A few of the Valvebounce guys are heading out for some much needed practise (I haven't been since last year). Anyone keen to head out? There will be a few HSV's coming up with us so a perfect opportunity to show them up (I will be :D ). More than that its a great way to learn more about your driving ability and what your vehicle is capable of!

Are pulsars invited.. :yes:

Yep whatever you like. Last time I went out there were a fair few Pulsars out there ripping it up and having a ball.

Be good to see some Skylines out there and feel free to come and spectate it won't cost you anything. Don't worry too much about having it up to track spec, I still run standard shocks and brakes (with good pads :) ) and only put out 185rwkw.

Should be a good one as its starting to cool down a little now so its easier on the cars (especially turbos).

I run semis. Either my old Bridgestone RE540s or my new Toyo R888s. Both are pretty good on the track. The best I have tested so far are the Bridgestone RE55s though the Toyos aren't far behind. Falken also have a new tyre out but it had want to be alot better than the old RT215s. Semis arent really required but make a good couple of seconds difference.

Have been talking to Kris about another dyno day in May. Waiting to see what timeframe he has on getting the S15 back in action.

I think you meant to say Federals Luke :thumbsup:

I wont be coming anymore, I just realised that is the weekend that I start the first step of major modding to the 32.... And 4 days to work on it is to good to waste.

But once its done and Im fairly happy with it, its definatly going on the track!

Nice one! You can rock up whenever you like but I like to get there early so I can set up, i.e. get all the crap out of the car, set the tyres up etc. We will probably all cruise up so feel free to join us, will post up meet time closer to the date.

Just thought I would add, one of the fellas in the club has been contacted by Wakefield and this Thursday (the initial date) they are attempting to boost numbers and will have a film crew out there.

For those interested in going the cost of day (6th) will be huge fat $0 but you will need to let me know asap so I can put your name down. I will be heading out on the 6th AND again on the 15th. You will need to have a Wakefield Park License.

Found out some more info. The film crew are from today tonight doing a story on "Young drivers and the need for speed". I am one who cannot stand the stories but hopefully this will be a positive story... heres hoping.
