Driver training?

Didn't know that was even a thing. Just saw the event and the car sort of semi-works so decided to bite the bullet, go slow and have fun!

As for the days, most of the negative reviews seemed to be from a few years ago, but thought people posting here may have more up to date information if there's anything terrible to look out for.

There are often Driver Training groups on the days we participate in where you can be un-timed and have someone sit in with you to show you the lines/braking points etc.

Tampered are a little bit different, you can select Novice/Beginner etc but they allow passengers to run in all cars but you have to pay $20 for the privilege - I don't know if our club has a special deal agreed with Tampered to cover off driver instruction, Andrew?

Track was a bit grippier, starting to rip apart in some areas though.

I was talking to one of the scruitineers, apparently they are going to have to resurface it again!

Otherwise it was a great day, apart from the large amount of cars there!!

Heaps of cars, sounds like a typical tampered day. I've only done a couple myself but found they still tend to run quite smoothly for the amount of cars they get. So surface coming apart, dodgy rush job then?

The sessions were ran ok, but we were waiting over an hour and a half at some points till we were on track again!

Must be, though for around 3 million you would expect better, hey?

    • I'll say bad things about the shit lottery that is Yellow Jackets.
    • Yes, those exactly, either angled, or straight ones. I just dug one of my f**ked up old stock arms out of the crap box. 2 views, showing nipples added in places where they were accessible while installed at both ends of the arm, without clashing with anything else on the car (ie the upright, the inner guard, etc). Circled in red.
    • Don't think that can fit in physically. Are you referring to this?    If it happens again, I'm going to get the nismo ones.
    • I bought the 1/18 scale celica and nsx from Justin and they are very detailed and good quality. I will definitely be interested in others in the series as they come out 
    • Just install a grease nipple into the centre of the outer steel of the FUCA. Make sure the bushes aren't long enough to touch each other underneath that nipple. Cut a few mm off each if need be. Then you can push grease in there while it is all assembled. That was the very first thing I did (to all 4 ends) of the FUCAs on my 32 when I put Whiteline adjustable bushes into them. They would squeeze the grease out real fast, and I could squeeze it back in faster.
