I went to Morgan Park once, stayed a few nights.

That Duncan fella sure can snore. And those QLD folk are strange... They even let the wiggles go out racing...

Best viewing point... On top of the bridge for sure...

Cost to stay: I dunno. Too busy working on cars to count... :P

Las Vegas Exotics

Sadly I didn't do this but my cousin did. He drove 13 exotics for 5 laps each and was given incar and out of car footage. He loved the Aventador's speed but reckons the handling of the Superleggera and Scuderia were unbelievable! Would have the Turbo S as an everyday car!!

He has given me a new holdiay goal...

If you're in England at the beginning of July, check out The Festival of Speed at Goodwood. ' Track' is son of rajab March's driveway. (Heidfeld has the record in a F1). Event is over three days and I reckon you could easily spend 2 days there. The Best.

Some video I took in '09. 2012 is the 20th anniversary year, sorry I won't be there.

Edited by essay

I have been trying to make Goodwood but timing doesnt match up. Last year I was in the UK when they had the historic race meet and you get all dressed up in vintage clothes etc. Was going to go but my friend and his Mrs who were going with me pulled out...plus I was flying out the next day so I just hit the drink instead :whistling:

all my wakefield MRA race meets have been a boys weekend and been awesome! hahaha

also,

I did this on my honeymoon...I love my wife haha

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
