Yeah, back now... for a little while. Was over there for work, so not too much play. Its hard when everything happens at 2am! Little Blighters definatly stay up late. Did see (or hear) the scooter gangs roaming around.

Toyota Chasers/MkII's seem to be the popular choice on the island. Saw heaps of them. Stacks of skylines/S13s too, but most of them just NA models sold to US servicemen thinking they were getting fast and furious.

Anyone going to Calder for Gymkhana World Tour?

yep, got 3 cars heading over by the sounds of things.

Stagea

RX8

Evo 6.5 TME

prob going over on friday night and drive straight to calder for the show :thumbsup:

Yeah, my bad. I didn't think it'd sell out that quick!

Whats your plans dude, i ended up getting friday off, but i still can't leave till mid/late afternoon.

Are you getting a motel or crashing some random place?

I was figuring a motel or something, happy to share the love around :3some:

Figure we need to get on it shortly though, before it gets booked out.

I'll probably leave early Friday, want to get over there as fast as possible and relax!

well my wife is coming too, so i'm less happy to share the love around(unless of course she is asleep):whistling:

we shall have discuss the plan at the stagea cruise next weekend.

Give her some roofies... that'll give us some time to ourselves... :cheers:

I still have to work out who is coming with me, then I'll book motel or caravan park. Cabin is fine with me.

cabin close to the track sounds good, we won't be getting there until after midnight, but i wouldn't mind staying sat night too, then bail early for a sunday drive home.

    • It’s not driver training though, it’s just an online questionnaire and $65 
    • Almost certainly no. In Vic they have this crazily restrictive set of rules for mods that is usually interpreted as "no more than 2 modifications to the intake system". And they're not real hot on upgraded turbos at all, let alone high mounts. That means if you fit a bigger (particularly front mount) intercooler (which is, of course, almost impossible to go without) then you're already down to one other mod allowed. You'll really benefit from hearing from someone from Vic who knows the real state of play. Even better, speak to an automotive mods certifying engineer from Vic. You can actually read the rules from the govco websites yourself, too.
    • Well, I'm not clicking on a link to f**king bookface (never have, never will), so I can't really know what the complaint here is about, but.... There's nothing particularly wrong with forcing people to have a higher license category to drive super/hypercars. Note that the laws are not about modified cars - only listed standard cars, because there are not supposed to be cars modified enough to meet the law's category limits anyway. If you have a modified car that falls into those power limits you're already in trouble anyway. What is wrong is the bullshit on-line "test" to get the upgrade, instead of any actual work and training.
    • Meh Don't have Facebook anymore but watched a YouTube about it, they also talked about them not being able to use and "sports" modes, not really sure how they would enforce that apart from logging the Db for the cars that have exhaust valve activation in sports mode Apart from all the high end sports cars and supercars that make the sort of power they are talking about standard, I cannot see it bothering anyone else, unless of course road side tests now include having a dyno and scales on site to test the power output vs weight What is it? 500hp per ton? And if the only additional cost is $60 or so, as the video stated, I cannot see that being a war stopper for the people that outlay a few hundred thousand dollars on a performance car In fact, I see it would be a ego boost for some, because they have a "special" drivers licence for a "special"person with a "special" car And if I did have a modified car that made over the limit, there's no way in hell I would apply for a "special" licence, I could see the authorities checking your licence against your rego, so if old mate applied for a licence, but owns a, say, R33 Skyline, that may trigger an inspection of said car as to why, and how, that old mate has a R33 that would fit the bill of making over 500hp per ton Again, meh, not something I believe will be a real issue to 99.9% of people
