All,

It looks like the next chance we have to drive on a track is in 3 week on the 1st Sep 06.

Usual requirements, L2S or C3 licence needed, helmet, long sleeve and pants non flammable, road worthy or track worthy car.

8.30am sign in with a 9am start, 20min alternate sessions until 5pm.

$120 per driver no bookings needed just turn up on the day.

Additional info at http://www.eastern-creek-raceway.com/

Spectators are free.

Let me know if you are coming, we will grab the open garages at the east end behind the pits.

I will be there in the R32 & maybe the R34.

Catch ya out there.

paul, i'd give EC a ring and see if you will be able to run at this. Biante round is on the 2 and 3rd and most of those guys will be running on the friday practice. EC generally give priority to those guys. I dont know if you would still want to go anyway as the track will be packed out.

cool cool, I would still check if that's how they are running the day. the last one I was at I was driving with the NC licenced guys and I can tell you it was pretty hairy! they don't take any prisoners.

What they often do is seperate the cars into their class groups (not licence groups) when they have a big pre-meet practice.

They may not do it for this one though, in which case you would have nice clear track for your sessions, and some entertainment in the other sessions :)

    • You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?
    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
    • And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.
    • No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.
    • Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
