Pete knows how to wheel a car, thats for sure.

Woolls! Good to see you getting back out there mate :thumbsup:

Still don't think I'll be back out there anytime soon unfortunately.

Pete should get the mighty rb20 into the 57's

Damn that's quick for what his car is if he does make it into the 57's. He'll be right on the money with the big $$$'s boys if he can do that.

I might head down for a look too, I'm very interested in getting in to circuit racing.

Does anyone know what'd involved? I know you need a CAMS PCC licence, what else do you need?

Yep, PCC license plus:

- Approved helmet, balaclava, gloves, suit, boots & socks.

- Dorian timing transponder (you can often hire these off motorsports tas for a start but will need your own eventually)

Most of the effort goes into getting the car log booked. CAMS approved cage, killswitch, tie wire on all drain bungs, catch can, and all the normal club day requirements.

That's all I can think of.

How does one go about obtaining a PCC licence?

And what's all this CAMS log booking about?

Nunn mentioned his PB to date at basky was a low 58 on new semi's

thats right a 58.1 or 2 i think.

the best part of the car how close to standard it is. and its the best example of the KISS motto (keep it simple stupid)

ive heard there is a few mods been done to get a tenth or 2 out of it yet.

i hear he's the go to guy for suspension work! id get his advice if my suspension had more adjustability

funnily enough Brad has actualy developed his suspension geometry further than most. but unfortunaly unless you want to pay for the info he keeps to himself. a lot of hours of r&d have been done.

Check this out, good day for quick times!

Pretty sure that's a new lap record to Sherriff. And I'm pretty sure that makes him and Burns the first Targa class cars into the 56's!

Nunn is into the 57's as you guys predicted, he actually qualified at a 57.1!

Also well done to Woolls and Briggs, pretty sure that's the first time either of them have gone under a minute.

It'll be interesting to keep an eye on the times for the rest of the day.

Just got back from having a look.

Some seriously awesome racing going on.

Watching Nunn and Sherrif in their GTS-t's was awesome.

Just got home myself, though it was absolutely awesome, it was also slightly awkward watching. As every human in a 30 metre vicinity of Sherrifs car pulled their immense orgasm face on each lap he went past.

Crazy shiz, definitely going back out for the next one!

yep Nunns Qualifying time was off chops. its a full second off his PB. people usualy say when your pushing that deep in times you only get gains of thenths of seconds.

but then for brad and burns to come out and smash that. Wow. i think that maybe the egos were dented beeing smashed by a car worth a fith of there cars.

Brads car does sound like sex with the sequentual box.

did anyone notice Petes wing. i heard there was a fair amount of testing done on it saturday.

    • A little follow up here on the ceramic coating.  We've had storms galore here and I've done a few ks, enough to gross them up  Consensus is that they didn't get as dirty as usual, the coating definitely repelled a little of the dirt and I think they kinda snowball. They get a little dirty and then they get dirty faster which makes sense. Cleaning them regularly would allow them to protect better.  Cleaning was a breeze. I tried first to just hose them off which, unsurprisingly, did nothing. But, making the wheels wet and then just wiping them over with a used but clean microfibre cloth was all that was required. I didn't need any cleaner at all, just water and a cloth. The wheels look amazing again.
    • Gave her a nice wash today and took extra time to clean off the tree sap and tar and crap. We have a usable garage now so she'll stay cleaner longer. Took a few snaps in some nice light afterwards.   
    • OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat
    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
