Nice day, good fun , plenty of track time, just wish i had my car there to join in:(

Still enjoyed myself watching everyone go round though,

the Corsair challange was worth the price of admission alone. :O

Pits to ourselves

Yup, it was a great day. I got to drive 4 cars throughout the day. breaking the 1.40's in the corsair challange was one of the highlights, the next was putting the 2 tone territory through its paces. I did 175km in the GTR, 10 laps in the territory and about 8 laps in the corsair, and I rounded the day out with 3 laps in Abo's weapon, until the fuel light came on.

All in all I think I spent more money on petrol then track hire, thats the way it should always be.

I will continue to chase OP for L2S days and keep the post up and current. As it gets hotter I would encourage everyone not to do too many track days.

Thanks to everyone who played in the corsair challange, the car lasted so I cant see why it wont keep running, with the entry fee's , john should be able to keep the car running.

Yup, great fun day. It's also so relaxing to go to a track day and only have to organise myself.

Tried out the new diff. Was up to 2:30am the night before putting it in at Majanals place in the mountains.

It definitely changes things. I came down the straight at about 200km/h, stabbed the brakes for turn 1 then a little gas to turn 2 but was too much because of the diff and lack of rear end grip (my semis have had it), so at about 160km/h I spun around and off into the kitty litter. Had to get towed out but no damage.

That's my first big lose ever on the track. Kind of fun although I would have preferred to do it at a slightly slower speed.

Also enjoyed taking the mighty MADGTR for a spin. The GT-SS's really are great on that engine. It almost feels like a non turbo it's so linear. You really feel the extra weight when braking but the grip is unbelievable.

WHAT A BLAST

I had a GREAT day....

Very different to a normal track day.........sooo much track time, and no pressure.

Must get an in car timer,(thanks Paul for the lend) it really does improve your times when you have instant feedback on each lap.

Being first up in the Corsair Challenge Car, i obviously babied it too much, turning in a 1.46, but hey, the clutch really was crap, and i didn't wish to be the one to spoil everyones fun. I'd have been drummed outta here if it crapped itself. I gave it another go later, on a semi oiled track, redeemed a little dignity with a 1.43

Much was learnt this day (must take jerry cans fulla fuel)

A Special Thanks to my fellow enthusiasts who helped create a perfecty day!

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
