Yes, it was an awesome day! perfect weather, lots of runs, couldn't ask for more.

Right at the end (about 4ish) on the entry to turn 1, my gearbox went bang! I was left with only 5th gear and had to drive like that back home.

Funny thing is that after a while I could use 3rd and 4th gear as well, so lucky for the drive back to Adelaide.

Now looking for a 25 box, if anyone has one laying around let me know.

Big thanks to Flick for recruiting a camera man (girl actually) at the last minute, whose name escapes me right now, thanks to her too, havent had a chance to have a proper look at the footage but looks good so far.

Luke, I saw a few nice tandems runs with the other white 31, looking good mate.

Cheers

Would have like to be out there but a couple of days before the AIR practice day met with a wall on the freeway and car was written off..... PFC and controller for sale, gauge and pillar mount for sale, bucket seats for sale etc

ANyone know where to get a cheap drift pig from??? Im just getting around in a an old 86 celica at the moment that cost $600 --> i dont think it is going to hold out for too long.

Anyone want to buy some cheap parts?? Pick up in adelaide only!!!!

haha thats awesome, Well mel the camera girl is very umm persuasive and managed to talk to security and they let us around in front of the fences, right behind the wall of the track - like where all the pro photographers stand, so we stood at the end and filmed as u came towards us, made for some wicked footage huh!

Better than being in the stand thats for sure! Was fun watching cars coming straight at us!

I was on the other side of the fence.

LOL you waved at me a few times down near the S's onto the front straight. Dont no if u remember.

And I saw Flick and her mates around but was busy trying to film my mates and try to get footage of the gu yin the blue ceffy that hit the wall.

Great work richo, your advancing every time u go out.

Im going out next prac on the 15th. I just need track time. Sick of doing stupid shit on the street.

      Thoughts on this .. G35-1050 pulsar result

      Nope, still smaller rear, put on the 4inch exhaust and picked up power everywhere, ended up just shy of 800rwhp.   Didn't seem to be hitting any walls either, so perhaps could have pushed for more but all maybes and the fish that got away etc etc.

      This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.

      Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛

      Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it
