    Ultrasonics

    find some sercurity footage and show it to your doctor
  2. I think it's Why make the 33 more whale than it already is?
  3. I know what you mean, obviously mixing fast with slow is a recipe for disaster and it pressures new drivers to go beyond their limit... BUT, if they did split the groups it would be a whole lot more work and admin (most likely needing to book before hand so they can sort numbers, or sort them on the day which would take a while and need extra staff) which would put the price up of the day which is part of why it's so great. There aren't really any major accidents and probably no more than any other track day. When you're at a bike track day at philip island they state that stats mean that one in 10 people will crash on the day. It's been true so far that I've been attending with all safer methods included and the $250 price tag. If people could follow the rules then it would be all good really... but they don't. Oh well! On another note, I'm currently watching Speedweek at Winton, they're going super fast!
  4. ROFL, yup I'm no 'Chad'.. Decided that pressuming that all males on here aren't sexist themselves would be a bad idea was indeed sleepy at the time.
  5. I got up to 170, then stopped looking
  6. 2 of those people were very experienced actually... I confronted one of them as he overtook me on the outside half on the dirt on the back straight... then spun out infront of me. Experience doesn't mean you're safe. Most of the people on the track are 'experienced' but you're not going to get away from accidents, that is the nature of the track. If you don't want to be around people pushing 100% (or more) or you cant afford to lose a car then don't drive on the track.
  7. I had three people spin out right in front of me causing yellow lights... seemed more chaos than last time, some of them were pretty close! But for $30 you know the track is going to be crammed so you have to expect the lights.
  8. Hahaha.. there you go! Cruising as a group is always more fun. Yeah the R34 is good, but the power's all up high... I was pulling most of the cars on the straight (which is actually quite surprising when you see some of the cars out there) but anything around 3000 rpm and below is a bit gutless and a lot of the corners on that track are inbetween 2nd (pinging) and 3rd (around 3k) so it's hard to choose. Had the tyres on 32 on the first round which was really floaty but changed them to 36 and it made a massive difference. Just need to find a way to get more bottom end power and maybe some grippier tyres. Actually just considering to buy a GTR
  9. Sleepy post.

    Spotted 'MZVTEC' in a pretty stock looking maroon integra tonight
  11. I think I remember you... not sure though... I had a dark club sport inbetween me and my possie when we were heading to Winton in the morning, it did a little 'squeaky' turning off the off ramp. Was that you? Anyway, you should have said hello. Same with you Jason! I didn't even get to see the helmet >.< Was much more awesome fun to know a few more people this time, makes the day heaps more worth it MY KIDNEYS ARE KILLING ME!!!!! So are my legs... arrrrrgh! Damn bumps!
  12. Had an uneventful ride home. Was an awesome day indeed! Ryan was pushing so hard on his tyres that his front LHS tyre literally had chunks torn out of the edge! Was very tempted to do the sprint comp tomorrow. It definitely shows you what areas your car is lacking in when you're pushing it that hard. Was good to see everyone, until next time
  13. ROFL, yeah I'd have to agree, I despise smoking but I wouldn't ban it all together, a car is your property so you should be able to choose if you smoke in it or not, althought they can still be distracting. As for smoking around minors, I think that should be banned everywhere. Unfortunately that's way too difficult but you'd hope that adults would have a teeny bit of respect for the health of children. Grrrr >.< I try not to do anything in my car except drive. So far it's worked pretty well when sticky situations come along.
  14. That pretty much means clear for Winton, but I don't think they will stop it anyway if it rains.
  15. lol, bankruptcy ftw
  16. Bring seats, I wouldn't worry about booking a garage... there are garages that you pay for then there are undercover 'car port' areas that are free then there are open spaces. The free undercover areas should be fine and it's only saying a couple of showers for the day (I'm guessing those showers wont be in Winton).
  17. Damn, yeah it's good you and her are ok. When I got hit by a car on my bike I had insurance but I still went through a lawyer and it worked out fine. That is an option. Otherwise if she is willing to cooperate there might be another way to claim without having insurance. 3 party won't apply to you in this case, only her (unless it was your fault?) so it should all be through her end. Other than that, I would recommend getting 3rd party anyway... you know... with all those 100 thousand dollar mercedes on the road and your car doesn't have abs O_O Up to you but it's a high risk without it. (and I'm not trying to 'tell you so' just worried for the chance that you might have bad luck one day)
  18. Who cares if it's turbo or not. Skylines are awesome. Don't squabble when you're on the same team! I would really like to drive one actually... low down power and torque can be very fun
  19. ^Sure thang! Adam, even if you don't have a helmet, there are passanger groups, if someone can lend theirs to you and you might get a ride in one of our cars Oh, and I might like to try going as passanger in a few cars too, apparantly it's scary
  20. Half of the cops don't even know what GTR means, doh!

    I had a crazy spotting arvo! 5.10: Silver S2 R33 GTST as I entered Ring Road off Sharps road heading Greeny bound, of which we waved at each other 5.11: Red R31, have seen before with 31Club sticker on it 5.13: Silver S1 R33 GTST 5.28: Black R33 GTST four door All on the Ring Road... pretty common! And that's it
  22. My tank is a bit lopsided... I get about 300ks from the first half and only 200ks from the second half.

    In Between Cars

    Go the civic. I had a hatch in reliable condition that was bought at 3k and sold at 3k 8 months later. Hondas have a good rep.
  24. Cool, Ryan and I will meet you guys at the Maccas then
  25. I think you've pretty much got it covered Aaron, I might stay in Shepparton and get some beauty sleep but please please come and say hi, will be there with the white R34 GTT and white Subi B4, I most likely won't recognise anyone so you better all recognise me!
