I'm keen for morning (cooler temps + prefer the clubman track) and am willing to help out.

Im keen to hit the tracks... but dont laugh at me for being lame please.. im sure of the average is

1:10.00 etc ill come in something like 7:59.00.

Insurance isnt covered though on the track.. ngghhhh..its my only car.. i dont want it dinged up from peeps hitting me in the bum cause im too slow.

Can i sit in someones car the first time to see what its like?

*begs*?

Chris, with the way Paul runs the day and the rules in place there is like a 0.0003% chance of you rubbing panels with another car...

The only damage you could possiblly do is yourself.

However id be happy to take you for a blat round as a passanger if your not comfortable at first.

i've never seen anyone connect with anyone out there so i wouldn't worry about that, just need to be aware of who is around you thats all.

hitting a wall is pretty unlikely unless you get really out of shape (or attempt to drift or sonething)

that said you are pretty much guaranteed to go off the track if you drive like you should

I may take you up on that offer just the first time so i can get my feet wet.

Thanks heaps col..

Its kinda like swimming the first time as a nipper.. you need someone to hold your hand (mind you i wont hold your hand.. prob just the jesus bar)

yea i was a bit scared the first time , and bit scared of wrecking my car. But like paul and others said. Just drive at your own pace. so i just had a go. After the 3rd lap i started to really feel alot more comfortable. Just takes some getting used to Driving in a helmet :happy:

Hi Paul,

woah.. the great Peter has spoken... i would definitely want to keep up with yours and Jason's times on the track :)

arent you selling the skyline and getting a x5 instead? :)

Ah,yes. I am trying my hardest to keep it as long as I can. But I can only hold off the inevitable for so long!!! 2 kids will have the affect. Second one due in April.

Have you done anything to the mighty CIVIC to make sure you will be able to keep up with Jason and I?? Just remember you haven't got the mighty GTR to back you up now. It will all come down to driver skill. :)

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
