is this just an open day thing? Whats the entry fee and on road (track) costs?

Starts at 4:30pm and finishes as 9pm.

You need to book. Fill in the form, fax it through, and you get a call saying your in.

I'm not organising the day, but myself and a mate will be running. So come down and say hello.

I did a 1:58. Very happy with that, since it was my first time out at the track in my GTR.

Basically stock car and started with a full tank of petrol with semislicks. I had a little understeer when fully stretched. I guess i need to speak to some handling geeks to dial that out.

But i had a fun night and will go back for more.

Padey,

Great to hear you enjoyed yourself....it turned out to be an awesome night, max 17 cars and 4 hours of open track!! I had the chance the take the 993 twin turbo for a few hot laps; nice bit of gear.....but a fully loaded GTR quenches my thirst anytime!!!

I had the the Baby GTST & the VW R32 out....you soon realise that 350 rwkw's (gtst) are quite a handful through the twisties... but oh so much fun when you blast past a Twin Turbo Porka!

I'm in discussion with the events managers about another Twlight session, will keep you posted!

Its been a while since I've posted on the forums but some of you blokes need to put your hand in your pocket occassionally & stop moaning about a measly $200....this is the best $200 you can spend, your driving Eastern Creek & also have the facilities of supercar intructors!!!

I was thinking the same, 200 is a good price!

was it done in groups? if so how many groups and what times did you get each? like 15 - 20mins group?

might keep an eye out for next one if thats the case!

Had heaps of fun for my first time on the track with my GTR.

So when is the next one? And what times were some of the other cars doing?

cheers

$200 - 4:30pm to 9:00pm
ouch...

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
