Great pix guys!

Thanks again everyone for coming and making this another successful event - and to CarSales and Provex for their generous support.

MASSIVE thanks to Westy, Ben, Min, Jar, Sarah, Adam and Adam - and everyone else who helped out during the day. Especially Dan the BBQ king - best evar!

Everyone competing is getting much better - I think this was our lowest incidence of cone-hits, so the results for the day will be extra close! Bring on some more photos - and the next round in May :huh:

Thanks to the organisers of the day and also the marshalls/timers. I really appreciate you standing out there in baking sun so I can hammer the car round.

Great Saturday night and Chris/Mav on stage at the strippers had me just about in tears with laughter.

Ace weekend all round :huh:

Was one of the best ones I've competed in yet...I missed out last feb, so was my first time doing those particular events, and they were a lot of fun :laugh:

Managed to not hit a single cone all day up until the afternoon battles, so I'm pretty happy with that effort :P

Thanks to the organisers etc...

PRIORITY ENTRY TO THE NEXT ONE :huh:

Once again, another successful DECA full of quick runs, awesome cars and friendly people.

I personally had a ball as a competitor this time and I congratulate Snowey and Chris for organising another great event! Special thanks also go to Bec, Min and all the other volunteers who withstood the sun to help run this event so smoothly.

Although my car isn't setup very well for the skid pan, I still have fun where I could and I've finally paid off my debts to those I've promised a drive to :huh:

It was worth getting BURNT to see Jeff's N1, David's 10sec Monster (Lucky there was no FIRE BAN lol), Mr Brisby.....racing. (Gotta love the Gate)

Well done Garreth, clocking the fastest time on street tyres, go R32gtr :huh:. Very close to Garreth is one of the J-spec crew wide body R33...and Pete as well, great effort on street tires, some cheap Hankook too.

Those who are competing on street tires might like to find out which Hankook is it off Pete.

Hey all,

That was another great day up at DECA and the level of driving ability across the field was really impressive. I believe some of the skidpan events have even been won outright by RWD cars running normal street tyres. I can't wait to see the final results as it is going to be damn close up the top. It should be a good championship this year. It is a testiment to how much these days have improved the driving ability of everyone as well as mainly being a stack of fun to do.

As mentioned and can be seen in the pics it was another hot one and so my appreciation goes out to everyone who helped run the day. If it isn't for this help we can't run these days so it's great appreciated. And I will be putting together a priority list for the next event for everyone that did lend a hand (if they wish to enter).

Finally a big thanks to the President James for letting me run around in his Stock Cheater Evo. Straight out of the box they are an impressive machine and once you understand them damn easy to drive fast. And thanks also to Leewang for the run in the Purple Monster. It's a beast and there is nothing wrong with it on the skidpan mate! You just need some practise. :huh:

But everyone keep the pics and vids coming. They are great.

Hey guys,

Thanks to all the officials for putting up with the heat so that we can have fun, and Snowy and Chris for organising another great day.

Had an awesome day in team cheater evo! It's a very different beast to the WRX! I think it'll take a few more decas to get the hang of it! :mellow:

Can't wait for the next one...

:)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • 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.
