weather is even worse at wakefield remember.....

300 days hired per year * $2k = 600k per year income. Then consider operating costs - multiple staff, maintenance each year (track and grounds), insurance. The business is not worth $8mil to my eyes

You need to add the revenue from;

the CAMS State rounds 2 per year = $80K

the CAMS National rounds = $50K

the Historic State rounds 3 per year = $60K

the Historic National rounds 1 per year = $40K

the V8 development series round =$100K

You would want at least a 3% return on your investment after interest and tax (+ property always has capital gains)

$8M X 3% = $240K - Maybe

$12M X 3% = $360K - No chance

$15M X 3% = $450K - I don't think so Tim.

:laugh: cheers :)

I'm a definite!!!!

Won't be able to give the car a good thrashing at this stage... but will be able to putt around for a few laps.

dunno about overnight yet..... got some pretty festive Melbourne Cup happenings on the tuesday :happy: but we will see.

theres a open practice day at wakefield on the 21st of october (saturday) if anyone is interested..? me and some of the ACT boys are going for a blat. just thought i'd let you all know incase you wanna 'brush up' for the day of battle!!! HA!

He he - state of origin... funny

Can any of you guys actually drive? Put your hand up if your faster than Troy!

:hand up:

troy couldn't drive a greasy stick up a dog's ar$e. and besides that he is a NSW boy through and through, dont you hombres try and rob him off his roots.

at least scotsman has a real car not like those other southern belles with their pansy a55 R34s etc.

disclaimer: all my above comments may be completely untrue. it may in fact be me that can't drive.

Can't wait, JP tells me all GTR's in NSW are bling cars..

Is there anyone in NSW with a GTR attending this 'state of origin'?

I here that only GTS-T's go to these track days....

Is JP talking crap? Apparently nothing comes close to the Zed!! :ninja:

yeah hopefully we can drag Jason along his car goes OK. But it is a long standing and well known rule that gtrs lose their powers in NSW and get beaten by GTSts.

BTW Liz drives like a girl.

*shugs* could be the magnetic lines of the earth?

You coming along Chris? There are some great spots to spin out at high speeds in NSW like turn 11 at Wakefield and turn 6/7 at Eastern Creek :angry:

How can you spin at turn 11 if the track only has 10 turns you weirdo?

I was known to spin at turn 9 once or twice (or even 7 times) on my only visit there. :angry:

Infact Scotsman and I are the Spin Kings. Here's our efforts in the recent Dutton Vic at Winton. We'll be sure to bring these skillz up with us to NSW.

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
