Just so you know there isn't a cent left over from this day. My main sponsor actually picks up the left over costs which is usually the trophies.

Also have a look at the latest Fast Fours and you'll find a 6 page write up on the last day I organised :thumbsup::D:(:yes:

And thanks for posting it elsewhere :)

Its all good Ang... :thumbsup:

Just so you know the in's and outs Dale, I enquired about a day for SAU early last year...

The hire of willowbank generally is in excess of $7500 for the day (back in 2006 when I priced it)

I think there were some serious conditions at this price also, like it was a 10am til 5pm run time and no entry was allowed to be charged at the gate, no food stalls would open, traction compond was $1000 extra, 7 support staff which means in a accident it would take a while to clean, so on and so forth...

So the cost for one of these days is fairlly heavy to begin with, hence the $90 per car entry and believe Angela every cent gets chewed up...

But think of it this way, a TnT night you pay $38 and would be lucky to get say 4-5 runs in before they shut the gates...

This is cause over 200 cars turn up every time and a tnt has a shorter run time, so imaging what you could do with half the cars and an extra couple of hours up your sleave... :happy:

At this event there is a limited number of cars, so your gonna get in at least 15 runs maby more...

Id be there myself if I didnt have other things on that day...

      Bah! I can't see the point in custom number plates at all. I went to the rego office, fished through a box of "premium" plates (the ones that had the "not as tall" option for the front plate) and picked the one that had a 32 in it. That's the limit of the effort and cost I will put into number plates. The only plate that I'd consider paying for would be 2332, but that's not possible here because it already exists from probably 90 years ago, and it would cost a fortune to obtain it, if it were available.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      After chasing my tail with LS results..... and cheaper than a turbo swap... How confident are you that the dyno is accurate relative to other results? How fast is the car - What MPH does it actually run? Is this similar to what people running this power would expect?

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By Spearzy999 · Posted

      Hi mate I am having an identical issue with my 98 R34 GTT. The engie suddenly cuts out under load at about 3-4k, black smoke out exhaust. Almost feels like traction control kicking in. No CEL but still going to check codes later today. Car was sitting in the shed for about 5 months before hand and only idled a few times, took her out with about 1/4 tank, filled up and thats when the issues started happening.  Threw on a spare set of coils/harness and checked plugs which was no help. Recently had fuel pump/filter changed so surely thats not the issue unless condensation in fuel, I just havent had the time to drain it It's running a hi flow turbo, bosch 1000cc injectors, walbro 450L, Z32, Nistune etc... All about 2000km old.

      I always wonder where the obsession with legal/illegal spacing on number plates in the UK comes from. Because it comes up in comments in every UK-based video I see on youtube. From my point of view all of your plates look a bit odd. Just because there are no markings whatsoever. In Australia we have the state that has to be on it. In Europe you get stamps and state logos. Yours look a bit like a throwaway draft that people then stuck with. And attached with blu tack so that it falls off at the slightest disturbance. Not trying to hate, but it's interesting how things are done in different countries. Do you have to follow a lettering convention when choosing a custom plate?

      Hybrid sounds like a supercharger... It's half a turbo, with a belt to drive it! Oh wait, they're just called super chargers...
