I've wanted to get on the track for ages and I got a R33 not long ago so I'm there, no matter what the date is.

Heard some talk about oil coolers, they something worth considering?

*just joined up to timeattack.com

Have you done anything to the mighty CIVIC to make sure you will be able to keep up with Jason and I?? Just remember you haven't got the mighty GTR to back you up now. It will all come down to driver skill. :P

sold the civic after 7 months of boring ownership. i'm currently in possession of of Honda Integra DC2 type R :P

The must-have 'family car' department has been taken care of by the wife and her new corolla :(

keep the car till at least the 1st track day of the year :sorcerer:

So all the hype of the "powerful civic" gone to waste. Oh well, I am sure the Integra is another story all together.

Yeah, I think I should be able to postpone the sale until the first few track days I feel.

Hi,

To get on the mailing list, go to www.TimeAttack.com.au and hit the join now button. You will then get emails about all up coming track days.

I have fixed the date, it is MAY 17. Sorry about the confusion.

Can everyone intending to come to the day make sure you have joined the above mailing list so I have you in the system and also send me an email booking in. If there are more than the two groups I antisipated then I want to make sure I have enough spots for everyone !

I am getting there a 7am to make sure I can organise my new license as my old license has expired. If you are doing the afternoon session only then I would say get there no later than 12 just to make sure you get everything done because it all gets rolling pretty quickly once the briefing has been completed.

Seems like it was good fun out there as usual~ kindda disappointed that my car wasn't ready for this after the boost issues during AWD shootout, especially when andrew brought the ultima down. So how did the times go fer everyone? Weather looked to be fantastic today, should have been some good times i reckon~

Cant speak for anybody else Jboy but Adam, Warwick and I had a great time. I think dem had a tunnafun in the auto taxi too.

Warwick had a couple of little niggling issues that prevented him from posting a time during the clubman rounds but I put the wheelchair through for a best of 1.08.9 Abd Adam just shaved me in his 32 gtr by a gnats dick with 1.08.72

He did this on his very last try and in sheer desperation I think. He couldnt bear the thought of the old man in his gtst dustin his gtr. :laughing-smiley-014: :laughing-smiley-014:

It was and absolutely awesome day. What a hoot. :P Perfect weather. For those of you who said you would turn up and didnt, you missed a bloody fantastic day. Bring on the next one.

Oh, and Noel, maybe next time I will let you keep up. :)

I got half a session on the clubman (very messy), I think I got a 1:08.xx, and 1 session on the sprint (1:04.xx) before I blew an exhaust manifold gasket :) There was a bit of carnage in the SAU group.....

edit: Boo to the people who said they'd come and didn't. Those spots could have been filled by people who actually did want to race....

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
