It sure was a nice day to be racing.

It was good to be out there again throwing the car around :)

Jack, thanks mate. I'm happy with the time all things considered. I'm sure more track experience and some further tweaking wouldn't go astray. Also, I now have a better appreciation of how fast you guys doing sub 1.03's are going - feels like daylight between 1.04 and 1.02!!

The 'drive home diagnosis' revealed a leak on the boost side so i think a cooler hose or something like that has come loose or split.

Matt, 1.05's for your setup is fantastic. Well done.

Aaron, that thing is crazy. Congrats on the PB. If there ever was a day you'd pull off a PB, today would have been it. I hope you have settled the score with this track :D

Well done to Justine too, I'd hate to think how much slower I'd be on street tyres so the 1.10 is a top effort.

Good to meet Kon too and hope you enjoyed your first track day. Good to see the supra out there. I'm sure you would have learned heaps and probably have a big list of things you'd like to do to the car as well.

Congrats to all with great times all round. everyone cracked their best times. the weather couldn't have been better.

Bloody good times from the drifters. Impressive !!

Good to see Archie cracking sub 105s. That's cool.

shame about Jacks sparkie tip. Made my flat seem pretty insignificant. I reckon with a few laps today Jack would have been in the 101s for sure.

Let's hope Racepace can sort it so we can take these beasts for a blast around Eastern Creek in a few weeks. That track is killer in V8 Supercars 3.

Good work all.

Archie, - obviously that big single was working well!

My clutch/master cylinder seems to have given up on the 3 flying lap of the day - so Ben will be getting more business next week - Jack and me! I hope it's not a gearbox as R32 boxes are not exactly thick on the ground.

Looks like it could be the battle of the '32s now!

Regards

Andrew

What a GREAT day. Started out shit, blew a tyre which took nearly three hours out of the day. Got back out there on some better rubber and it was on! Cant believe we got 1.10's Juzz, well done. Bring on DECA!

I have to say a big thanks to Benny for bringing me tyres from the other side of town, and Ricky for putting them on the rims! It looked like it was all over at 10am. Also goodwork with the camera bigbird.

Congrats on everyones PB's, and thanks to the WRX club for a great year of trackdays!

Andrew

Yeah she's working ok but i have to fight it a bit as the power comes on - not very linear at all.

Twins are where it's at, unless i go 3 ltr of course :D

Spewing you had an early retiremant and the fact that we were in different groups. I would of been keen to follow you around to see the difference.

I hope it's only your master cylinder too.

Sounds good, but we also need to keep some 33's and 34's honest too........here's hoping!!!

No worries, I'll make sure we are in the same group next time.....I know people :D

No probs frysie, anytime! Watching today made me wanna get my act together and get out there some time soon.

Thanks for the kind words people. It was a really fun day!

Game on wise guy, Deca here we come!!

Actually I don't have huge expectations for Deca, got my own personal goal of getting a top 3 in the 2wd class, best result has been 5th. It would merely be icing on the cake if i finished in front of you with a place :( hehe Eek, i'm not competitive, I'm just a girl (Like the song!!)...

Was an awesome day! Better than expected actually. DT wasnt bad at all, picked up many helpful pointers and progressed quite well through out the day, just glad i entered DT cause i had no clue what so ever during the first session.

Thanks Jack for the tape and holding my belongins with your things, hopefully next time u can take me for a spin and show me y these GTR's do 1:01's - 1:04's and Supra's dont :(

Damn Archie your car hammered down that straight with the big single

Aaron, your car is on drugs man

Well done Matt, u know u've done something right shaving off them 2 secs and all for PB

Had some issues with cheapo tyres, dampeners and ride height. I will need to raise front end a bit next time and soften up the dampeners, my car felt like i was going bush bashing through the outback.

Cant wait for next years season to start :O

Heres a few pics

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
