Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys, Girls & Tim-meh's :D

With the kind association we have with Paul-aka "Mountainrunner" :) & his supporting Circuit Series aka 'Time Attack', SAU-Qld is proud to present our Circuit/Track Day for the year 2009 at the beloved Queensland Raceway. :rockon:

This event is to be run on the 8th of July (Wednesday)as a morning session & is aimed to give some of the keen punters a bit of 'wheel time' & a social event where we can drive, then sit around & compare "War Stories" afterward.

We are keen to support this event with as much vigor as Paul supports us here at SAU QLD :yes: , so we at the Exec are planning to make a bit of fuss as the calls for more Events has been heard & action has been taken to ensure we are all the 'happiest of campers' with loads to do regardless of personal preferences for track, drift or even just learning how to drive properly with driver education or catchin up for a meal, a beer, & a natter :gossip: .

Please post your interest here :gathering: so we can sort the incidentals & make this "one to remember" that will reverberate through the halls of justice for eons to come & of course for those who are comfortable with it-let the sledging commence :2thumbsup:

The next track day will be on Wednesday July 8. The Nissan and EVO vers WRX events has been postponed until later in the year, so in response to the Time Attack Survey I have nominated July 8 as our first casual day this year. All laps will be timed of course but there will be no competition rounds on the day.

Morning Session – Clubman (2hr), Sprints (2hr)

Afternoon Session – Sprint (3hr), National (1hr)

Track Fees / Booking conditions

There are two options to pay for track day. You can prepay before the day by bank transfer or pay on the day.

If you prepay before the day and have to cancel, there will be a $40 cancellation fee for half day and $80 for full day. The remainder of your payment will be refunded.

Prepaid must be done 2 days before the event with confirmation emailed to info@timeattack.com.au otherwise payment will be considered as pay on the day at the higher price.

The morning and afternoon sessions will still be limited to 40 cars. Therefore if you choose to pay on the day and the event is booked out you will miss out.

Half Track Day: Prepaid: $140.00 or Paid On the Day: $170.00

Full Track Day: Prepaid: $270.00 or Paid On the Day: $300.00

Passenger Ride: $10.00 (must have done 2 previous events to qualify)

Nice one guys, look forward to meeting you :(

hey toddlls you left a message on my missus GTR (white R32) yesterday about track day seeems its a small world hey lol. She wont be at the next track day as i am about to give her GTR a bit of love so she can get out there again she has been to a few track days and loves them but her car has been a bit neglected for the last 12 or 18 months while i have been building my car among a few others. Will put up a post about it when i get to it just needs a few mods to the cooling and oil controll systems and a bit of a tidy up to get it to the point where she can get back out there for some laps.

Awesome mate, just letting you know now you can do mine too ROFL, cant wait to see this beast you are bringin along & catch up with some more SAU crowd

That is me :D

Schweeeeet :D

Its a shame you can't both be there as I would be keen as for the oportunity to get Gold Coasties & the Brisvegas crowd & have a great day together with regard to some quick driving but also maybe more realistically intermix the 2 crowds & expand friend circles.

I am trying to get a series of annual events available for all on here ie Drags, Drift, Circuit/Sprints & maybe a full blown Gymkhana Day with a bit of skidpan action so we here in Qld have some great days to meet some more SAU & general Skyline drivers. I have noticed we are a bit light on the number of events for all who live in the Sth east.

I also have plans in the mix possibly to include other car clubs in a general motorsports day so we can cover the costs of a full day (Saturday) stint a one of the tracks possibly next year as the costs are really starting to increase as clubs scramble to keep the racing on the Track & not on the Streets as is currently the fashion.

I will definitely keep you 2 in the loop as to what I come up with as a couple with his&hers Skylines totally rocks-well done you two :O

This will be a great day, Paul aka Mountainrunner has been a key element in providing us once again with access to his Time Attack series so we can do some laps- mucho respecto Paulie :O

I will defintely keep an eye out for your 2 cars & present a wave once seen so watch out for my Grey 32 with the Gold driftek wheels & SAU stickers in the rear quarters & a baldheaded nutter at the wheel :w00t:

ps. apologise in advance if the sun light reflected of my noodle causes you temporary blindness when hangin out the window :P

Thanks Bris. The car will be only running to the tune of 250hp for shake down, so I'm not too worried :)

Mate thats 18hp more than I got & it dont stop all those 2.5's in varying states of tune picking me as their target-more power to us if we pants em I rekon :blink:

    • Curious to see how the SpeedTek stuff holds up
    • The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...
    • Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.  
    • I don't believe I posted pictures of the second oil pump pickup I added so here they are. Data shows it gets oil pressure up to the relief pressure much earlier in the RPM. Is that important? Not likely... This was just another attempt to fix the bearing issues.   I also heavily opened up the inlet to the pump since it now had to flow oil from two pickups. I believe the diameter increased about 1/8".
    • Yes, ther are plenty of [racist statement alert] terrifying 50+ yr old ladies of a certain ethnic origin who have no demerits yet still manage to park their cars on top of roundabouts, hanging out of multistory car parking structures and other wild shenanigans. Somehow they puddle through years of driving without ever attracting the attention of the cops, yet the whole time, they are an instant away from doing something spectactularly stupid.
