cheers, will do.

but before i go bothering them, do you need to be a member of one of the clubs?

Just spoke to Jonathon Graham (WRX guy) and he said as long as the car passes Scruit and you are a member of a CAMS affiliated club (SAUNSW) you are good to go.

You can pay by the link in the entry form, fill in the entry form and email it to Jonathons email address.

If you pay before 11 May cost is $165.

Did you have the Mines baffles in the 26 covers on?

Yes and it was 99% better, still had a small amount of slatter that got through the covers/baffles and catch can, only a couple of mills/drops though, I didnt drip down from the car to the track but it was still annoying.

To fix the problem Im going to get fabed up another catch tank which will be removeable or have a tap in it to drain it when it gets some in it, even after a full track day I think there would be no more than 10 to 20 mills in it.

The first session I just plodded around and it was fine, the second session I got up it a little bit more and that was fine, the third session I thrashed the bejesus out of it, changing gears when the shift light flashed and trying to keep it on the boil, thats when it spat a little.

Awesome fun day with a PB and big four wheel drifts, the Hankooks although only classed as a street tyre were great, no nasty moments with them at all even when doing four wheel drifts through the corners.

With a few more sessions under my belt I can smell single figures.

Ill fix up the little issue of the oil and give her some maintanance like new pads and stuff and then....

Come on Skyline Nationals.

    • I steam cleaned my near new set of volk gtc wheels 14 years ago and farrkkked them lol. The clear coat cracked like spider webbing in several areas. Lesson learnt don't do that. 😭
    • If you don't touch the CAS, then you're fine.
    • Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.
    • I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.
    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.
