It would be a fairly cheap trackday, won't chew up any tyres or brakes and prob only use half as much fuel.

its just so wet i dont know how they can have a good run.this kind of weather would be good for things like targa and track training for wet weather conditions.

I think you'll find that most people heading out are the people who do want to learn a few things.. and with the guys from Ian Luff Motivation there to help you out, it'd be a killer day.

still too many people for me.

BTW, when I enquired through Ian Luff, the cost was $195.. not $220. Corinne, can you confirm what the difference is for?

What an interesting day!

had 4 sessions out there, 3 in the rain!

2 sessions were quite heavy and was getting a bit dicey out there.

Learnt alot more about car control, lines, etc in the wet, hopefully that can help me in the dry as its easier in the dry!

Had some fun from main straight into and out of turn 1 - some nice drifting

and also turns 2 and 3 were linked a few times!

1 time I had a bit too much pace and came off into the mud at around 110km which was fun! My window was down so theres mud everywhere in the car!

Unfort though there were two accidents.

:P

From here there was me, Corinne, Brad, Brendan turned up to spectate and who else? Sorry for forgetting!

Was a good day, some real good cars..

GTRs, evo's sti's, a ford GT40 replica, datto 1200 with CA18 which haulled arse!

Liz, there were 3 groups 6-8 in each - sometimes only 4

plenty of room and plenty of track :laugh:

you missed out!

Good day to learn how to drive!

Boz really helped me heaps especially in the wet. I lol'ed and freaked out when he pulled the handbrake up on me. Haha

Very very slippery out there and unfortunately we had a couple of mishaps but lets not talk of that.

All and all besides the weather it was a good day to learn how to control the car in such harsh conditions and you realise how easy it is for the car to slip out in the wet.

Cheers!

Boz is definately the master

Why not talk about the mishaps.. wouldn't it be better to all learn from the mistakes out ther rather than to keep it hush hush?

      If you have a Nissan from Japan and model year is from 2016 to 2024, just say you have an Infiniti Q50 4 doors... Why are telling you have an import?

      Rb25det s1 igniter pin out

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's definitely not firing order. But I think it should also be made clear that the output that gets fired is the one that corresponds to the input that was switched at the ECU. So you could scramble them up totally so that the numbers meant nothing, and so long as you had the inputs and outputs matched up, you'd be fine. The reason I make that point is that blanket statements about what it is supposed to be don't always hold out in a world where there's been 30 years for the wiring to have been stuffed with.

      Rb25det s1 igniter pin out

      By EndZee · Posted

      Hello, im asking about this guy - coil igniter on rb25det series 1 r33 s1 engine. I need to know if pins on coil side indicate coils itself from 1-6 or it’s firing order so pin nr1 goes to 1st fired spark plug:(1pin-1firing spark, 2pin-5order firing spark, 3-3, 4-6, 5-2, 6-4…)   photo: https://files.fm/f/k9pdug38uq

      Powder coat on mating surface

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Remove it. Certainly from the hub face. I'm not in love with leaving it on the wheel assembly surface either - but if it is common to do so, then....maybe fair enough. It's not difficult. Just time consuming. For the hub face you just need a large enough block and suitable grades of abrasive paper to get it off flat. The same would be true of the assembly face. Just more time consuming, probably needing a lot more care. It's defo going to be easier just to assemble the wheels as is, seal them up, and check them periodically to see if there's any movement or loosening of the fasteners, than it will be to remove it though.

      Powder coat on mating surface

      By dyl33 · Posted

      Hello, I got my wheels powder coated and they've powder coated bloody everything the mating surface and hub (even told them not to lol) anyway should I leave it or remove it. (Would be very hard) I've searched a lot and lots of powder coaters don't mask the mating surface but do mask the hub surface. How bad it powder coat on the mating surface or hub? My question is what should I do?
