To little to late for AIR...There must be an alteria motive for BJ to be spending $$$$ on that place....Like him making money, otherwise wouldn't he have spent the $$$ previously? Something more sinister is going on maybe its the old BJ V's BR battle?? Anything you can do i can do better???

Important Notice - Adelaide

We have just been advised that nearly all of Adelaide Raceway has been resurfaced, but, when they were on the last section of the back straight the machinery sank through the track.

As a result we will have to cancel May/June in Adelaide.

The track will not be ready for several months as they have to dig out the whole of the back straight and rebuild it.

We apologise for this delay. We are trying to book alternate dates at Mallala and we will advise further when we have more information.

Alison and Marshall

Yeah, friend of mine got one of those fast track days as a gift (birthday), but they kept canceling. He got sick of it and thought "f**k it", told them to go stick it.

:D

Yeah, but no one here is going to be holding their breath just yet.

:woot:

Yeah true but atleast if Calder have brought it, It's a positive sign that something will happen :P

Maybe a mass email to the Calder Park people to find out what's happening and when you guys will see your track again !!

Jess: Bob Jane has owned both Calder Park and AIR for MANY years... and thus is the problem.

Bob is a tight ass and wont do anything properly with regards to upgrading/repairing facilities... that is why the circuit has been closed for so long. In the last few years (partly due to his divorce) Bob has spent as little as he could, and what he has spent has all been at Calder, NOTHING at AIR. (till now it seems).

But with this sink hole set back, wouldnt surprise me if he doesn't spend anything for another 12+ months.

Bob has never spent anything at AIR. That place has been deteriorating for over 10 years!

Signs half dangling over the track etc! :geek:

Oh well I just learnt something..I thought Calder where different people..

yes I know its been deteriating :) the last time I was there was when Jack Daniels brought there drag car out and did a massive burnout display down the strip was awesome and there was a massive crowd, Adelaide has had some awesome stuff that you dont see anywhere else :D

But they advertise for V8 laps and driver training at AIR :geek:

Edit: Been reading back..

well good ol'bob has left the work on the track to late and has had to relocate the next round of his AMRC (which means we miss out on seeing some decent racing cars).Knowing how half arsed the series is run, i'm surprised they aren't racing around the construction work on the track

      R32 goes out in right curves

      That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age

      Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.

      Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.

      R32 Gtst - Track Car

      If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.

      If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
