There are other things over in W.A. as well. There is the sprint and autotest championships at AHG near the airport. http://www.dtec.com.au/mc-motorsport/car-clubs.htm Other than Wanaroo there is also the other track down at Collie. http://www.motoringsouthwest.org.au/ I'll be down there for the sprint day on July 1st with a bunch of other blokes into motorsport. You also have a stack of great hill climbs. Jacks Hill Climb, Mt Ommanny both of which make up part of the Speed Event Series that runs every year. http://www.speedeventseries.com/ And finally - here is a good resource list of what is coming up. http://www.driveline.net.au/events.php

Check out the Swift. I bet you like it.

I'd get the Suzuki Swift Sport. They are a great little car.

Turn 1 at Winton is harmless. The back of Sandown however doesn't often end in smiles.

LOL - I bet Chris is dying to give you the keys at Sandown now.

I think you are missing one important point here. As a sport Drifting is ghey. No no - seriously it is. And right now it's full of people deciding what is a drift and what is a power slide (like who cares seriously). Don't get me wrong sliding around in a car is a HELL of a lot of fun - but as a sport it has a major flaw. Same with other sports like synchronized swimming, figure skating, that stupid sport where they get horses walking in funny ways, etc - the problem with drifting is that whilst there are fundimental rules as to what makes a good drift the final result still comes down to someones opinion rather than any specific fact. Any sport IMO that is based around a judges decision is highly overated. Americans seem to like them but then they like baseball. So do the Japanese for that matter. Most people who love cars and motorsport that I know that don't like drift, don't like it for this simple reason. If the rules get changed and there are specific MEASURED points for things like angle and speed then more people like me would be interested. Until then the sport is ghey.

You may have damaged one of the wheel sensors which will bring those lights on.

http://www.wascc.com.au/ - look at the events Calander and it is just listed as a tuning day. Buggered if I know what's needed for one of those - Blaise has orgnaised it. I just have to rock up and drive

Spoke to Uncle Jeff today and he said he'll come down for it. So Nissan v Mitz is on

Tops. The days are both L2S CAMS days I believe so you'll need a basic CAMS license and the usual fire extinguisher, helmet, long sleeves etc. This is what I'll be driving over there.

Yeah I was at Winton on Saturday and in the few laps I did get out I never got one right. It was being a lot more tricky than I remember it being.

Nice work by Juz beating Handbags too. And lets not hear any weak excuses about timing errors Adz.

Dunno. No real boost til 6,000rpm.

Hope you all had fun.

Looking at the entry list Bris there is 8 GTR's and 0 RWD skylines. They have all gone on strike or something. So just come in the bullet and push it around for a lap and get yourself a round win trophy.

My car is standard. Stock cams, stock dumps, stock airbox, street legal exhaust, no EBC, still has air con, dvd player, all the original seats. It's just a bit of suspension and brake work and a PnP ECU with a bit of tuning. That's standard

Old cars break down. So do Lambo's. (and GT-R's for that matter)

Ok Here is my list. The daily driver / family / trip to the snow car. Audi RS4 Avant The weekend car for trips to Buxton. Ferrari 599 GTB (Hamann version if we are allowed to be stupid) Car 3 is my track car. If this is allowed to break the rules then I'd get a Koenigsegg CCX. I love the in car adjustability of ride height, damper and roll bars. It is just a purpose built speed machine but it isn't sanitised. If that is not allowed I'd take a 997 GT3RS right now.

They have a UTQG of 0. lol. Mark Webber drives around with grooves in his tyres but you don't call them street tyres. They are slicks.

Kennedy has stripped his car and is running slicks so we are no longer "competing" against him as such. It is no longer a street car.

You obviously haven't driven one!

You realise Aaron that this will be the 1st time we have actually been on the track together with working cars? Other than your original trip to PI when the car was basically stock. So it's the first real 05 v 06 SAU Club Champion showdown.

http://www.cams.com.au/content.asp?PageID=Clubs and look at all the different club sites to see what is on when. Usually if I want to go somewhere I check the following club calanders other than ours/wrx: AROCV Maserati FPV XR / HSV Clubs (run events together - am doing Winton with them this Saturday) HSCC PIARC (what we did on the weekend. Next one is Oct 20/21) MSCA But Scotsman and I did keep the weekend a little on the low down as we just wanted a quiet settle in run before our public return.

Tell me why you'd need to tow #2 Kev? It drives fine by itself!

Stig, Aaron, Scotsman, Golgo, Dances with Fences, The Vag, Nige and Riverdance all came up to drive at EC. A couple of others drove up just for the social aspect too. Half the fun of a road trip is the drive But Barron went limp recently with a trip to Shepparton so the extra distance to the Island it asking a bit much.
