Baskerville Private Practice

[zoidbergmerc]

Hey Guys,

Short notice I know.

I'm heading out to the track on Sunday if you want to come join me.

Helmets and long sleeves\pants required.

No CAMS licence required.

I'm getting there at around 9:30 am.

[Clandestine]

9:30? Slack. I'm getting there at 3am just to be sure I'm not late.

hmmm... i dont work sunday... how much is it? i actually may come out :D

Hey mate I'd be interested if I can get the car ready in time. Just wondering though, do you need to be part of a club and what's the cost for the day?

Also as far as the car goes what do you need? Is it just secondary bonnet restraint, fire extinguisher (size?) and blue battery triangle or do you not need that stuff for a practice day?

[zoidbergmerc]

because it's just private practice you don't actually need anything although I strongly recommend a 2ndary bonnet restraint and a fire extinguisher (900g+)

Entry is $130 if you're not in a club or $80 if you are. You can join HSCC on the day.

[Bushy]

Ok cool thanks for the info. Hopefully I can get car ready in time, just gotta get some decent tyres and sort out a couple of small things.

Cheers,

Michael

What size do you need? Veeto has some 18x8.5 wheels with some bad ass semis plus a set of streets for sale.

[Bushy]

Well when I said "decent" I was just planning on putting some good street tyres on the standard R32 16's as they are pretty worn, but I have been contemplating getting a second set of wheels at some stage, I did look at Veeto's wheels but wasn't sure how well they'd fit on an R32, also I don't know how serious I'm going to get with tracking the car.

[zoidbergmerc]

I reckon they'd go nice on your ride, if you want a test fit come round on the weekend and I'll throw them on for you

edit, if you want some new rubber, PM Dave.TAS he gets really good prices, he supplies me with all my Federals I use for drifting.

My rear streets are... possibly legal. It will be fiiiiine.

For serious, if you're not planning on smashing any records and you take it easy any set of streets is fine you will just have to rest them every now and again

[Bushy]

Yeah actually I wouldn't mind test fitting them if that's alright, cos just thinking about it I would probably spend almost the same amount on a full set of good streets

[toffy]

How'd it go guys??

[Bushy]

Awesome fun, loving the semi's!

Thanks again for organising it Peter

[zoidbergmerc]

Glad you had fun

[Clandestine]

Yeah turned out to be a really good day for it, dried out really early and the track warmed up nicely Car felt good with new a1RM pads, exhaust, and slightly higher boost levels.

Had the first small issue with my car from track use, blew half the exhaust manifold gasket out toward the end of the day. For 5 track days I'm pretty happy with such a small problem, same set of tyres as when I started too

[zoidbergmerc]

, same set of tyres as when I started too

you must be doing it wrong

[Clandestine]

you must be doing it wrong

I'm doing the underpowered, take it easy dance of awesome. You love it.

[zoidbergmerc]

underpowered is fine if your car weighs 40kgs. Skylines need at least 200kw.

[Bushy]

Should upload those pics Jay

[toffy]

Skylines only need power if you can't turn corners :-P
