but in the end, i'm only 19 with very little spirited driving experience, now b4 ny1 goes flaming me, i'm already booked for the next 2 track days

age is no deciding factor. i've only just turned 20 and i'm a far superior driver than my father (who is quite good) it all comes down to natural talent as well.

come for a drive with me one day and i'll demonstrate what i mean :laugh:

Im not sure. I was told it disabled other things as well.

who ever told u that, dont know what they're talking about

my point is.. if someone else is a better driver.. accept it, don't make excuses just accept it and listen to them!

you'll be far better off for it.

i like to listen, u get far more help than if you act like you know everything!

thats very true. thats what i wanted to say. i would like to meet some of these people some day, i feel my friends just arent real drivers. dont get me wrong, they can drive pretty well, but they're just.......hoons.

there's an idea karen. maybe we could have a SAU driver training day. maybe go to a skidpan with a few of the expert drivers in SAU and teach some of the less experienced drivers advanced techniques to help better drive their car?

how does that sound?

too bad theres no where we can go legally mike. i mean SAU use to have training days at the mt cotton training centre, until it was closed to us :laugh:

The skidpan at Willowbank is not a dedicated skidpan or so I've been told.

The closest facility like Mt Cotton is Gympie :laugh:

Mt Cotton/SDT has a lot of legalities to deal with eg residents, councils, legislation etc, so its easier for us NOT to lose over $1000 if we get ejected from the course due to someones perception, by simply not holding skidpan days :P

yeah i know, but who would pay 1mil for a race car. for that price you could order some very fast road cars that would more than likely keep up with or beat that. doesnt make sense?

True...

Honestly though if you had a million to spend, you could probably afford to stretch to 1.4 million....and buy a Zonda :D

At least then you would get new car smells :(

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
