16/07 Q.R. Saturday Afternoon Sprints

[jlnewton]

Well its on again. Unfortunately my car was not ready for the private track day on the 11/07 but it will certainly be ready for the normal S.A.S. on the 16/07. Can't wait to get out there again and test out the new goodies.

Hopefully we can see some more people there. For all those that can't make the mid-week days here is your chance. The weather is nice and cool, there is no excuses, lets go have some fun! :wassup:

[ImpulR33R]

i will be there, probably with a few mates.

i'll send you a pm concerning details.

[locutus_of_bris]

Yeah, you never know. Will see if ecu man is wanting/available for testing, and then book time off work.

Then again, might just go anyway, it's just too much fun

[Genesis®]

[maccattack]

Hey Jase,

I'm planning on going. Hopefully I'll see you there.

[jlnewton]

Sweet, will be good to get a good group out there. Keen to see what these D02Gs can do!

PM sent

[NA_R33]

ill be there with some better brakes, and cheaper but wider rubber... Nankang NS2 265's on the rear. and Still with Yoky's on the front.

[MountainRunner]

NA_R33, it will be interesting to hear your comments on cheaper but wider rubber as last time I bought tyres they convinced me more expensive thinner rubber would give better grip due to the compounds etc.

[jlnewton]

There is a good few of us going, looks like its gonna be good one

if you to get the track license for $55. Its valid for a year. Then its $95 for 3 sessions on the track or $75 if you prepaid at least one day before the event.

We usually get there around 10am.

Sorry for working full-time and spending all Thursday night fitting a new set of extractors to the mini. Look it up, all the info you need is on the QR Web page, its just an open to the public day not a privately organised day.

But. . . . we usually turn up around 11 ish to try and get one of the undercover pits, I have to renew my 12month license which is about $55 I think and the sprints have gone up from what I have heard, $75 prepaid and $95 on the day????

You need a current license, at least long sleaves and long pants, and a helmut (you can hire them there). And then just get ready to have some fun!

[jlnewton]

Still no sign of my car.......it better be ready

Ill be sure to let everyone know how good they are after the auto hands it too jason... nah jk's. But yeah was only out there 2 weeks ago with the old yoky's on the rear. Before even hitting the track, the car has never hooked up as hard out of corners with the 265's.

[locutus_of_bris]

Looks like we're kinda organised. Car is currently in at mechanic (his reaction after seeing the figures from it's current wheel alignment was not good - hence it's staying the night). Should be back fri arvo, and all is set for a sat blasting.

Also bringing out a mates "power cordia" - with special smoke screen function ready for use. Hope the line holds together though, as the cordia is a trailer only job (and finally confirmed that the line does fit on the trailer just as well).

See you there JLNewton - can't wait to see how well your GTR peddles.

[jlnewton]

Hey, Dave. Actually bailing on this now as of yesterday. Have been invited to attend a track day at Darlington park on Sunday. Can't do both days and the Darlington park track is heaps more fun :)

Shall see you guys at the next one!

[jlnewton]

I am out of all track activities now thanks to an oil leak I created and can't fix

[GTRman1992]

Oil leak from where ?

[nizchic]

well we made it to the sprints and had heaps of fun, especially on the last free runs...but that was a bit naughty :chairshot teehee

best time Noddy got was a 1:00.8400, and plenty of consistant 1:01's

Was good to meet all you guys too. :Pimp2:
