Went and saw it too. The King (of the mountain) has returned....

I'm there. As usual....

Kids... Can't drive.... I hope he doesn't have insurance because w@nkers like him cause our insruance premiums to rise. Especially with a car like that!!!

I don't want to sound like a b@stard but that was silly. Especially if your a P plater. Driving over the speed limit is dangerous. What if someone walked out right in front of you? Can you bear to live with the fact that you killed someone??? Something to think about. Please save your hunger for speed to the appropriate places, race tracks and drag strips. Hate to hear someone from here killed cause they were speeding.

I don't know about drag (as I'm not a drag fan) but for drift, set hard for the rear to make the rear end snappy when you give it a boot full through the corner. Then you have to adjust the front end so it's razor sharp and does turn in the direction you want it to (excellent grip).

Do you think?? :lol: My cousin's 180sx front left wheel came off at Wakefield and he went to the Nissan dealer down there asking for wheel studs. They said it would take a week or two.....:uh-huh:

In a RWD car, I like to rev to 4000 rpm and let the clutch out to it's friction point. Let the wheel get a bit of speed and traction then let the clutch out fully. It's kills the clutch but it's effective. Double de-clutching is for downchanging. Try down shifting from high RPM and your rear wheels will lock up for a split second. Things get very hairy if you are going though a turn!!!:eek:

I can breathe again.... Too bad Arrows aren't on the grid. And look, Davidson's out paced Webber in practice 1!! Shame about the fine though. I think most people on this forums are straight liners or street racers only.

Just reading the interview with the F1 managers and looks like I was right about Cosworth. They knew that Arrows was in financial troubles and forward a proposal to Jordan for next year. But I was wrong about Honda not wanting Eddie Jordan's team as it's Eddie's decision to go with which engine manufacture for next year.

Setting up suspension is something you have to play around with yourself. Everybody has different driving styles so a suspension setup which suits you may be different to what someone else likes.

What compound did you get? the RB74 or Comp 9? RB74 does make a bit of noise but the Comp 9's make a heap. This is normal. You can't have a pad that does everything.

Can I take the steering wheel of my car and let them use it???

Ichiban in Moorebank have a few cars there that are for race/rally purposes.

I reckon a GTS-t, not the GTS-4 cause both have the same motor but it's a real b*tch to fix things when the 4WD plays up. Also try doing an oil change on the GTS-4 and it's a pain in the butt!!! I know cause the GTR's oil filter is in a real tight spot. You can't get the oil filter from underneath the car, but just barely from the top.

The force is strong with this young one.

If it's not OEM, Cops will make a fuss of it if they want.

I lost a pair of sunglasses. Did anyone happen to pick it up?

Get an oil temp guage. Oil should not exceed 120 degrees. If you do track days regularly, a very good investment.

A few of my mates are coming but I don't know if their going to get on the track or not. Let alone if they turn up on time but I've passed the info on to them.

Clocked 250 in a NSX. About 200 in the WRX. And 190-200 before the speed limiter stopped the fun in the GTR.

Sure are. I paid $90 a meter!!!!

If you don't drop the tyre pressure, it will overheat the tyres after a few laps. Drop the pressure so when heated it will come up to normal road tyre pressures, thus holding the tyre walls up.

Here's another one. Pull out a Line of credit loan for a house. Pay off the house as you go. As the years rolls on the value of the house also increases so when you go to pull the money out for the R, they will look upon you more favourably. Also remember that in theory, your work salary will increase. Pay off about $80-100k then the prices of a R34 GTR V-SpecII Nur will decrease, and you can happily purchase one by taking money out of the loan....

Provided you have swaybars front and rear they will even each other out and you will get a slight oversteer. It is possible you will have to switch to Whiteline springs as the swaybars are made to suit Whiteline springs. But if you can adjust the dampers, then you can balance the car out.

What bonnet thing?
