Yeah, second the meetup point idea. I suppose the track opens at arond 8 am or so. Campelltown or somewhere close sounds a reasonable place to meet up.

good idea, :P i'm thinking one of the servos on the freeway with those big carparks could be better as a meet up point, quick and easy and saves people getting lost or having to take detours.

Yep im in for meet up in the morning :)

what time?? and I second one of the big servos on the hwy

In for a meetup also, but if your talking one of the servos on the highway past campbletown, it might be pretty hard to organise an accurate time.

Personally, I vote for either Maccas/Krispy K's Cumberland highway liverpool, or woodbine Macca's Campbletown way. We can do both, as long as someone from Liverpool gives the campbletown guys a call when we take off to meet us on the road.

I've met at Woodbine a couple of times in the past, pretty easy to find, and it's on the way for pretty much everyone from Campbletown, Sydney, Newcastle etc.

Maybe we should start another thread.

Hey guys still in but had my doubts last week but she is all good, I think I am going to float the car down on sat and stay in at Goulburn? Who else is staying in town on sat night?

might try and meet some of you before sun.....

Yeah the crossroads servo sounds like the go.

Roughly what time?

Krispy K's/ crossroads servo (the caltex I presume) / anythihng is fine by me. I stay at holsworthy.

I dont know 530? track opens at 8 am doesnt it? So we should get there by 8. What say

being a newbie on the track is there anything I should be doing before getting the ride on the track ( pretty stockish at the moment). Am getting an oil and filter change done this weekend. Anything I should be bringing/ doing before I get there? and precautions blah blah because I'll be driving back to sydney after the event as well.

from what i know and i dont know much..... basically have a check over everything and see that its all in good working order.

main things i would think would be fluids. Oil, Coolant, PS fluid, Brake fluid. See if theyre good or in need of a change or top up. also you should really bleed your brakes.

thats all i can think of, anyone else feel free to add or correct stuff that i have said.

Also, don't put the handbrake on straght after a stint. You can warp the discs. It's something simple, but cause it's an automatic reflex to put it on when you pull up, I've forgotten a few times in the past.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
