Bloody rain!! :lol:

Still, had fun in my zed though, drifting out of corner 4.

Went back for a second go and track was fine, bloody weather!!

Still, it was good meeting up with other members and seeing some tough liners. B)

A couple of mod cars went out for a spin, man they look like a fun toy.

I had an absolutely AWESOME time.

Myself and PORTS :) and Jeff/Geoff stayed there pretty much until the end. The track was absolutely dry, and we had a great deal of fun.

Those mod cars were absolutely awesome. They were damn quick around the track, and probably did about the same down the straight as me :O about 210km/hr

Bloody quick little things if you ask me. But I forgot to take any photos.

By the way, where was UAS John ???? I suppose he couldnt find a big enough anchor to stop the zed from leaving the track ;). Just jokes.

John is just one of those front bum, skirt wearing, keyboard warriors who is too scared to actually bring his car to the track. If I remember correctly I think below are your actual words

I contacted Aaron direct and took my money and said no probs asn sent a receipt. Might be full now might be plenty of spaces left only one way to find out.  I would suggest contacting him if you actually want to go not just want to know if you can go. Don't want to sound to bold but don't want to mess things up for future events and wasting his time.  As from past experience has unfortunately shown there  has been a lot of false starts as such, from people beer talking and not turning up.

Yeah yeah bla bla and to think I was concerned it would not be a stinking hot day as can be this time of year. At least I paid and did not rev it up and not pay and not turn up. I would have stuck it in the wall yeasterday, speed boat no good with slicks only on her. Weatherzone.com.au radar showed ugly all day as well as my zed scouts Ron and Wayne ( Ports) told me. We spoke on the phone throughout the day and at about 1pm still wet all over. The slot car was all reved up to come smack Skyline too. When or where is there any other days this year????????? Preferably Oran or the Creek.

Front bum, love that one Paul you bloke you.

john, me hearty, it's all just land lubber talk to me... beer talk indeed!

yes it was wet. I was down in goulburn were we had some major storms yet we still raced friday, saturday and sunday. and we (with spencer driving) got down to 2 hundredths off the class record on a drying track. plus i managed to spin it off coming on to the back straight which was a nice brown underwear moment. all in all a top time!

Tommy I'm not sure.

Wizard was taking the shots and only during the rain. I believe that most of his shots didn't turn out due to the shitty light, but I'll send him a PM and see if he got any others and post here. B)

Sorry, i was having too much fun. I do believe there are some photos on a zed forum, but there are only 3?

Ports - Do you know if there are any more ?

Checked with the wizard, and there are no other shots. :D

      S15 Spec R

      Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next.

      The FD RX7 is the best looking 90's JDM car

      This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?

      Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
