I was thinking your place would be good for post race punch up and beer fest. any scores not settled on track can be dealt with the old fashioned gentlemans way. with a glassing.

I love that pic on the previous page that you posted John.

I remember that day.

In the pic I can see my fellow driver trainer Benny in the silly seat with Jason driving his GTR.

At this stage Benny has fire coming through the floor and trying to burn his feet :P and I think he may have been telling Jason....can't remember exactly what though :cool:

lol. jason's car rocks. It once melted my shoes to the floor in the passenger seat. great fun though.

Was that Ben in there, he is game. Took three fire extinguishers to put this one out. I would never get in a car at the track with this crazy driver.

RE Dave Loftus I think he could be a dark horse ring in that might thump us all. He certainly knows how to set up a car and vast experience and good driver. More power and going on a diet hey. I migth get that front diff installed.

don't really know how Loftus could ever be called a dark horse, if I was putting money on someone it would be him.

lap record of 1:15.5 in restricted IPRA trim, set in race conditions and on 048's is pretty impressive. He could turn up in that spec on better rubber and knock a couple of seconds off.

nathen i never told you i had retreads so stop talking shit and i will see you at the track big month

Jason, As I explained to you on the phone after you had a go at me I NEVER said anything about retreads I said you were on rubbish semi slicks. NEVER did I mention re-treads. Please read what I have said next time before you ring and abuse me. >_<

Re Lofty I meant no been in our scene as such, but obviously will be.

Yep some big cars, big ego's will be turning up. At least we won't be fitting for the same corners, so should be tidy and only bruised ego's.

Go Jason have a go.

But its not a race. Everybody will be racing the clock so there wont be any door to door racing. People show each other lots of respect with space to race and pass. Nobody wants to get held up on a good lap so the format lends itself to a wide cross section of cars and drivers. Give it a go!

ah, fair enough. I guess he's probably less known in these circles.

certainly are some fast and interesting car/driver pairings in open class. If I had any confidence in my CA18DET Datto giving me some value for my entry money instead of an early return to the trailer, I'd have EOI'd that instead of the Supra road car. wouldn't have been in the running outright, but would have liked to see how she stacked up against some of the rwds. But I'll be there with the Supra in Clubman having some fun and a front row seat to see these Open class weapons.

RB26 S14 John :D Its not getting caged so it wont be getting entered. I would have taken it out just for a thrash and an excuse to get it round corners but the lack of roll cage rules me out straight away.

Roy, not entirely aware of the program but knowing some seasoned racers will be out on the track i am not about to get in their way. I have literally about 30 minutes of circuit time under my belt and even that was many years ago. And even if it was individuals who had the track entirely to themselves the lack of roll cage rules me out :D

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      Cleaning my wheels 😍

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!

      Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.

      Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
