Sau Nsw Oran Park South Track Driver Training Day

[oweban]

Can't edit the above post, so:

Should be ready by the weekend 100%, but we'll see how it goes.

Can someone enlighten me on in-field camera spots if there are any? Does Oran have flag huts like Wakefield does?

No infield positions. Photographers normally sit on the fence line down the bottom of the track, getting shots of cars coming thru the Esses. Also a good point is the flag point over the flip flop, you get cars coming out of Suttons then over the Flip flop.... seen some epic shots there!!

Other place is in the grand stand snapping people oversteering, playing chicken with the wall, coming onto the straight (Turn 12)

PS. Failvia wont be entered. My fire sale of parts hasnt cleared my debt and left me short for rego, thus the nugget wont be lapping!

BUT i will be there with bells on to help out!

[LSX-438]

Just sent payment, group 1 please

Hope there are still spots available.

[Noddy]

good to hear, see you there moo guy and demon.

watch out....I drive on white lines....no point wasting track....

well done getting the car running again so quickly though

Driving to the edge is just leving me room up the inside and besides, this is how to use the most track and make a skypower as wide as possible!!!

I still have some tread depth left on the very 2nd hand jobs out of my tyre pile after last weekends Street Sprints. YAYYYY!!! first time to OP but hope to pick it up pretty quick, the vid helped get an Idea and John said he will show me round following the Z, just need a rocket booster to keep up!

[sewid]

PAID today. I'm in.

No previous short circuit time.

[NYTSKY]

Does anyone have a layout of the OP South circuit?

EDIT: Found one. PAID Group 4 or 5 please.

[GoldZilla]

Ahhh, more entrants - excellent!

I can't edit the first post, but I will post up a list of current entrants who've paid (according to the SAU bank account records as at midnight tonight) later on...

Those who have paid in the past 24hrs or so whose names do not appear above, don't panic - it can take up to 3 business days for your transfer details to appear in the account summary.

Tom, most often a whistling noise near the turbo is a blown gasket - turbo to dump, manifold to turbo or head to manifold. normally comes with free broken studs to remove! get someone to do it for you unless you hate your knuckles

[andymoocow]

thanks for that Nick, i was about to ask to confirm my payment went through, cheers. Looking forward to it.

^ what he said. I had the same with my stock R33 turbo, i freaked out thought it was the turbo, was just a gasket kit that needed to be replaced, so my mechanic replaced them all anyway. Then good as new! I do remember my mechanic telling me it was a freaking pain in the ass to do too!

[Kujotk]

yeah i could imagine it would be a shithouse job to do...... as far as i know those bolts are the ones that snap like glass when you try and undo them after 12 years of heat abuse..... I snapped one when i tried to change the front pipe.... got stuck in the turbo side..... couldn't get it myself. paid a guy to do it and he went through $80 worth of drill bits to get the bugger out....

If its just a leak (very slight at the moment) i might leave it and come on sunday now ...... just gotya see how work is going to be and then i'll pay

[Kujotk]

inside i sort of want the turbo to blow..... coz then i'll have a decent excuse for an upgrade lol

[FloydWestwood]

lol im like that with almost everything on my car tom lol.
