still, not a bad game to practice on....shame supercar is the only thing you can drive on ec and oran park. at least at bathurst a range of cars is available.

prank, i'm happy to pass on bad habits, I think I've got a few passenger laps booked!

Myself Knat and 3 other guys from work organise a LAN game of V8 Pro Race Driver usually about every 3rd friday night (from 8pm-4am) absolutely awesome when playing against 5 workmates.

We actually find for the best LAN Racing the Mini Cooper-S is great around bathurst. I can do faster laptimes with them than using a 600hp Stockcar.

Ok people... don't forget that we need to be at the track NO LATER than 8am but preferably by 7:30am.

I'll aim to set up shop at garage 31-34 so look for me in that area.

Debriefing will be as usual at the Cricketers Arms from approximately when you get sick of driving to when you get sick of talking shit and/or bragging about how you smashed that manaro when you did your hot lap of 1:34.893 with other skyline drivers.

Looking forward to it.

Dan.

Hey Talej, particularly if you've not been before, come along and watch / passenger before you head out as a driver.

There's another day on 24/7 (yes, it was a calendar date before it became a saying :P ) that you can drive at!

Im a new meber to SAU and will probably come out to watch. i have never been before though so have some simple questions. Even though im not driving im still allowed into the garage area and so on?

What time does it finish? as i may not be able to make it until maybe 9 or 9:30.

and

is it easy to find the area where all you guys will be?

looks like the gtr wont make it this time (need a new 255/40/17*2)

Your welcomed to come into the pits. Just observe the general rules

No smoking

Keep an eye out for cars entering/exiting pitlane

face the race track

It finishes at 5pm

Hey Pete if your after a set of 235/45/17s then i have 2 your welcome to. They are worn (Well past the indicators, but still visible tread) and even tyre wear so no canvas etc. With me driving easily 1-2 days at the track left in them.

... with you driving, i dont know, but welcome to try.

Ok,

Only 5 days to go.

How to get to the pits

Dirve along M4 and exit at either Reservoir rd or Wallgrove rd and head to the GWH.

From the GWH follow the signs to Eastern Creek Raceway (watch for radiar in this area... the cops love to set one up when there is a track day on).

Turn right at the round about when Eastern Creeck (Gate 1) is straight in front of you.

Follow this road ALLLLL the way around to the back of the circuit to Gate 7 Competitors entry (Observe speeds as I have seen cops on this entry road also and yes it is classified as a public road).

From there just keep driving untill you find the bunch of Skylines (or park near garages 31,32,33,34).

Drivers will get a pit garage to put all there gear in.

Spectator and passengers cars can be parked at the back of the pit garages (make sure you park in the yellow marked bays only).

My number is 0414 940 938 if you are having difficulties.

Pete,

I have some tyres that you originally had if ya want them. 235/45/17's I think.

URMINE

Julian & Urmine,

Bring you gear and money guys, I think Kinks said that he wasn't gonna do this on (just bring his camera) and I think I might just go out for passenger laps and try to maybe grab a session on the end if a few guys have gone early. I should be able to get Julian on track and I would imagine I should be able to get Urmine out there too.

Look forward to seeing you all there,

Dan.

No rain just cloudy (my dad is in the weather business and i already asked him about this) we live about 15-20mins west of EC.

If it rains tho (and my dad is wrong) im happy for you all to submit his email address to spam lists :P

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
