Next time perhaps we can get cones that don't like to jump out in front of my car. All in all it was a great event and I can see it just getting better.

they must be the same cones that jumped in front of my car... you can't trust em LOL

woooohah.

what a day. I had a good time and came up with some decent times. It was my first time at a timed event and the track was very tight and scary in places.

I was the one that came off the track and it was a fairly scary experience. on my previous run I did a 1.46 and it was a very tidy run.

Coming over the last crest downhill (just after the cone that was next to the oil) i started to oversteer i lifted off and got the car straight, but by then my front left was on gravel and it was all over wink.gif i was doing about 70k's. after that it was a 20 metre slide down dirt and a big scare.

no one was hurt and there was no damage to the car. I really think the course was too dangerous for first timers with hipo cars.

big thanks to the organizers. they did a good job and their efforts were greatly appreciated. it ws also really nice to meet such a good bunch of people.

It was a good day and I would like to say a big thanks to all who put in on the day Top effort!

and we cant forget the cooks for the much needed feed thanks also.

no worries

i think me and my co-chef (forgot his name) set a world record for the longest time to cook snags, that wind was a killer

Was good to meet some of you. And i've learnt it is much . . . much harder to drift on that skid pan then elsewhere. It may have had something to do with the 2 feet of water. And my noobish track day skills.

What times did people get on the back course i managed a 1:45 point somethingorother

EDIT: NEVER MIND USE THE WRAP UP THREAD

Bloody awesome day indeed! W/end was full of laughs and good driving! I enjoyed the skid pan... but the hill climb section was absolutley awesome.... the taxi flew around it!!

A huge thanks to the organisers, event supervisors, etc etc etc...

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
