The next Saturday drift practise at Barbagallo will have a special beginners/novices training session. We will be using the area over the back which is the old pit area and setting up some cones to practise h/brake and 1-2nd gear tight entries.

It will be run by the WASCC and I along with Smooth Sullivan, Borneo ( hopefully), Ranceman ( not rainman :) ), Kool Kizza ( I hope ), Big Boy Brown and a couple of others I haven't made up names for will be alternating throughout the day doing 45 ish minute sessions.

You will have to be a member of the WASCC ( which you do to drift at Barbagallo anyway ) , pay your normal practise day entry and there MAY be a small surcharge to do the novice session.

It is an attempt to help the new guys who are struggling with the fast layout of Barbagallo but don't want to travel all the way to Collie to have a go.

Cheers

Ken

    • 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.
