This track day is open to alot of other clubs..I heard about it through SSCC..

So wouldnt be surprised if all the spots are taken :P

Have to get in quick with these types of events

i emailed terry the other day and he told me there were no spots left.....what's the story?

Yeah all spots gone so its $200 for the day for those that got in.!! $200 for a open day is a bargain.

If you missed out come down for a free joy ride.

No cash has left my hands yet, Need some stuff done to the car and watching for the weather, I wont run at a 30Deg + day.

Bonks, will pop out at a minimum, but I am planning to drive.

Excellent - look forward to seeing you!

If it rains I will be there pay my $200 and take the place of the fags that are scared of a little wet weather. Either way I will be out on the day. I hope to do my thing and pay for a slot once the first car pops or looses it.

  • 2 weeks later...

Oh I WISH my car was going... would come down for the day anyway, but the boss is away and it's overtime for me in the morning... next one that is on someone please RING ME!!!!

2002 reunion, and I'm gonna miss it. :P

LOL, I can't believe it... B-man might even be there. :thumbsup:

Bonkers, fatz, kero, OZ, there is not too many missing.

And the original stomping ground... shame EC hate drifting hey Fatz...

Top Gear crew will be filming before and after on the day - so maybe i will pick up the shitter pete - they would lovethat kind of shit. :devil:

10) We understand that the Top Gear guys will be on track up to 9AM and after 5PM doing filming. If they hang around please be nice to them as we may get some publicity for club level motorsport. If they sign on you will be permitted to take them as passengers. Who knows, you could end up a TV Star.
1) We have a full field of 50 cars now that those who have dropped out are replaced with those on standby.

2) Please make sure you bring the completed forms with you AND your CAMS license plus club member card. They should both be current. Some folks forget to insert the new bits.

3) Passengers only need to have filled in and signed the form, plus have the right helmet and clothes to get an armband from us at Garage 50. They should see Val Stewart, she is the pretty one, Drivers have to see me, the ugly old grump sitting next to her.

4) There will be no fuel available at the track as the stock on hand is reserved for BMW next week.

BYO please, It’s cheaper that way. Refuelling must be out the back of the garages. NO SMOKING !

5) Tony Thorne will be in charge of Pit Lane and will give a run down at the drivers briefing to cover the

new automatic lights around the track at flag points. If we get a radio call from the spotters on the hills

he can switch on yellow or red lights right around the circuit or just in one spot. It may replace flaggies

at club events one day so this will give you a chance to get used to it.

6) Age limit on passengers is 14 YO according to ARDC rules.

7) Experienced Drivers may ride as passengers in the one hour sessions to give helpful tips etc.

8) During those one hour passenger sessions only cars with passengers will be allowed out and no passengers in the half hour sessions. Those are for full speed work.

9) If your L2S or renewal license has not arrived from CAMS you should follow it up and get an email or fax to prove that it is in progress. They do have some problems in Melbourne HO. I cannot take your word for it I am afraid. Too many people have lied to me over the years.

10) We understand that the Top Gear guys will be on track up to 9AM and after 5PM doing filming. If they hang around please be nice to them as we may get some publicity for club level motorsport. If they sign on you will be permitted to take them as passengers. Who knows, you could end up a TV Star.

11) And now, the schedule, Lets’ assume that a bunch of you will be super keen, get there early, be all signed up and ready to go. We will do the driver briefing at 8.45 AM (not 9 AM) and have you ready to go out when Top Gear is finished.

Session 1 – 9 AM - 30 minutes for Race Cars with slicks IE The serious fast cars. (Type 1)

Session 2 – 9.30 AM – 30 minutes for Road Cars and those who wish to go with them. (Type 2)

Session 3 – 10 AM – 60 minutes for all cars to take passengers at reduced pace.

Session 4 – 11 AM – 30 minutes for Type 1 cars

Session 5 – 11.30 AM – 30 minutes for Type 2 cars

Session 6 – 12 noon – 60 minutes for all cars to take passenger rides

Also remember that at 12 .30 to 1 the Prod Sports folks are to break for lunch and their presentations.

Others who have paid for lunch may choose to eat between 12 and about 1.30 when the Caterers finish.

Session 7 – 1 PM – 30 minutes for type 2 cars (yes we swap them around after lunch)

Session 8 – 1.30 PM – 30 minutes for type 1 cars

Session 9 – 2 PM – 60 minutes for all cars to take passenger rides

Session 10 – 3 PM – 30 minutes for type 2 cars

Session 11 – 3.30 PM – 30 minutes for type 1 cars

Session 12 – 4.PM – 60 minutes for all cars to do final passenger rides.

5 PM close of proceedings on track.

That is a possible 6 hours on track if you can muster up enough passengers so bring fuel with you.

I intent to arrive at about 10 with the car ready to go, and pay my money once the first breakdown occurs. This is unless fatz cant find me a spot. Worst case the car stays in the car park and I get to go for a squirt with the boys.

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
