What's Going On With Everyones Cars?

[DJRIFT]

so has anyone got a link to a high clair hill climb?

what is the best and longest hill climb in tas?

[Funz]

well.. hillclimbs are approx 1km - 1.5km in length and average 34-53 depending on car. only ones ive done is Highclere near burnie, domain in hobart, collinsvale in hobart and the basky one.

can find apps and schedules at www.nwcctas.net or www.cmitas.org.

browse youtube for vids on all will link some vids tonight when i get home.

what one do you like best funz?

ive done legerwood lane and barigton ones as driver and passenger but i dont think i would go back to either for the expence of the travel and the value of driving time. but in saying that im hella keen to get my car to one

[DJRIFT]

ive had a look over the youtube links. they look good.

[Funz]

lake barrington one sounds interesting, wouldnt mind doing that.

[DJRIFT]

unfortunately they dont run the barington one any more due to a massively deteriorating road surface. its also got no grip at the best of times and at least one car gets totaled at every event

Minna Road was good too, its a quick one with good road surface and some exciting drops to steer away from!

Collinsvale is pretty fast... I pucked fourth in my old GTR there!

Domain is awesome if you have an Evo!

Dystart (and old one) used to be much like a flatter version of Minna Road.

Eagle Hawk Neck was the best and longest, maybe it will run again one day.

Update on my cars...

Evo III is all back together and heaps of fun to drive, although its still not yet been used in anger. Its for sale and is pretty much a fresh thing with plenty of cash throw at it in the near two years I've owned it. My dollar per kilomtre ownership ratio on this car is even worst than the GTR or the RX7... maybe the two combined! For anyone interested check it out - http://www.my105.com/12415

RX-7 hits the tilt-tray to go get the engine back in it today, fingers crossed I can get it ready to use at a circuit event next year. Pretty sure I have all the requireded parts now.

Already searching for the next toy in Japan, expect something very different from the previous!

[Funz]

yup, coulda been a lot worse. slid into the bank pretty parallel and it was a soft dirt/mud bank so it kinda cushioned it

[Funz]

[pandaae86]

would be good if they brought the ridgeway one back!

[SSHatch]

Oh well... At least you were out there having a crack.

Unlike that guy that turned up in his white GTR and then produced every excuse under the sun for not having a run... lol

[lawler]

Well picked some more of my gauges up so thought I might throw them in and take a photo.

(plz note this is the first go at doing the cluster and yes it is clear perspex and Im planing on using it as a base for a better one)

[Funz]

test fitted new kit.. not a fan of side skirts or rear bar so will only use front bar at this stage.
