Hey guys/girls,

A few guys at work are thinkin of organising a track day. and we were thinking if we can get enough people there we can get the track for the day? Hopefully some of you guys are interested because it would be great to finally meet you guys. If your interested obviously either post here or pm me (either way) and i'll relay it to the guys here.

At this stage we're not sure of the date but we were thinking it would be heaps easier to get the track for the day rather than pay the $110+ each

Costs for renting the whole track for a day are $3500 + other expenses so out the question...so..

Dates available for the "Speed off the streets" days are :

1st, 5th, 7th, 14th, 18th, 21st, 25th & 28th FEB

These will be posted under Calendar shortly on their site http://wakefieldpark.com.au

Costs for these type of days are : $110 per person (not per vehicle) driving on the track

$50-55 Australian Autosport Alliance licence (annually)

$20 Helmet hire from track + $50 deposit

Please come back to me in the next couple of days as to which days(s) in February will suit each of you.

From this we can plan a day and go forward.

Put me down as interested x 2 and put a link to this thread in the ACT section as well.

Also... check out the ACT thread, we're holding a timed Skyline vs Supra track day at Wakefield after Easter (date TBC) for approx $150 which isn't bad for a timed day as well as the added fun of whipping Supra butt and showing them what the Skylines are made of :( - put your name down in the ACT thread if your interested in Skyline vs Supra and you can still use the Feb track day for practice ;) We need EOI's as well so we know its viable.

And Jackie, is he the driver for the civic in Improved production or similar class/series?

Yep, Jacky Yick is one of the Pro Concept / Seeco Racing drivers. He won the 2007 NSW IPRA's Under 2.0L class in a 1.6L Civic.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
