Taken from PGA. This is replacing the track day that was meant to happen. No timing just get out there and have fun!

After the failure of the track day i had organised, and speaking with wakefield they have said that they will host a "speed off the streets" event on the same day for anyone who is interested, and whatever they take at the gate will be deducted from the hire fee that i have become solely responsible for.

The day is unfortunately untimed, but the cost is only $140.

For anybody interested in just getting on the track and throwing their car around for a bit of track experience, this would be a good event to participate in.

I'll be going anyways, and i hope to see a few fellow pga'ers out there as well.

Cheers

Adam

can anyone help me with whats the basic needs to be able to go on the track?

You need an L2S CAMS licence or you can get a licence from the track which is only valid for Wakeflied Park.

I think you would need at least your P's. Give Wakefield call.

You don't need a fire extinguisher for speed off the street days, or at least they never asked or looked for one when I go there :)

do you know the rules about these days and attempting to drift some corners of course with no other cars in the corner?

and nothing stupid like manji down straights

I got black flagged for sliding around the same corner 4 laps in a row... black flag means "you're awesome, keep going" right?

Moral of the story, you need to brake earlier when you are using street tyres :P

50% chance of 10-20mm on saturday which means at this stage im out - no point going if its gonna be raining as I havent got wet tyres.

My trailer is loaded still (from the last wakefield day) so i'll check the forecast on friday arvo again.

      ER34 RB25DE Auto - Would a flush ever fix an "A/T" light?

      By thatjawncrazy · Posted

      interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to.

      I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD

      I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
