lol, sorry richard, you've got the wrong person here - I don't even know how to open that lid over the engine thingy :bahaha:

Good luck getting it on the road before then - its only next Thursday, remember!

tell me about it. I have someone down at earls buying stuff for me as I type. I really want to fit my oil cooler before then too so that I can do more than 5 laps in one go.

Looks like I have a fun weekend ahead :D

I just had an even better idea! Forget fixing my car, lend me yours - you can now live your trackday dreams vicariously through me :uh-huh:

:D

c'mon.....

Very doubtful that I will have a car by the 2nd - I thought I'd have it 2 weeks ago, 1 week for bluey etc, so should have been cooking with gas - But alas - it is not to be -

Looks like I I have to wait till next time to make my Team Trackday debut.

Unless........ I hire a Lotus Elise for the day - only $400. I wonder if they would let me take to Eastern Creek ????? :D

really? that's cheap....but an even cheaper option is a $110 mx5 from sky vehicles in haberfield.....and their insurance contract does *not* exclude track use :D

Payment made in Cash or Credit Cards only.  

Security Bond $15,000 Credit Card ONLY  

100km Free included per day, 500km Free for weekend package. Excess kms are charged at $1 per km. Minimum of 2 days on weekends.  

Insurance is included, Excess is AUD $20,000.00.

All,

I have some good news and some bad news.

The bad news, looks like I wont make the afternoon.

The good news, I will be sailing on a 72ft America cup sail boat around the harbour all ofternoon. Everyone enjoy the day and I do my best to enjoy mine.

Paul, can I come with you???

PLEASE!

Spoke to Moto,

We have spots bookes and a few spare, so if you want to come along even for a half day then let me know asap.

I have to work untill 8:30am so I won't be there to set you all up. I have your deposits organised though so just go to the garage at pit exit and sign up and pay the balance (should be $130) and you'll be right to go. I should be at the track right on 9am.

Don't forget your water and a full tank of fuel!!!!

Those that wanted to do a half day that will be fine. As Duncan said it will be negotiate a price on arrivial!

See you all Thursday,

Dan.

Done... wiring transfer now...

I WISH!!!

As said earlier, I won't be there in time to get all set up. Bonkers is now able to do a full day and has organised these days before so if you find him (Black GTS) I'm sure he can set you in the right direction if your having problems. I have also asked Zane (White GTS) to help out also.

See you at 9am,

Dan.

    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
