pulled out for the remainder of the day, as the law requires you to have a roll cage (in which case it was an expensive run - Please note you will NOT be refunded) * If a pit crew wants to run your car, His/Her name will need to be put down on a seperate list with WSID and they will be charge $100 (WSID rules). * Due to insurance purposes, you cannot jump in and out of friends cars. All drivers for all cars need to be registered with the officials at WSID before the event. As far as track rules are concerned, (mainly for those who have not been before) normal Wed night rules apply, ie: * You will require either a drivers licence or an ANDRA licence * You will require your rego papers (current) * If the car is registered in another name, you will need a letter from that person allowing you to race the car on the date. Needs to be signed * Closed shoes must be worn (no sandles/thongs) * Long sleeve (t)shirts/pants. No shorts or short sleeve t shirts * Full face helmet ADDITIONAL NOTES/ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS To those of you who have asked questions in the prevoius threads, here are the answers (along with some extra info). 1) The day is limited to 1 driver, 2 crewmembers and 3 guests/spectators per entry however so long as we dont have more then 300 people total (going on the assumption there are 50 cars/drivers) we can add people to each others lists, ie, If for example one of you has 5 people coming already and i have nobody, you can ask to add any additional guests to my list. You yourself cannot have more then the specified number of people (if you guys aren't sure on this, PM me). This will need to be sorted out BEFORE the day, so if you have extras post up closer to the date and see if anybody can take some people on for you. WSID will provide me with 300 tickets which will be distributed to drivers and there crew members/guests. Please try and organise yourselves asap to ensure everything runs smoothly. 2) WSID will only allow cars that are NOT cable of ET's quicker then 11.00 seconds over the quater. Vehicles beyond/quicker then that are classed as Super Sedans and are not permitted. Sorry to those of you who have roll cages etc, unfortunately you will not be able to race on the day. 3) LUNCH IS INCLUDED for everybody which will consist of a bbq and soft drink. PLEASE NOTE....money for all your guest/pitcrew must be collected before your tickets are handed out. This will save confusion on the day. 4) Kids can come and they eat for free. There is a limit of 2 free kid meals per driver and we will need to know prior to the event to organise tickets. Additional kids will need to be paid for as per above (PS, kids are counted as either Pit crew or Spectators).

Regardless of who it was and whether or not it is the press playing on words/pictures, it creates bad blood between police and all car enthusiest. To be honest, I have had my share of being let off fines, so i really cant complain about police, but publicity like this will put them slightly on edge and rather then turning a blind eye to some minor infringement, they will throw the book at you.......I hope the police find the owner of this car and throw the book at both him and the passenger and personally, get this bloke off the road because he isnt doing anybody any favours !!!
