are there still places free for this?

yes, because i haven't distributed the enrolment form to anyone yet!

form will be sent out tonight with full payment required by May 31st for this course which will be conducted three weeks later (June 21).

The official enrolment form (pdf format) is available here:

Car_Club_Intro_Performance_course_Info_and_Questions_2010.pdf

Full payment to John Bowe Driving is due by May 31st for the trackday three weeks later (June 21)

Please reply on this thread when you have sent your form + payment in so that Luke (heslo) and I can track numbers.

*note: it is a requirement that participants have completed a defensive or advanced course prior to attending our High Performance course. This ‘Car Club Performance Drive Day’ meets & exceeds this experience requirement.

I haven't done a defensive or advanced course yet, does this mean I can't enter at all? Or is that just a note for the following High Performance course?

it is indeed just a note for the subsequent High Performance course. their requirement is that people complete a Defensive Driving or Advanced Course before doing the HP course (I'll be running one in November).

as you haven't done either of those courses yet, the June 21 course is the one for you!

im very interested still

then download the form attached above and let us know when you've sent it in so that Luke and i can add you to our list!

SAU has preference for the first week, then JB Driving will open it up to the other clubs (Porsche Club of SA, FPV, WRX etc) so you'd better get in soon or risk missing out as places WILL fill up quickly.

Im out for this one, will try and make a later one

this is the only Advanced course that we're doing this year and it's very likely that I won't offer it ever again after this, so sorry but there probably won't be a later one! :P

for what its worth i would also be interested if you could find the time to do another one

but i understand if you cant, maybe luke and myself should look @ running one for SAU|SA

lol no point in running this Steve...you guys will get more people coming like the last track day.....do another one asap please....it was f**king rad

I don't mind doing them, it's just that the amount of interest decreases as the 'pool' of novice drivers is depleted (because they go onto the High Performance courses and open trackdays) so it takes a lot more effort to get new people in together for subsequent courses.

And after a while it starts to feel like i'm flogging a dead horse with the diminishing responses / interest.

What you guys can do to help me is to sustain the interest by directing those people who would benefit from such a course to attend them when they're on as the opportunities for driver education are limited.

thanks for your concern! cheers

No!!! God I hate my car right now :P

No!!! God I hate my car right now :)

you dont have to take a skyline out there Dion......it could be any car mate.....just as long as it has decent pads for you to get the basics down.....they teach you more about cornering, understeer, oversteer, how to figure out a racing line, positioning of the car, making the apex etc etc

Yeah I know, I would just rather use a 'line - as my only other options arent really options.

Im trying like a bat out of hell to get (borrow) items needed to get mine going - fingers crossed!

    • It's not any meta data. They have scraped images from everywhere, and then use AI to compare your photo to other photos and work out where you are.
    • I just looked at my camera phone settings, apparently I have "not allowed" for location  Will that stop that app?

    • Thanks for posting, your engine bay looks tops. I'm fairly sure you posted the wrong video though, I think you were supposed to upload the one from your "private test road" where it's banging off the limiter with the gate open?
    • This is something to be careful of. I did a bit of digging on the NM35, as I spend a lot of time on near brand new cars and CANBus related stuff, which uses the same "OBD2" plug for a fair chunk of making my life easy. The NM35, does NOT support OBD2. The data pin is actually on Pin3, which is a manufacturer specific pin, and requires Consult3 to connect to the NM35. Your low voltage, is either because the NM35 doesn't have 12V to the constant power pin on the J1962 (OBD2) connector, OR, it is attempting the standard comms, (CanBus, K Line, etc) and can't see any voltage on those pins. Some people have had success accessing SOME data from the vehicle on OBD2 specification, using a module that supports KPW. My assumption, like Duncan has stated, it will likely actually be JOBD, where there is some cross over with the OBD2 and JOBD standards. Note, lots of "OBD2" dongles, do NOT support KPW, which is what you need for a lot of Japanese vehicles of this era (And even up until recent years!), EG, Subaru, Suzuki, etc.    The end of this thread is probably worth a read, as some people did find a way to get a display up in the NM35 recently, looks like someone implemented all the stuff needed to make it work. (The right protocols).
