As the old saying goes: Don't let fear hold you back.

The caveat being: Don't confuse bravery with stupidity.

Anyway, it would be good to see some more times posted up for Wanneroo. Everyone else must think we are a bunch of keyboard warrior weiners for not posting anything.

So Paully,

How was the Down force with that wing lolololol, good to see the gay wing out and about, you have been hiding that in the closest for too long and glad you come out with it :no:

Looks like it was fun, have to come out next to time.....

Great...more Skylines to give me grief, mind you I did get to pass two of you's :O

It was good to see such support from the skyline crowd and nearly half of the drivers were 1st timers which is great to see more people getting involved. Once the time grouping gets sorted it'll be even better :)

i went and had a look for a hour or so and looked like great fun, ill more than likely get the stagea out onto the track and see how the heavy thing goes lol. Paul your car sounds great and bobbos gtr is f**kin crazyy :O

what sort of tyres and brake calipers/pads were u using Paul? and did u have any issues with brake fade?

i just hope my brakes are up to the task with the 1650kg boat i got, might need to upgrade the pads to something more track friendly :)

Brad, I'm running Hawk race pads, RDA sloted rotors, and braided brake lines, and I was noticing some fade, but was able to last 3 hot laps ok.

yer sounds like i might be ok then, what calipers do u have? gtst or brembos?

i got brembos, dba 5000 rotors, stock brembo pads and braided brake lines so maybe just a pad change as i cant see the stock pads being much good for track, though i havent tried them much yet to see.

haha how is the bonnet scoop doing feeding air to that top mount? hahahaha

This event was awesome. Having an instructor drive your car can only be described as an 'experience'. I would pay the $150 for just those laps.

Good pics Dan, not bad for a first attempt.

    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
    • As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.
    • but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
    • Absolutely. Look very closely at the photo (of yours) that I took my second snip of. See how the sill is thicker material right behind the pinchweld, where the two notches are? That is the factory reinforced area for lifting. That pad is supposed to carry the weight. The factory jack (go look at it, and how it interfaces with the car at the pinchweld) shows you exactly how the load is carried from the car to the jack to the ground.
