OK I have completed the form and details and emailed a scanned copy to the email on the form.

So the DT will occur sometime after 5.30 from the prgram? What time do u suggest we come down?

Cheers.

Chris.

Chris - if you read the supp regs, scrutineering starts at 2pm, so you will need to be there around that time.

Also, drivers breifing is at 3.45pm and if you miss this, you wont be allowed on the track.

actually I did but obviously didn't undertstand them! Thanks for the clarification.

It will only be driver training entries that are $70

Timed speed entries are still $140

But if you have already paid $120 (previous DT cost) with the intention of only doing Driver Training then contact Clarissa - [email protected]

Does that mean with the $120 i paid, i still get times sessions after the driver training?

As opposed to just driver training for $70.

If you enter the driver training group you have the ability to take out a more experienced driver to show you the lines, braking points etc. The driver trainers are usually WRX Club members with lots of experience. All Driver training instructors need the approval of the clerk of course. As a driver trainer you will not be timed at any stage of the event.

If you have already paid $120 to enter the DT group contact Clarissa at [email protected] and she will be able to deal with it.

If you want to enter as a normal driver is will be $140 and all sessions will be timed. If you have been to calder before you will be grouped with cars with similar lap times to the one you state on your entry form.

If you have track experience (but have not driven at calder) a standard WRX with a good driver is about 1:10 so somewhere a couple of seconds either side of that should see you right depending on your car and your experience.

What happens if the event is rained out? Do you still go ahead with the day?

The clerk of course gets to make that call on the day.

But if it is seriously wet the day wont go ahead. A slight drizzle wont stop a track day. Plus it's way more fun with a little water - trust me!

If their is standing water the clerk of course will call the day done.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
