I had a ball being my first time at DECA.

Many thanks goes to the orgnisers and volunteers to make the day goes smoothly.

And special thanks goes to Bec for getting SAU hoodies for me, they makes me really warm!

No pictures from me as I was busy understeering a 302rwkw GTR - was fun, and I learned heaps about taming the 'beast'

Will defintely enter another DECA (next one is in November?).

Cheers

Grant

Thanks to all for organising, was a great day. Froze and lost feeling in my legs at one stage while out on the back track, but it was a great spot to be, only had to move a few cones back a couple of times, and I think I managed to get pics of most of the cars on either indian file or 80% of the back track, they are just uploading now. It was great that the rain held off too!

Pity about the turn out for tea, would have been nice to have let Bec know if you were only coming for drinks & were going to be late, but we had fun anyway. Gotta love those fish bowls!

See you all next time :) Can count me in for volunteering again.

Cheers,

Anna

P.S Ill post the link to my images when they are finished uploading. I have around 150 shots and they are taking forever and it keeps crashing.

Heres what I have taken, nothing real special as I wasnt in the mood for photography so I only took them on indian file & 80% runs and only got a few in the arvo.

Well once again had a great day giving the stagea a run around the wangs and the skid pan.No off on the 80% this time.My driving is getting better but my sense of direction is getting worse with 3 WD on the pan so there is no chance of seeing any stats where the hearse sits on the scores.

Hamish bad luck about the seat it did not like 6.4 100kgs bad way to go out..Grant waiting for the next one all ready (November)ha ha

Thanks to all the people that help out on the day micolour for the sponsorship bec ryan timers,starters,flaggies and cone removalists and the food van man.

Pretty good weekend!

Just got home with a MASSIVE THANKS TO SHANE for bringing me home on his way through, awesome.

Also HUGE THANKS TO LEON for lending me his car and trailer to take my broken GTR to a mates place in shep, fantastic.

THANKYOU RUSSELL for letting me drive your BEAST for the day, was awesome fun and a great car to drive...a nice change!

Thanks to all organisers for standing out in the freezing wind, making the day happen.

Was good to catch up and have some fun with everyone.

Awesome day, as always. I think I probably broke some PB on the wangs, but will probably get my worst overall score due to multiple WDs, and cones, but I had a blast doing it and learning the new LSD. Thanks again to all the organisers, volunteers and micolour. Sorry to the poor hat removalist girl who I sent running twice as I came spinning wildly into the gate.

Now I think I'll take a nap, Brad and I got up at 4am, stayed out till 4am and then drove back on a few hours sleep.

I had a great time at DECA as always

The skidpan turned out to be an interesting event with the wet patches

at least you gave her a warning beep we all had a good laugh at that..that puddle of water upset a few cars coming into the gate

Thanks for an awesome weekend guys... was great to come down and meet a few of you

Was a cold morning at whatever wang I was at :D but happy to help.... and the arvo was good watching the skid pan and going for a few runs

I have some pics on my FB if anyone wants a look: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=1959...mp;id=652446637

Great time as per usual, big thanks to Ryan, Bec and all the SAU Vic team and volunteers for making it possible :D

+1 on the Taco Baz comment, it seems quite a few people weren't stoked with the service. Must be time to try a new venue I'd say.

Here's a couple of the pics Kate snapped, we didn't get a heap as it was hard to get her out of the car and into the cold :)

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
