Nice dude! none of me yet, but Aaron (m5) will be stoked with the one(s) of him. Thanks for that.

And of course thanks to everyone else, organisers, marshals, cooks, etc :mellow: Sick of hearing it yet?

thats only the first 12 of 137 vidz..taking a while to upload is all.

i'm pretty sure every-one who hit the skid pan had at least one vid of them taken

Martin, that is an ace vid on me on Super Nintendo! Thanks so much for recording, definately makes future events more enjoyable being able to learn. Good work :mellow:

yeah Alan I downloaded urs...was good mate...hear the applause on ur nice hand breakie....hehe was good.

LOL! Thanks mate. Anyone know what the white stuff is straight after the hand brake turn? I have been chatting to Paul R33 but dont know whether it is rings or clutch. The clutch was completely out at that point with foot flat on the accelerator.

Well i think that topped off yet another Great DECA.. I Firstly have to say a Huge thanx to Chris for letting me run with his semi's on the rear they made a HUGE difference and i have a new found love for them...

Thanx to all the officials and of course those who again did a fantastic job of making the whole event successful.

Thanx to Ray for getting my car ready for the event.

And also thank to Jarrod, Mel, Min, Chris, Bec, Simon for helping me on the way home. Cheers Ryan and bec for waiting with me and HUGE THANX to jack for again coming and saving my ass :mellow:......

Over all fantastic and yes front stage at the strippers was tops :)

The running of these days are getting pretty much flawless, or at least the club is doing such a great job that no one would even know if things weren't running well. Even running a bit behind and slightly changing the schedule goes smoothly! Thanks to the usual suspects who helped organise and run the day (club and officials).

Have done every single one of these things now in the taxi (even if the colour did change hehe) and they've all been top fun. My only problem now is after having driven an evo around the pan, I think I'm ready to hang up the sideways antics (or bad attempts at sideways antics). Team Evo ftw!

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.

Have to agree completely there Snowy. Drove Fooey's in one of the morning sessions and while I know it was still quick, wasn't that impressed other than the steering feel and response of the car. But a later attempt in the afternoon "funtime" session using some suggested driving changes and well....f**k me!!! brake, turn in and punch it at the right time and it's almost like the moment you accelerated it latched onto a couple rails and just got on with business! (thanks heaps fooey)

As usual, don't need to see the results but bring on the videos! :mellow:

What heppened to the car Mav?

Had a water line or something pop off

shot coolant all out the car.. Lucky Jarrod saw the steam and told me to stop or it could have been very very nasty.....

Car is at rays will hopefully have it back tomorrow as long as its something simple

thanks to everyone involved again. Thanks min for letting me take your car to fix my clutch, and mel and bigbird for helping me get it done! wasnt expecting to get home let alone run every stage! thanks to the guys who take the photos and videos too. goodluck mav, and here is to the memory:

lol, sounds familiar :D. Lucky indeed mav.

This was my first time as a spectator, made me wish I could have been driving. Oh well :yes: THanks to everyone that let me ride shotgun! Sammus, Tom, Troy and Ryan (and anyone else I forgot).

Soo much fun. I'll post all of the incriminating evidence against everyone once i get the camera of Melissa tomorrow. James, your in trouble.

Thanks to the people to made everything run to well throughout the day, quote of the day, " DONT GET OUT OF FIRST!" poite.

Wow mate, I was driving the #20 WRX (Dark Blue) and damn, that video footage blew me away! It didn't seem that fast when I was driving, but it gave me a really good idea of how the car was leaning/sliding around so I might be able to improve it a bit next time! Thank you.

Also, additional thanks to EVERYONE involved in the organisation - top entertainment during the day and just as good fun of the night :D Thank you all...

Now... where is my checkbook? I need one of them Evo thingamajigs

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
