SAU-NSW Advanced Driver Training (Great Deal) Nov 12/ Dec 12/ Jan 23


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I konw it is a dissapointment but you have to realize that it costs about $6000.00 to hire out the track for a day and if only 4 or 5 go Aaron will lose out big time.

I would love to go but by the end of it, its going to cost at least $1000 to change all fluids and brake pads tyres ect.

Very dissapointing but i can understand why he cancelled......

Brendan - I pre-paid for all 3 stages. I am keen for the April date so Aaron can hang onto my dosh if we're doing it then. I missed the stage 2 day though and haven't been able to get onto him, was hoping to ask him if I can reschedule and bring a workmate to sweeten the deal a bit but I'll give him another call during the week and see what he says. Very keen to get all 3 stages done but everything gets in the way of good clean fun these days ;)

Hi Ash - (I think that) You are entitled to your Bling Bling back - don't worry about that !  

 

If you can't (or don't want to) change to April you should be able to get a refund.

 

To let you guys know - I am doing the OP drift day thing with Aaron (Fatz organised) on Saturday 24th Jan. SO - I will be talking to Aaron at length about this and our options then.

 

Does anyone want to trade (with cash back) on the drift day on the Saturday (ie the next day) ????

 

Drift day is $150 - so you get $75 back

 

Hang tight people

 

B-Man won't let you down ! ! ! ;):( :(

I prepaid all 3 stages Brendan and i've also prepaid payed pete for the Saturday

drift day.

I'd love to do another day with Aaron if I have a car.

YOU LITTLE RIPPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sorry guys I know you boys were excited but I should be pushing 260+rwkw by then so it will be an awesome day!!!!!!!!!!!! Im not missing out anymore!!! YAY!!!!!!!

BMan: I prepaid all 3 stages, Aaron can hold onto my bling bling.I will be off on the day regardless. I like the idea of the C3 testing etc on the same day too, I would have to pay for the C3 test but am more than happy to do so!!!!

BTW, in Aaron's defence, he was obviously short on numbers to make this day a go-er, and he tried a number of ways to find ppl...I got emails from 3 places as well as SAU about the day when he was trying to get the numbers.

I hope most of you guys can hang on until april, stage 3 / race driver training is some of the best fun and most valuable around

And I placed a thread in the Events section on the 9/1/04 - so we all tried really really hard to get the number up....

Damn it - I know it's not Aaron's fault - but i was soo looking forward to this day...

Ah shucks - life goes on .....

Picked up lease turbo from Mark yesterday so i will be back on the road again soon!! Im over driving the mighty white charade up and down the F3, but fuel economy is amazing!!!

Anyhows, time to start picking up bits n pieces to get the car hauling butt for the REAL TRACKDAY or should we say, JUDGEMENT DAY!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahahaha

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 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.
