normally they have a session for street cars/race cars/open wheelers/dudes who have paid for a v8 thing/driver training/mate of teh owners/mate of the owners dog session ect

so there are like 7 15 minute sessions which means you get f**k all track time

when sharing a car it becomes painfully slow

but the plan is to slapp some plates on and send jenna out in the road cars session , then ill do the race car session with the multitude of wankers going hectik( including myself)

never been to wakefield....or any track..(feeling like a nubie) .. I've got an r33 gtr, pretty keen to have a bit of fun - off the streets - for a change. Keen to meet up wit all you skyline drivers and see ur skills!

could you tell us what i need to bring, how much it'll cost etc

just get the hell out of my way on the straight if i have been on your arse all the way through the corners,your for sure faster on the straight but will be a moving roadblock in the twisty bits...

PSYCHE

all good, be nice to have so many skyline drivers there even on a normal day. hope to god its not as painful as someone on here mentioned..

There are laptop car chargers but can be weak as in it will charge slow but at least it is something. Dick Smith has power inverters for about $60.

Put the laptop under the chair then when you drive out you can just put it back on the seat. I would highly recommend some kind of mounting position though. Don't want your laptop flying out the window haha.

I'd be more worried about being hit by a flying laptop myself.

Remember, if a solid one or two kilo object comes loose while you have a lose at 130+kmh, it's enough to kill you.

lol at the idea of having a loose and heavy object in the car while screaming around the track.

Your laptop should be OK if you leave it at the garages. If you aren't comfortable with this maybe you should consider not taking the laptop at all :thumbsup:

im sure you've got plenty, im keeping that one for myself.

ok so ive already ordered some new brakes. im still deciding on if i should throw in the injectors and get it tuned.

i just need to see if i can get someone to drive my car down for me.

because you're all gay. real men data log. especially when my car isnt tuned yet.

If it isn't tuned, the worst thing you could do is put it on the race track and flog it for 10-15 minutes straight.

The only thing it'll tell you is why you have fuel in your oil, or a hole in your piston.

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
