an idea of the some good roads/drives...but any local input woudl be greatly appreciated. :nyaanyaa:
I've done 2 of the 3 run by NDSOC, and I'm working on one for Oct/08.

If you want a couple of ideas, you MUST do Longford across to Bothwell via Poatina. The highway up to Swansea, IIRC. And Elephants Pass up to St Marys, and down the other side.

I have been down to Tassie 3 times with the WRX club on the bi-annual "Targa Rex". We did all the targa tasmania stages as well as spending a day at baskerville. The blind left hander at the top of the circuit is a butt puckering moment if you come up to it too quickly.

Quite simply, the best 8 days I have ever spent in a car.

Highly recommended.

Regards

Andrew

Excellent. We shall chat Greg :D

Like Greg, I've also done two of the NDSOC events over there, great fun and both tracks are great to drive on. One of the guys is organising a trip over there in February as well at the moment (the trip is not affiliated with the club), the two groups might pass each other haha.

OOOHHHH MMMYYYYYY GGGOOOOOOOOOD

Guys I arranged this trip to Tassie at the start of the year with the EVO boys some of you will know Scott = OZTME he will be able to reiterate to you how much fun this was and how good that track was also, Anyone even considering this event should not miss it.

Cheers

Ok, so over the next 3 weeks i will confirm the dates availabel to us in Feb. Please do not post up if you are not both genuinely interested and likely to attend.

A bit more preliminary info so that you can realistically assess your involvement...

Track entry, accom, Spirit of Tassie alone will be costing you $900. On top of this you have fuel and meals. From this we will be getting a small subsidy that will make aspects of the trip a little cheaper. But generally it will be a $1000 trip away. The social nights out and activities during the day are sure to be worth taking leave/holidays for. I post this because an approximate idea of numbers will help with discussion with venue managers and the Tassie Govt.

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
