Well done everyone, looks like you all had a ball.

Nice time Paul, 1:09.886 is a top effort, on slicks?.

Looks real dry down there but glad it didn't rain on the weekend.

Hoping to catch the next one, Eastern Creek? :)

awwwww, what a weekend! PHEW! I am soooo tired. I should have really gone to bed before 5am on Sunday morning :)

No hot water... no scrap that... NO WATER and no HEAT was bad, but we all made do.

I would like to thank everyone for putting up with my shit over the weekend. I know I was loud and annoying and boisterous, and my drunken boob flashes and random ass grabs didn't help the situation, so cheers to those who put up with it :D

In total, I took about 165 pics and about 8 videos. My computer is being a piece of shit atm, so when it's finished it's hissy fit, I will upload them for all to see. Got a great pic of you infront of Ando, Liz :D

Yes, it was by far the best RENEW's day we had, they had their sh!t together, we were on the track early and I did about 160 laps, a great day, well done RENEWS and SAU. TOP SHOW!

Im very happy with the 1.09 it was my goal for the day and I got there, I did crack a rotor I will post up some pics for a laugh! If any of the passangers were wondering what that shutter was, it was the rotor's I check twice but both times the crack was under the caliper. I drove home without using the brakes once, goto love that M7! Drove into UAS at 8.30am on Monday morning and drove out at 10am with DBA 4000 rotors, Im not sure if they will improve my times, but I can no longer say I have STD brakes and suspension, as I now have an upgrade, even if the upgrade was 7% the cost of the original Nissan part.

FYI $220 for DBA's $3300 GTR STD rotor.

Well done to all first timers, everyone drove hard but not stupid, and it shows with no broken cars or accidents, well done everyone top work, and I trust we will see you at the next day.

Ports, I clocked a 1.12 on my road tyres first up in the morning, slicked up and got down to 1.09, it was dry all day, and yes see you at EC.

Awesome stuff Paul!

It was no surprise to see your best lap as 1:09! I think someone else also mentioned the amount of grip your car has is phenominal!

You had a great impact on the day by showing the first timers how it's done, and giving constructive advice to people you had a ride with. Thank you very much for the advice!

I had to use my brakes (and my fire extinguisher!!) fairly heavily on the freeway! We had a truck towing a couple of motorbikes on a trailer in front of us, and the right hand wheel fell off the trailer. The hub slammed into the ground and sparks covered the entire road. A wheel and other assorted suspension gear almost took out my brother, but luckily caused no damage. The driver did amazingliy well to control the truck & trailer as it drifted sideways for a while and then came to a stop...

I ended up having to use my extinguisher to put out the fire which resulted!

Does anyone know whether its worth it to get the Quell(?) 1kg extinguisers recharged or is it cheaper just to buy a new one?

I think they are a one shot through away. Everyone was welcome, a great group of first timers and hopefully a new wave of trackers!

      I'll tell her I put in a new air filter on it, which, it would have anyway with the ITB's In the end she isn't to fussed, she spends lots of money on hair, nails, make-up and all the other "required" beauty products that women use, plus I grease the wheels with shiny gifts and holidays wherever and whenever I can She once questioned my car spending "budget", but after itemising everything she spends on herself, and what I spend on her, and the fact that I don't care if she does or doesn't wear make-up and fancy pants perfume, or requires new outfits for every wedding, funeral or anything else she deems worthy, and I'm quite happy to go "real" camping, instead of staying in hotels or jaunts on cruise ships, she decided not to press the subject on how I spend funds, and has never asked "how much did that cost" again, so a win to me And how often can you say you really get a win with the fairer sex? She is a good woman, and in the big picture, I'm really lucky.....that she hasn't killed me yet

      Will the clear coat dissolve the ink tho?? I thought about clear vinyl tape too. Thinking what to do haha. The one I have now is cracked in 1 spot, otherwise mint. Plus the MINES one is much thicker plastic material so its not flimsy at all.

      No. Go a different colour, and just trim it at an edge line. Even manufacturers do different panels different colours etc.

      I see no real downsides to ITB's, apart from the initial cost of my drive in drive out lifestyle, the "upsides" is they sound cool and would add lots of smiles I am willing to pay to play for the extra smiles I've spent the morning googling and youtubing the BBR ITB's, a "little" extra power and throttle response, but alot more dort, and really, I'm only really in it for the dort Who knows, after all this money is spent I might even make 150kwatw....LOL
