Noel - You'll need to call me on this one. I've sent you two text messages. Circuit Club haven't received your payment and accordingly, they've cancelled your spot.

You'll need to send me your deposit date, reference and amount in order for me to have them track it down.

Liz.

lol Ben. dont you just put 200ml of fuel in it and just turn up?

Gonna be another last minute effort to get everything ready as I have zero time during the week to test anything or make adjustments grr.

can i organize an appropriate temporary license on the day?

Kinda last minute decision, as I'll now be taking Leif's spot for this track day and it'll be my first so I'm a bit unsure of it all

pretty sure you can purchase the wakefield liscence on the day

Seam: They provide you with numbers when you sign on.

ITINERARY

7.30: Gates Open - Drive in, sign in and get prepared!

8.45: Driver’s Briefing - This needs to be done before you are

allowed onto the track. If you haven’t signed in by now, you may

miss your first session on the track.

9.00: Track Opens

4.00: Track Closes

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Clothing: You will be required to wear long sleeve clothing and

closed shoes with socks. Helmets are mandatory on the track, one

can be arranged for hire if necessary.

General Car Condition: Please make sure your car is in complete

working order and you have no leaks or loose items in or around the

car.

Getting There: Wakefield Park is about 10 minutes outside of

Goulburn, located on Braidwood Rd. The turn off for this road is

right near Goulburn train station, with a big blue sign pointing the

way!

Sessions: There will be 4 groups on the day, classed by lap times and

experience. Remember, if you are having any issues with your group

on the day, see me!

probably would be a good idea to have the battery isolater switch position marked. The rest i think you have covered.

i recieved the itinerary etc from circuit club today but my computer wont open PDF anymore. anyone else get it? what does it say?

Does the car need any markings? Number, blue triangle etc? and just neck to wrist to ankle clothing + helmet I assume?sry if these are silly questions

I'll be located in the first row of garages with my red ute parked on the grass infront of my garage.......be good to get everyone grouped together to help each other out.

The CircuitClub trackdays are brilliant because the sessions are longer, a typical trackday is usually 6-10 laps where as the last CC Wakefield day I did was up around 10-15 laps.

    • I'm on the AD09, strictly on the street. They are a very nice tyre, have done ~16k km and are near the end, might make it to 20. They are, in my opinion, very much just a street tyre. I wouldn't expect them to be equivalent to some of the others in your list on the track. Although I'd be pleasantly willing to be surprised. My memory of the AD08Rs is vague enough, due to the passage of time, that I shouldn't try to compare them, but I feel as if the AD09 is not quite as "sporty" as the AD08R was.
    • There's a difference between "selling" a product to someone (which, if you walked into a workshop or bricks and mortar store and bought and walked out with it, is just the act of buying and selling) and rolling your buggy into a workshop and having them fit non-roadworthy stuff to the car. And for the latter, let's ignore any potential legal loophole arguments that the armchair lawyer might want to make to differentiate between supplying your own parts to be fit by the workshop or getting the shop to supply and fit. The workshops that have been dealt with in the US for this are in the latter category. It would be near impossible to try to charge/attack/criminalise a shop for selling "for off road use only" parts to someone unless those things were intrinsically illegal in their own right, or had other legislation wrapped around them, such as there is for guns, pharmaceuticals, etc. Well, no. And you knew your argument was silly when you made it. And there is. it might be somewhat harder in Vic, but then that's the price you pay for electing the long list of (unts that you have to run the whole shit hole**. But otherwise, you can put an aftermarket or otherwise tunable ECU into a car and get it run through the whole shebang of emissions testing as part of an engineering cert and, so long as the tune is "locked" afterwards, then that modification is on the list that is approved on the cert. But....it is an expensive process. ** Of course, the (unts who make up a large proportion of the population that eternally try to get around the rules are also a part of the problem and the reason that you end up with draconian rules in the first place. By contrast, SA was founded and the government and civil service set up and run by very sensible types (largely German) who set up good structures that enabled a lighter touch of government on the somewhat better behaved population. it is only more recently that we have followed the rest of Australia down the criminal drainhole of penal colony behaviour and now we have to catch up with mobile phone cameras and so on.  
    • Not specifically the revamp Toyos. In the past I've used Nitto NT01s, which were essentially the same compound as R888 with a different pattern (that's what the internetz said, so just be facts). I did like the NT01, progressive fade, didn't go from grip to 0 grip in a split second. If you look at the serious street/track guys, most are either on Cup 2, A052, A050, AD09, CR-S or AR-1.  
    • I have one of these! It is absolutely useless. It provides not nearly enough force on the bolt, it just slips over anything that is not finger tight. And if it's finger tight, you can use your fingers.
    • You have to take photos of the car in Victoria with a timestamp. So if you have big aftermarket turbo in your engine bay, your car is simply not getting a RWC and you'll be doing a lot of returning to stock, and re-modding after about 90 days (because cars that have had a RWC can be audited after the fact). The law I'm kinda ambivalent about. I can see the logic and the writing on the wall, Cobb etc would be well known for selling to 'wink wink off the street usage' but in the real world everyone knows what they do and where they end up. It'd be like someone selling guns in Australia but "only to people who have a proper licence" but selling them outside of Bunnings instead of sausages to anybody. Like RWC's, and VASS's and EPA, this is enforcement of the actual existing rules. I haven't looked into it but there (should) be a way for people to legally pass their tuned car to be within the rules if they can prove they pass emissions laws that are applicable. If there's not then that's another story.
