can i enter in my n/a or will i look stupid?

Do it! You'll have so much fun.

The skidpan is concrete and you're not allowed to sit there doing a static burnout, so I think your tyres should live :)

haha ok im in then :) quick question how much abuse do the tyres take? will i need to bring 2 spare?

well if you plan on doing this:

yes

that said I looped it a few times at last deca and had some fun and you could not tell there was any extra wear on the tyres.

the skid pan is quite low grip so very difficult to damage your rubber.

A quick run down of the DECA weekend.

FRIDAY

Most people head up on Friday/Friday night at there own pace and time depending on when they can leave.

And there is a small group that wait till saturday morning and leave real early.

The people that go up on Friday have more time to play around with there cars if needed and can enjoy a couple

of beers and a chat with others and is a great way to meet people you may only know as users of the forum.

This time around Bec has arranged for us to stay at the Victoria Lakes Caravan Park. We have stayed there in the

past and i can remember when the lake had water in it. Now its a dry.. But you do need to ring and arrange your own cabin.

DECA..Accommodation...CLICK HERE..

SATURDAY

We get up and head to the Mc Donalds for some food then head out to DECA 5 min out of Shep. Gettig there around 8

WE do DECA bla bla bla and finish up around 4 ish i think.. Then we all HELP pack up... :O We really like people that help out.

Then we head back to the caravan park and knock back 2 or 3 beers before we head out to tea and have a look at the

Shep night life... :):):D:D:D Heading back to the park at what ever time.

SUNDAY

Head home....

sweet thanks, better take some stockys incase i get carried away :)

Yeah smart idea. I had to replace some tyres at the beaurepairs in shepo, lets just say it wasnt cost effective and i regret not bringing spares ;)

Faxed this arvo,

Maybe this will be my Deca debut with a handbrake? :D

Could be Sileighty devastating or could just be embarrassing when I loop it a thousand times.

hahaha sweet that should be funny....

hopefully i should be able to get mine sorted also....

looking forward to it... it should be a good day...

Good stuff rob, i was just going to facebook you and ask if you were competing again

What are you doing to your handbrake? tightening?

Ive got a pretty big list too, least its over a month away.

    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
