Making an expression of interest for anyone who would be interested in a Virtual Driving Range Golf simulator day?

http://www.golfcraze.com.au

Basically smash the ball into the screen, where it shows a virtual image of your hit, speed, range etc. Can also play a round on tiger woods golf game etc.

If you're not into golf you can at least see how fast you could smack someone with a golf club :yucky:

Website above has some pictures and more info.

Max people per simulator is 4, which I can get it down to $5 per hour (per person)

There is a place to sit and a bar to purchase your drinks/booze, althought seating is only for players :sick:

If i get enough replies in this thread ill plan a time.

Feel free to also post a time suitable for yourself and others as it will be easier to plan that way :laugh:

Sounds like fun. I'm in.

Also @ Albert park Golf driving range, you can buy/drink beer and aim for the guy in the ball picking up tractor :laugh:

I used to be that guy at the driving range here....only I didn't always get to be in the tractor....sometimes you have to do it on foot :D

Its fun because everyone aims at you, but most of them have no chance of getting you....

Then there's the people with a good aim.... :D

It's right across the road from the hospital though, so not far to travel :sorcerer:

I'm interested in playing an actual game of golf or going to a driving range, not sure of the simulator idea though.

I'm just learning to play so it makes for some pretty entertaining golfing. I can't hit it far but I can hit straight which is good!!

well sounds like there is a bit of interest and think it might be better idea to open this event to non-members.

In regards to MissJuz, the simulator allows you to analyse how and where the ball was hit on the club head, so you can adjust your swing and actually see the difference in distance travelled and how it curves etc. In my opinion best to learn via the simulator and then off to the course :)

These systems in Driving range mode, will show,

- Hit distance

- Face angle

- In/out swing path

- Angle of attack

- Club speed

- Ball speed

- Swing tempo

- Left/right of centre

- Left/right of path

- Toe/heel heights

- Sweet spot

So you will always know what your doing wrong, we also have a golf pro on site that will be able to provide tips & lessons to get you one step closer to paring more holes.

As this is indoor it would be best to leave it for night as in the day may as well go to an actual golf course/driving range.

Im thinking of after 7-8pm on any day.

Maybe even 8pm this Friday or Saturday.

Post up your preffered time and if you would like this open to the non-members. :P

Thanks

  • 3 weeks later...

If any mod could move this to general events, as I believe there may be more interest

okay noobs,

Did i mention cheap booze?

For more info;

www.golfcraze.com.au

today (2nd dec) golfcraze has free 1/2 hour play i think and will also have 101.1 radio station there handing out prizes and i think a live broadcast. They will be there at 2:45PM~.

If you uncertain about coming next week, could always get a free look/play today.

Could I also get a confirmation on who would be attending next week?

Thanks

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • 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.
