dangerous_daveo Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Don't race it uses more petrol, and the cost of that will soon out weigh the fine anyway! But yeah, your age, most places want you to do a defensive driving course before an advanced (which teaches you skidcontrol) I'd strongly suggest you do both. Can help reduce your insureance as well in some cases, also looks good on your resume. If your tyres are speed rated to 140kmh... I dare say they aren't very good, I'd be saving up for some new ones that might be a little better. As everyones been saying, head out to willowbank, just get out there early to maximise your runs. Its $36 and includes a passenger. So 3 times heading out there is the cost of 3 speeding fines???

Revhead Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Damn you guys get ripped on insurance these days!! Full comp on my old 33 (turbo, exhaust but otherwise stock at the time) cost me $750 or so from memory, when I was 20. That was a while ago though *cry* Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/237324-in-need-of-some-basic-information-please/page/2/#findComment-4155412 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaqule Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 stop racing commodore drivers before you have an accident Hey Beau, I can I take you up on that one day? Ofcourse , I love showing off , just have to be wearing the right stuff and come up and say hello at QR or Archy (no pass at parklands) Beau it'd be great if you could show me how to drift. I was thinking of taking my car drifting and stuff but i know nothing about it and i don't want to damage my car. Also what is the skidpan? How much does it cost to take your car to these places? Skidpan is a barricaded carpark that is watersprayed at QR drift nights , to teach new drifters car control in a car and person safe environment for $50 look in events section for the next meeting And as above just come and see me at the track and I will be more then happy to take you out on the big track , my name is on the car it's a dark blue R32 skyline 4 door with a 34 front end blue tacked to the front!
