Yep, those who were there yesterday would know that it's just as much fun to skid and slide in the rain!

If you weren't there yesterday, why not??? It's an awesome day, so make sure you get yourself down to our next ones when they are announced. post-435-13950440857651_thumb.jpgpost-435-13950440993428_thumb.jpg

I've decided that next time I get to do timing, it's only fair that all FWD cars get an Instant Wrong Direction penalty.


Your power goes the wrong end of the car. Obvious penalty if obvious.

2nd'd with the clean up, it got smashed, heaps of hands make light work :yes::yes:

photos will be inc soon

Great day, huge thanks to everyone who assisted, and everyone who entered.

I called up Yesterday 8.30 am and Margaret a spokesperson was asked a leading question as to whether CAFE2U had a policy about what happens if their primary van operator is sick, that a backup operator takes his/her place? She said, "Most definitely."

I said, "Well the system broke down yesterday (Sunday)!!!"

I added, "Not only did he not turn up, he also never call for backup, he also had the temerity to suggest we were only worth 1 hour's work and he was thinking of serving us whilst on cold n flu tablets. I'm a pharmacist and you never ever serve food n drink whilst flu is still virulent! "

After 9am the manager Karen called me and stated beyond her profuse apology that this will never happen again under her watch.

We'll see next month. At least the lady operator has already called up to confirm. I did issue a warning to Karen that a Plan B must always be in place.

MMmmm.. I didn't actually know there would be coffee, so I brought my usual Thermos of black gold =-D

Cafe2U is a franchise, so there is no benefit to the sick guy to make any effort to cover his rounds... he probably can't even get in trouble!

I suggest we try and replace Cafe2U with Harry's Cafe de Wheels... so I can get a fancy hotdog. ;o)

Hmm i might be responsible for most of the rubber left on the strip (R34 4dr), as i remember some of the guys telling me i had flicked rubber everywhere, coupled with some incriminating photos of my shredded tyres =/

Thanks to the organisers and those who stayed to clean up.

Overall, it was a great day. I'm looking forward to seeing the video.

Great photos as well.

    • That’s a beautiful setup Tao, Have u done any development with the new Turbosmart 40mm electronic straight gate, especially in this G30 configuration?
    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)
