All,

I have had too many bad reports etc from Luffy, apparently the course is not consistent enough. It depends on what instructors turn up on the day and to how professional and enjoyable the day can be. So I have decided to go with the Peter Finlay, you actually have to go and do an arvo with him anyway to actually get your license, so we will stick with him.

Some info:

Proposed date 6 & 7 August, 2-day course.

16 people Max, (first in Best dressed)

Day 1 Advanced driver training

8.30 Cams Lecture

8.20 Basic skills

10.00 Practical on cct

10.45 Braking, test theory practice

12.30 Lunch

1.00pm Brake in corner

2.00 Evade and recover

3.00 Cornering, line etc

3.30 Practical cornering

4.30 Close

Day 2 High speed track work.

8.15 Scruitneering

8.30 Cct walk

9.30 Track time

10.30 High speed braking

12.00 Lunch

12.45 Cornering

3.00 Ckeck lap with instructor

3.30 Starts

3.45 Qualify under stop watch

4.00 Cams simulated Rade 5 laps

4.30 Close and qualification granted.

At the end of the days you RX your C3 racing and R3/R5 Rally license.

Cost $570 for both days, for 16 people, if we get less down to 12 people it will be $605.

Peter said If I organize it and get 16 people there I can drive for free, so if we do get 16 people there, I will pass my free days onto every one and hence the $570 cost.

What do we do from here? Well I would like to see the post for the first 15 people who are interested. Second I want to collect a $100 deposit to go to Peter Finlay to book the day. This will be non-refundable unless you can find someone from the forum to take your place.

I made sure the date was far enough into the future so money could be arranged and also Peter and Oran Park availability came into play as well.

If anyone has any objections or suggestions please let me know in a PM. If we can get 16 people who can commit it should be a dam fine 2 days.

Thanks

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
