Hmm both Alex and I went off track excursion while instructing. Instructor fail.

Charles, I mad sure to get a couple of photos. Will find them when I get home tonight.

Thanks Eric I look forward to some pictures.

ThAt sports saloon was quick!

It was running in the top half with a 1:22.3 when it was wet at the start of the day but when a dry line started to develop other cars could put their power down and we started moving down the leader board. There is no surprise that we were prying for the rain to continue.

Yeah there were a few surprises, I was sitting in 10th on the 2nd timed run at 1:20.xx and I went in to check my new time for timed run 3, which turned out to be a 1:19.xx and I dropped all the way to 17th ROFL

i was like oh shit got some catching up to do HAHA

stand by for car behind you dash cam footage...

@GTofuS-T

Blender wont add the audio if I speed it up (it probably would if i wasn't too lazy to even try ;) ).

If i don't speed it up, it renders at about .55% original speed.

so the audio of me and Eric having a giggle has been 'censored'.

Haha that's awesome thanks man!! I swear it felt like I did 720 degrees worth of spinning though.

Edit: also the photo Ciaron got just before this shows my left rear wheel was off the road... no wonder!

Ahhhh that's when I was in the swift with my cousin and we were letting you past lol

Um, you mean my photo? That was at the top of the hill in the afternoon.

Nice photo! But Ciaron had taken a photo just before that incident.

Yes ^_^ got a little too accelerator happy

Lol mental note, next year you two are banned from instructing lol

you shut your mouth!!!

I'm 100% convinced that Eric gave me enough info to not end up in the wall by creating a 'tactical' pre-emptive spin, thus becoming an epic pussy every time I went around that corner for the rest of the day saving my life and my car. :)

Here is a dropbox folder with all my photos from the day. I will leave it up for a couple of weeks.

If you find something you like feel free to post it up here or elsewhere.

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
