$75.00 gets you entry, a momento pack, and entry to the track, and entry to the concourse. It does not let you compete at the track, or attend the trivia night. It will also cost your partner, or additional people extra money to attend the "Welcome barbeque" and the Farewell Barbeque, where your entry fee of $75.00 covers these two items as well. Oh Presentation dinner is $65.00 per head, and no kids allowed. Oh no kids allowed to anything basically.

I feel the need to respond to this post......

"Oh no kids allowed to anything basically." is a little shallow and to be honest.... far fetched...

Just so everyone has the right information.

The basic package as Cazz mentioned, gets you to the welcome bbq, the farewell breakfast, and the concourse entry. It also gives you some merchandise and the ususal show bag.

If you want to come and watch the cars at the track, not only are you most welcome, but it will cost you zip.......... as if you are going to be charged you to do that...!!

Now.. the kids bit.

Fri night - Welcome bbq = kids welcome

Sat = Sprint - kids welcome but must be supervised (as in ALL sprint events). Should the kids/partners not be interested, they can go on the country drive.

Sat night = Trivia night. Aimed for EVERYONE = kids welcome.

Sun = Concourse. Anyone is welcome... ohh... and should partners/kids not be bored, we have arranged a shuttle bus which do a loop around the island stopping at several tourist attractions. It will generally run on the hour, so if you get off at say 11:15, then at quarter past each hour (allowing for traffic) it will swing past where you can jump on and get off where ever you like.

Sun Dinner = The only reason kids (at this stage ) aren't allowed is simply due to room. We originally had the Conti booked - that is in receivership. The next available option is the golf club which simply cannot squeeze everyone in and yes it does cost more. If you feel that your kids should take priority over Nationals entrants, then perhaps it's a case of agree to dis-agree, as I thought the entrants should get the first option.

So, if the above does not cater for kids, then I don't really know what does.....................

If you have ANY questions, simply ask. We don't bite, and those who know me, know not only do I call a spade a dirty big shovel, but that I will give you an honest answer. I don't have anything to hide (except for the fact I hit a pole in my daily driver due to my own fault.... oh bugger.!) I don't care for office politics and will happily help anyone in any way I can.

Cheers and hope to see you there.........

Im in as of now, and competing! two weeks in a row. My car is going to hate me. i Just put it all back to standard, now it all has to go back on... its a hard life... poor mate busted his gearbox in his datto, and he needed to fill his spot or its money down the drain.

1;56, here we come.

Do we know of anyone else here thats competing???

Hey All,

Not long now, cant wait.

I was going to be competeing in the sprints but decided not to as Im already paying a nice little bundle in accomodation and enrty/dinner fees and am currently out of a job so have to try and save money at the moment.

Will be good to meet a few people from here, havent been on any of the cruises yet. Do know a few people already from the 31 club (cazz, syphon & wheezy ;))

Cheers,

Gagz

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
