[GTRsean]

I'm guessing helmet and full clothing etc?

[Cadmoon]

Nope, can wear DT's if you want.

[stevoR33]

Hey I've just joined this week and am looking forward to tmrw, if it get cancelled because of the rain does someone usually post something on here?? Just curious as I'm driving down from northside of Brisbane?

[Cadmoon]

No, goes ahead even if it's raining. If it gets cancelled for another reason check here or on the SAUQld site to find out in the morning.

[stevoR33]

Ok no worries thanks

[GTRsean]

Great morning out and a hearty breakfast.

Was heaps of fun, and nice to meet a few of you guys!!

Exhaust gasket on the rear turbo somewhere decided to leak so I gave up after a few laps

Hope the r33 with the blown gearbox is back on the road again ASAP!

[FineLine]

Turned out to be the diff not gearbox luckily for him

[WhitePrincess]

photos anyone?

[robbo_rb180]

Happy laps was happy.

it was a good start to the day, can't wait for the next one

[mattis96]

Was a good day, wouldn't mind seeing some video footage as well

Just put my name down for a 356mm big brake kit, hopefully that fixes my problem of no brakes after 3 laps

[junny123]

Maybe a case of tortoise and the hare but I ran pretty much flat out from start to finish and only have uprated brake pads and rotors, at one stage seemed like only a few cars on track. would be keen to see pics or vids.

[mattis96]

I had dimpled and slotted rotors front and back with cant remember what pads, high temp motul brake fluid and braided lines, so I don't know...

[Cadmoon]

I would say you where just braking later and harder than everyone else.

[Joe_89]

photos anyone?

No pics up yet, but here is something that one of the execs did

Your pads are the most crucial part, good brake fluid and slotted or dimples rotors are to help keep the surfaces cool

If the pads are crap then none of it will be any good

Check out what ones you have and their temperature rating, might not need that big brake kit

[SlidingAlex]

Had a great day out sunday, hopefully will have my own car out there soon, good to meet a few of you guys

Got a bit of footage on my phone, but cant manage to get a program to compile them all
