Yeah i was pulling grit outta my eyes for 2 days, never again will i be caught out. Totally forgot to take my helmut too

25DET boxes are much stronge than 20DET/DE boxes. You don't get 20-30kg difference from some extra syncs.

le mans is still the only place with longer track. the one in cheltenham is indoor, and slow by comparison. If you go le mans, take helmut with visor... i learn painfully no visor hurts lol.

It's like slipping over in the supermarket and bumping your knee, and not logging it with them. 10 years later you wanna get the supermarket to pay for costs... fat chance.

So 1:36 down to 1:31? Sounds a bit more reasonable than 1:45 to 1:30 Good to do mods and see times drop bit by bit

Wont be a cost for the track day spectator far as im aware. Maybe just gold coin for S'n'S. So cheap

Accomm costs - totally in your control via the website widget. It was easier to do it that way. Not 100% on costs yet. Going to probably have 2-3 package options. Stuff like DVD inclusion etc. But a bare-bones pack... Trackday + Show'n'Shine, less than $200 without question. Just don't now how much less yet, and we making sure everyone gets heaps of track time so limited entry to justify people coming interstate and stuff. Show'n'Shine is only like $5-$10 as just have to cover the security guard hire & other similar costs. BUT there are BIG f**k off trophies for track day, show'n'shine etc. Its looking like trophies alone will be costing at least 3-4k, so it's not being done half hearted All that will be put up later once classes are worked out (2-3 weels)

Website is now up www.saunats2011.com

Any of you people crossing the river for SAU Nationals?

Have a read here Ant: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/365787-k-sport-brake-review/ Read the whole thread - it'll take you a good 15-20mins, and Bris's response is very interesting to that other review. Hence I'll do one for SAU and ensure it takes into account as much as i can, also comparing to a set of Alcon from Aaron @ Import Monster who is going to donate the workshop and stuff to help us out I wont be able to a back to back @ track, given my current "brakes" resemble more of an angle grinder than anything else, so it wouldnt be reasoanble. I'll rely on Chris's input for that section given he's done that and then did a 1:19 with them on @ Sandown already. End of the day if a D2/G4/Q234 kit offers for instance - 90% of the performance of an Alcon, well under half the price. I don't think there is a point of argument

Yep when its sorted - i shall update here Being worked on ATM

Id say the old brakes weren't in A1 and in need of pad/Rotor/fluid/line, so the comparison is of two ends of field!

Website will be up for everyone else after 7pm tonight people. It looks awesome, is awesome - Entries to follow in a few weeks as sponsorship info will be sent out to those that have request over the weekend! There are quite a few businesses already keen to jump on-board which is great to see!

I'm sure Birds would have indirect access like i do Shipping for a diff, via air, will be around $80-$100 from Japan IIRC.

I never had an issue whilst i was rowing 16/17/18 But i remember my last "poor" gym effort in 2007/08 it ended up being unable to do benchpress after the weight increased over a few months. Kinda stopped once the pain set in and did nothing about it Off to Physio tomorrow, been there before for other things and they are very good compared to a lot of others so no doubt i'll get a decent answer or at least more investigation. But ye, gotta slowly build up there as I know it's 100% my weakness.

Just hold ya horses. Wait till Tues night. Then worry about "where to" with regards to changing parts, more labour etc. Patience for now, there is no obvious reason to spend any more money on parts at this point.

Yeah squats and deadlifts are going into the mix from next week. Also thinking of adding in military press in place of shoulder. Shoulders are always a problem for me, get a tendon/muscle grab/catch feeling so booked in to get that finally looked at too as no doubt it'll just get worse.

Yeah its a fair wake-up, but to be expected after years of neglect. Nothing that can't be fixed with hard work. Without major details excess protein isn't a problem for me. I actually need a bit of saturation more than 'average' as my body dont process it that well. Plus my Irish build I'm designed to be lanky lol. Took me 10 solid years of dedicated beer drinking to get a minor pot. I'll be happy to have some fat!

Not being ‘too’ particular about diet at this stage. I generally don’t eat a lot of sugary/fatty foods too much anyway. I just want to put on a heap of size more than anything. A rough daily intake for me will be something like below. Morning: Bacon & Eggs (2), maybe some yoghurt Perhaps an orange Morning Snack: WPI Shake, few almonds Perhaps 2-3 boiled eggs Lunch Beef/salad The land of goat sphincter rings roll or Chicken/steam rice/veg Sometimes throw a few olives in there and some Flora pro-active butter Pre-workout: Creatine Post-workout: Creatine & WPI Shake Dinner: Steak/Chicken /w steamed vegies (broccoli/carrot/califlour) About an hour after, psyillium husk Some fruit if im still hungry an hour later Sometime in the early AM: WPI shake and a leak I always have boiled eggs in the fridge so if i've got the munchies at any point I'll just dive into those. Obviously lots of water all day as well. Feedback welcome

Eating like a horse at the moment too – 4 if not 5 solid means a day, every 4 hours if possible. On advice from Piggaz last w/e I’m also gonna start smashing 500-600ml of water before bed… Hopefully waking me up for a leak around 2am and smash a protein shake down my head to keep everything in order. I also have a mentor getting in my ear which is helping me too. 40 yo body builder from work – big unit. Will get some pics when I can. He is helping draw up a program as well once I’ve settled in getting some basic strength down and dusted. Also put me onto a super-cheap supp site he uses: www.bulknutrients.com.au So Creatine and WPI is on order and should be here next week. Not going to get any more supps than that – better off just eating

Realised pretty quickly on I cannot do any dips. So they are out for the time being until I get some more strength. Used to do 3 x 15 when I was 17 @ 75KG’s so a long way to go. Added in Tricep Pull Down in the mean time. Also I’ve had to allow 3 or 4 days in-between sessions at the moment as still in quite a bit of pain with such poor condition. No point going when I’m still broken and only able to lift half weight. Chucked in Chest Press as well as arms are feeling much better even after just 2 sessions Session 3 Pec Deck 3x150 Chest Press 3x100 S.Press 3x60 Tri pull 3x70 sets of 10 BB Curl 3x 22.5 Leg Ext 3x105 Leg Curl 3x65 set 10 Session 4 Pec Deck 3x150 Chest Press 3x120 S.Press 3x 60 last set, last 2 reps @ 50 Tri pull 3x70 BB Curl 3x22.5 last reps 10 Leg Ext 3x120 last reps 10 Leg Curl 3x75 last reps 10

Been at the gym now for 3 weeks and just building up a base. Using mainly machines at the moment just to get some basic strength going as I’ve got sweet F/A Interestingly I’ve been able to add weight and maintain almost the same reps each session. No idea what the machine weights actually are. Just going off the numbers as reference. Aiming for 3x8 of each Session 1 Pec deck 3x135 S.Press 3x50 Dips. 8, 3 BB Curl 3x20kg Leg ext 3x105 Leg Curl 3x65 Session 2 Pec Deck 3x135 S.Press 3x50 Dips 3 Tri pull 3x60 BB Curl 3x22.5kg last rep 7 Leg ext 3x105
