Not as I've seen. There a lot of look a like GTR's.

That sounds like a great idea, but us skyline boys need Widebody32 or else I'm the next most powerful (that has been tested), and I'd be lucky to make it in the Supra top 10 on the Dyno. Winner for the track, winner for the Dyno, winner for the strip and an overall winner.

Jezz some of those things were total jokes, if they wern't real. Goes to show, make sure your car looks in good condition else they might pick one someone else. I feel for you Stevie.

Two people get there early to rope of the section we want, bring marking tape etc (make sure we can hang the flag on something) One person to bring a tent (Federal one?) Everyone brings fold up chairs to sit in. Shell brings the SAU flag and something to hang it with. The skyline history printouts are excellent ideas I don't know how many people saw my quick printout I did up for my car at the wheels show, but it had some information on the car and some pics, it drew some interest as believe it or not not everyone knows what a skyline is let alone a GTR. Club event done... Now we just need a club.

Ha you have to keep the Supra on the track Ross to get a time :-) We should set the ground work earlier but talk about it at Marques. Probably set it for early 2008 midweek with at least 2 months warning to let people get the day off, save up and to get enough entrants. The Nissan Sports car club top 10 at Wakefield were getting times of 1.07-1.10. Mostly 200sx's but set up for real track work.

Just spoke to Wakefield, he is a break down of the approximate costings. Please note all pricing will go up next year particularly the track fee as Wakefield is resurfacing the track. Weekday track $2050 Insurance $800 Timing people and room $550 (Must have ambulance on standby) Ambulance $500 Marshal $250 (I can probably find someone that could do it a lot cheaper) That is $4150 for the day lets say $4500 with price increases Also there are costs for towing cars and using fire extinguishers etc on a case by case basis. That makes it 30 cars at $150 each just to break even if no one brakes down etc. Dependant on the cars and drivers 5-8 cars on the track gives plenty of room, sessions of about 15 mins each seemed to work. We could do something like invited club members $150, others $175. This encourages people to be members of clubs and brings more meaning to a club competition. What are the other car forums that we would like attending? As Wakefield is small and tight don't write off the clubs like MR2 and MX5. On the other hand when is the next SAU NSW Wakefield track day planned? Why plan it ourselves if someone is already doing one?

Already thought of that (great minds think a like), cheap as and it makes it seem so special. Probably a big one that the winning club keeps and returns each year and a small one for the actual winner. I've had a look over at the supra act forums and there is some interest, but not enougth for 20 cars. Might need to consider including some other clubs making it a bigger pool. FPV Falcon V HSV Commo V Skyline V Supra V 300zx v RX7 v Evo v WRX etc Maybe make it the battle for the best sports sedan.

FYI the Supra dyno day results. It seems thay have a lot more HP then us, so if we challange them it better be a track day not a dyno day.

No Probs, If anyone can make it on the day, just PM me I'll find someway to fit you in.

????

Well I just ordered one. I'll provide a report for road useage end of next month. Track usage will have to wait for awhile.

Seems to be some interest, particularly if NSW SAU were invited. So why doesn't someone call Gary at Wakefield to determine what we need and inform the rest of the group. The following is from wakefield website. As a guess we would want a Saturday or Sunday, with Tower Timing Room with 5X Fire Extinguishers with Flags and possibly a Track Marshal. Track Bookings Weekdays $2,050 per day Saturdays $3,600 Sundays $3,800 (and public holidays) Insurance cover is mandatory where the track booking sub-books others onto the circuit. (Please call for more information - speak to Garry Willmington directly) NOTE : There are mandatory requirements if timing is used (please call for more information) Options on Standby Ambulance $495 per day Water Truck $165 per day Control Tower $150 per day Tower Timing Room $55 per day Tower VIP Room $55 per day Fire Extinguishers $11 each per day + recharge $99 Crash Rescue Vehicle $330 per day Fire Rescue Vehicle $66 per Day Recovery Vehicle $165 per Day Or Recovery per Tow $33 Wood Flour & Brooms $16.50 per set Witches Hats $2.20 each per day Overnight Security Guard $33 per hour Flags (per set) $11 per day Tilt Tray Recovery $200 per day Track Marshal $250 per day

Well I found out about it the day I posted. I was a guest and seeing as I had nothing to do with the running or organising and did not know what the day would be like, I was not going to make it a big thing and gets lot of people attending due to this. I hope I made a good impression for next time and I've asked to be on the invite list for next time. Hey Frink, can you PM me some info on some street legal track tyres for the standard GTR rims, and what PSI to use around the track. I was more worried about wearing through the sidewalls than the tread at 34psi.

I need to look at a suspension set up, Everyone seems to recomend one place that Jim Richards go to but I can never remember the name. Is it Cris at Inline Steering & Suspension QBE or Capital Steering Fyshwick Thanks

I must point out it was during the warm up sessions and trying to be steady for the camera. aka why I let the evo 7 pass. The Ferrari was going fairly hard, it was probably 20+ years old, we must respect our elders 1st timed session I was thr 3rd quickest, only beaten by a full race car and some Ferrai with a V12 and slicks. I ended up running mid pack 2nd session before my brakes finally wore out. I'm about to purchase one of these http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t1....html&st=20 The front torque just would not engage when I wanted it. And these http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t158914.html with the EBC red pads most likely And these http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t177690.html Just becasue I'm doing the rotors at the same time Need a spare set of wheels and some semi slicks next.
