Still good for one track day at least. Not rated in ks but laps if anything. Once warmed up slicks are nice and sticky and not as frustrating not being able to turn in or accelerate as much as you would like on corners.

By the way for those participating and having lunch we have a couple of cases of the mighty V as well as other drinks. Yes we know the Skyline guys live on the stuff. But lets not make it a V topic just letting you know DON'T pannick it will be there.

Maybe my zed might go faster if I threw some down my throat.

Slicks eh, interesting !

How cheap and how used ? (As in approx how many km or laps would I get at EC with no drifting doing 2:00 laptimes?).

To get RE540 Semi-slicks in 225/60/15 it was going to be like $290ea.

:bahaha: Benm gets the trackday bug and goes straight for cheater tyres!

See y'all there, cant wait to give the gibson car a good run around :P

I'll even go easy on your Z john, since you are the host :D

trackday bug yes, cheater no.

Once i have my brakes sorted out (got some proper fluid now and also need to learn how to use them better) im expecting about 3-4sec a lap quicker just from that. With a better set of tyres im hoping for another 5+ sec quicker.

Won't be long and i'll be under 2mins at EC, probably early next year.

John.... the last two UAS days have been a week after a Motoconcepts day and the old girl has not been able to back up after the day at Eastern.....blown this/hammered that:(

Oh well there is always next year at Wakefield! Ill still be along to spectate and enjoy the day.

Thanks for putting on these days , and supporting the scene.;)

I have a mate who wants to come have a look, he has two sons (5 & 10 YO or something like that). IS it OK to bring kids ? I'd imagine it would be OK behind the fence but not in the pits.. I haven't been to Oran for ages so I can't recall what it's like there.

Super keen to come but am a little uneducated on how to get to Oran Park!! Was wondering if anyone from around my area (Chatswood) was going....*cough* Brendan, Dino, Nick etc *cough* and if i could follow them out there!!

    • Do you think the guys in Penrith are install the E85 Kit?
    • Thanks Pac!   I will reach out to them!
    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
