V8's To Get Olympic Park Street Circuit
Sinful replied to Black Widow's topic in Motorsport Discussion & Builds
I can understand it closing, but it should be replaced bigger and better!!! All the race tracks are in desperate need of funds and upgrades! Why is Mt Panorama so expensive to hire? Do they want to keep it V8 exclusive? Aww Not cool Huh I got fire up and wrote an email to the radio station! What really needs to happen is the motorsport and car club communitys need to do something about this sort of stuff and stand up and get heard! It's always us little guys that lose out:/ -

Yep, but now that I have thought about this, why cant the government replace Oran Park instead of building a street circuit! -
V8's To Get Olympic Park Street Circuit

Well I heard on Nova this morning that this is going ahead and starting next year. -
LOL should tell Roy that!
-
Ask your dad to get you some defensive driving lesson if he reckon's you wont be able to handle a turbo...Heslo was looking at doing this event later this year.. There great fun and you learn how to handle a car from experts at the same time!

Thanks Harry!! Was great fun and worth the 400km trip and freezing cold to do 3mins worth of racing Yeah I just did my third run when it started to rain and choose to put the car on the trailer as was slippery enough with out the hail That's a great time Michele I wanted to try and get into the "20's" will next time and will try out some soft semi slicks as well. I was on the limit of the street tyres! I can't do August as I have a skidpan event on at EC Will try Nov (if I dont do dutton rally) and get Chubbs to come with me..The one in December is the speed weekend! Great Pics, will put up my in car footage tonite, I only filmed one run as I had trouble with the camera Wonder if there are any pics of my car floating around, I did a big flame on my second run up the top of the hill

OMG what an eventful weekend! I think I am hooked on hillclimbs now! The car went really well, I only got 3 runs in before it started to hail and rain.. I did a 32.96 on street tyres and we were all having issues with traction. Greg (Stretch) did a 29.53 and he was having traction issues as well Michelle (Ladybytes) was there as well in her open wheeler but not sure what times she was getting! That thing sounds tough coming up the hill!! I got some good practices on launching the car and by the third run had them nailed. I think I might of gassed the guy out that chocks your wheel for you getting ready for my launch! You were right Harry it's a pretty steep hill you start on..I think I need a switch that changed from 2wd to 4wd so I can do a burn out before the start line! Will definately be doing that event again, I found it exciting and a bit of an adrenalin rush cause there are walls all around you! Bring on December!
-
hmm you could be right cause the venue is "The Quarry" Mt Panorama Nice Vid Zennon, had good control
-
What's a khanacross?
-
haha sif you would take the GTR back over the EVO TJ Glad to hear your getting into it over there..can we see more pics? Hotwire have you entered any of the motorkhana's this year ? I know the GSR evo club put them on regulary in SA and usually post the upcoming events on SAU! That timeattack coming up at Mallala looks the goods
-
Not very - Just standard mods really exhaust,catch can, pod filters (when on the track) power fc and apexi suspension, had the engine out last month for a freshen up and to see what it was like inside I put out around 280kws at 1bar, It's enough for me at the moment cause I want to learn how to the drive the car to it's full extent before adding more power to the mix!
-
Good Luck Snowy with the WA round this weekend!!!!
-
Cool, Thanks Harry!! I compete in supersprints pretty regulary, but havent done any bathurst ones yet! I'm really keen to try it out as your opion is exactly what I have heard from everyone else
-
WHAT THE!!!! Your kidding aren't ya Paul, TGIF is tomorrow!!
-
Ok I am probably a noob with this question but...are you suggesting taking the drag car to bathurst? I thought with your last achivement and superlap you would be contemplating "converting" twoogle to a circuit car? Or do you have two GTR's one drag one circuit already?? I just seen that bathurst have a supersprint starting at Conrod Straight finishing at Pit Straight. Would that be from Forest elbow to start/finish?
-
I brought a "cheap" GTR got it checked out by a mate (mechanic) who actually knew the car at the time.. I knew what I could be getting my self into buying a GTR $5k rebuild if it breaks I made sure the engine and running gear checked out, mine isn't built and it looks great inside and still going strong, the reason mine was cheap was because of the bad paintwork. But I didnt mind cause I always going to get it resprayed..and now have and gone white so look's a later model R32 Get the engine and running gear fully checked out and compression tested..Also find out where the car has been tuned if you can and have a chat to the tuner
-
If SA started there club this idea would be perfect for end of year get together/Christmas Party
-
I would love to have a rotary for a race car!! It's on the list to own one day or is that a bucket list
-
haha sif, you'll be fine!! So you're going to enter speedweekend in December?
-
haha yeah not the best I am afraid but have taken the 18's off and now just run the 16's cheaper for the moment Thanks Harry, For my first time will just turn up and have some fun If I am having problem's can tweak it on the day.. All a learning curve for me this year
-
Good point Paul - I would like to know about setup as well..I can't go all out as my GTR is a daily driver still for the moment But I do have a stupid amount of negative camber on the front..It works on the track for me but not on the general road
-
Maybe I should of started a new thread but it's kind of the same thing I will be doing the ESSES this weekend I hope the weather fine's up, will be really scary if doing it in the wet for my first time I like both your datto's Harry..Such cool little car! I hope to get a spot at the speed weekend in Dec and wanted to get some practice in before then Thanks for your input guy's, feeling a little more confident and going on 18inch street tyres didn't have a clue that most have done this event already! I will be retuning the car tomorrow night as well been a bit funny since putting the engine back in and I need more power in a straight line (but I really need bigger turbo's ). See how me and the car goes. *excited*
