the bubble remains unburst :(

Hey Jess :D

It is all good, i know you are busy it is all good.

No spotting with the plates yet as i am not putting them on until the new front bar gets fitted and painted and the rear number plate bracket gets fixed.

How is your car going?

I have mesh on my front bar! I think it def a good idea because of the rocks n stuff that flick up from other peoples cars, just look at the stone chips you end up with on your paint! My mesh is black so it doesnt stand out like dogs balls!

Ahhh to dream!!

You don't think SMASA and all the other drag associated clubs hadn't looked into this option? Or even the ppl trying to purchase AIR?? unless you got a few hundred million laying around, don't hold your breath :cheers:

Last I heard, its still in the courts over issues in the contract for purchase between Bob and JaneBill Russo (of City Dismantlers). It has been decided and appealed a number of times, however currently BOB still owns it. I think they have finally got some people working back at the track now for Drift practice, BUT the drags require a full re-fit of the lights/timing system and a re-surface. however I think its unlikely Bob will spend the money considering he still may lose the court battle.

We wait some more :)

Would you guys travel interstate to do an event ?

Track or drag day may result in breakages. :)

At least if I break something at Mallala I can grab the Landcruiser, hire a car trailer and tow the car back.

It would be awesome though and I still may look in to it in the future. I'd love to hoon around the track sitting up Brisby's (Troy alias Roy) arse to zip past on the straights. ;)

lol Brisby (Roy) has some good experience under his belt; I doubt I'd keep up with him. :)

The Riverland Motorsport Group are preparing a new track up here. That have the land and stuff already..... On there web site they say:

Where is the track at the moment?

EPA Tests have been carried out and approved.

Native vegetation was consulted and approval given to clear the runoff area.

Local Council has given approval for the Complex.

Soil tests have been done ready for the ground preparation.

All plans for the Complex have been drawn up.

Pit area fence has been extended 50 meters to allow for permanent pit shedding.

Return Road base has been laid down along the pit fence.

The concrete barrier blocks are on site ready for placement

So cant be 2 far away??

    • 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.
