I'll be leaving at 4:45am (for a S.E. Meet point, I will swing by Burwood Highway / Springvale Road Dan Murphy's Carpark at that time if others are coming too...), then meeting a few others at Wallan BP Outbound (~5km past the "Wallan" exit on the Hume) at 6am.

Express your interest now, or I'll just drive straight there :P

I love your brand of hard love, Simon.

Yeah i'm in mate. I'll meet you guys @ Wallan BP. What time?

I emailed Circuit Club regarding Supp Regs last Friday, was told they'd be available within this week.

cool

(Shameless Plug)

If you're looking for breaky before race day, pop in to Bouwmeesters Bakery and grab a bacon & egg Roll :)

(The one with the glass fencing, tables & chairs outside).

Sounds good, what discounts have you arranged for your fellow club members?

As you know I should be seeing you at 6am at the Wallan BP. Looking forward to my first attempt at Winton. :)

If I don't have to be there early Robyn and I will meet everyone at Wallan BP :)

Wallan BP -> Winton is 1h 35m according to Google Maps, so if we leave at 6:10am we should get there at about 7:45.

We still have no Supp Regs about the event, so don't know what time they even expect to be opening the gates (I'm assuming 7am)

Because of the semi-late arrival, I'm making sure to do the majority of my Scruitineering preparation on Friday night, so all I have to do is quickly unpack the car and get signed off.

Email just came in.

Hi,

Winton track day is just around the corner! Here are some details for the event. Any questions let me know.

7.30: Gates open. Come in, prep your car and get ready for scruitineering. Cars will be inspected in your garage. They will be checked for secure battery, cleaned out interior and working brake lights. Your car must also have a muffler fitted.
8.45: Compulsory drivers briefing. If you're not here by now you might miss your first session.
9.00: Track sessions start. We will be running 4 groups. The first set of sessions will be untimed, and passengers will be allowed. The next rotation will be timed, no passengers. We will alternate like this until the end of the day.
5.00pm: Track close- pack up and get home safe.

All drivers and passengers must wear long sleeves, pants, closed shoes and approved helmet.

Cheers,
Adrian

Still no supplementary regs with any real information... Worrying.

Oh and put your hands up please for BBQ (and if you are +1 etc etc)... I forgot to post up about that. I'm coming and bringing the usual delights

Two hands up here for Robyn and I :)

Yeah tell me about it, can't believe it's taken them that long just to send that.

In for BBQ :)

9.00: Track sessions start. We will be running 4 groups. The first set of sessions will be untimed, and passengers will be allowed. The next rotation will be timed, no passengers. We will alternate like this until the end of the day.

Every second session we will be running passengers with no timing?

I know people like to take passengers for some fun, but Winton is a bit far to be driving for half the day to be tourist laps....

EDIT: Just had a response from the organisers. There is 70 entries, not 60?

Just as long as you don't coat the track in oil!! ;)

That's finally sorted (fingers crossed lol)

Or lose all camber in a wheel and smoke your rubber against a guard :P

Hopefully that is sorted also... farken cursed... :P

Looks like I'll only be out on track for half the day then lol. Passenger laps FTL. :(

This is what happens when you're a guest at another club's track day - if they allow passenger laps, then everyone gets less track time. IMO, Passenger laps are bullshit... the only 'passenger' allowed should be in Driver training sessions.

I agree... Should be 1 (or 2) groups of cars which can allow for passengers / combined with driver training and no timing... and 3 (or 2) groups of cars which are actually there to lay down some times...

Additionally, it's now 70 cars, not 60 as initially planned

    • 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
