We'll all get in. Saturday will be half empty (it always is) and they have a big field on the Sunday (120 usually - remember they send out 24 cars on the track at once with PIARC).

Over the 2 days you'll get plenty of clean laps but there will also be a few laps of door to door fun to be had as well with fields like this. Especially since PIARC don't group cars according to lap times so you can get some big differences in speeds (but we can all put our names down in the same group so it is no big deal).

And good luck getting Benno to PI even though it is a Sunday and so he has no excuse. Maybe if we all say his muscles are under developed (or at least the important ones are) we might be able to coax him into it. But I'm not saying it cause I still need him to look after my car :thumbsup:

I'm sure the car could do it. The problem is all you northern franginpani loving poofs are so used to driving around on your dinky little racetracks with tops speeds of 87km/hr that you aren't going to know what to do when you run out of revs in 3rd.

But I'll help you out Pete. Just remember the advise you gave me at Wakefield and use it at PI. "Keep it flat through turn 1 and you'll be right. If you lift off you are a poof." :dry:

LOL...you havent seen the footage of Fatz at "The Ring" ? I think most corners were flat ! :sick:

That, combined with my understandign of how much he loves his piss, especially when its free. Well he wont let a little thing like lack of willing car stop him from being showered with free beer for his display of lunacy. Not like Victorians, who like being showered in other things golden...farkin twisted units! :dry:

lol :(

I remember that advice myself, among many other interesting points

So, how fast through turn one, with and without 2/4wd/ aero aids? Seriously, but I doubt anyone goes more than 200, the rest is piss and wind :rofl:

Aero aids? Farkin Geezus...what? Fast enough that the id blow through the wall on the infield as easily as my troopers punch through a prophylactic :rant:

BTW - You're all a bunch of girls.

Especially you Bris!

Hope you have a healthy back! Because your going to be doing plenty of bending over picking up your teeth after this girl knocks them out :(

Depends how big your balls are...

4wd doesn't help you get around the corner any faster, it just helps you get out of the corner faster... the rest is in grip and suspension. On street tyres you may do 170-180 entry, on R comps, probably 190-200+ - like i said, how big are your nuts?

Im bringing the trolley jack and stands. So that means GTR drivers should bring armed security. Turn your backs for a second and your cars will lose the front driveshafts and an AFM will probably be unplugged as well.

Or my old favourite. When you have parked your buckets after the first session i will poor some oil under your cars so you all shit yourselves and park it for the day. This day shall be mine i tell you...MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HEY!!! who's idea was that!! :)

This thread has to be one of the most entertaining one on the forums!!!!

I'll definetly be there for this, but probably only the Sunday, don't need the Saturday practice... :)

Go Jack and this is going to be the biggest track day in Australia ever for GTR's and others. How many sleeps left???

I can't wait. Hey Jack I will follow you to learn this track which I have been playing over in my mind since I was there in Easter. I will then give it the button on the straight with the boost turned right up this time. I reckon with good condition and the bigger rear wheels and suspension geometry mods and more I will be 45's or better.

I've heard you hit like a girl anyways... My teeth will be fine! ;)

Hope you have a healthy back! Because your going to be doing plenty of bending over picking up your teeth after this girl knocks them out :domokun:

John - we'll see if we can get Frank and Kennedy down who have both run in the 43's before (both R33 GT-R's). But I'm also going to be gunning for 45's.

Also mate - we're coming up to Wakefield and EC on November 8th and 9th respectively.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
