If you just want to get out on the track for the sake of cutting some laps then go for it, but if your intention is going after the clock forget it. If I have nothing else to do i'll pop in for a looksie.

I don't think it will be too bad, especially since it's not full up yet.

Circuit Club days are usually pretty good, there is a lot of fast drivers in the club so you don't get held up that much.

FAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK

I just rang a work mate whop was out there, said he went through two tyre walls??

Yeah demolished one wall and got stopped by the second. He hit pit wall right at pit exit (flag booth) first. Lift-off oversteer from what I saw, it looked sideways at the 100 metre mark!

Painful painful, the guy was ok though I think, I'm sure I saw him standing next to the car later while it was on the tow truck.

An R32 Golf met its maker too, over cooked and slid off turn 1. So much carnage.

Ouch, not good at all >_<

Any times Matt?

Yeah it was a dissapointing night for me though. First time in the new car, first time on EC, but only got the first two sessions in and then the front drivers side tyre fell apart like nothing I've ever seen and I was forced to retire!

Ran 2 mins flat in it though in those two sessions. It definitely highlighted the need for stiffer suspension as I was apparently hardly keeping the inside wheels on the ground while I was cornering.

Ended up moderately ok after the night.

But now i'm trying to salvage any parts from the car, from previous mods that weren't damaged, to sell off.

:D

So if anybody is interested. Anything from the car that isn't damaged is up for sale. PM me.

have to start from square one. :D , its totally fu**ed. >_<

    • Dose will be able to confirm this more, but a 1.5 way IS a 2 way. It's just not as aggressive on one of the ramps. Changing from 2 to 1.5 I'm not sure how though.
    • No updates on the car but figured I'd share a nice outing. All the recent work paid off and I got it all together and out the shed for a car based pre-wedding celebration for a good mate of mine. Pretty casual cruise through the hills to a pub for lunch then out for some go-karting at The Bend. Headed down to Myponga for the night We stopped in at the reservoir before heading out down to the coast for lunch via the dam  By the end of the weekend away I covered 350km and the 32 generally behaved its self. A good Shake down after being apart before the Track day in a few weeks  
    • The front prop shaft from my GTR had very notchy unis, which obviously needed replacement but unfortunately uses the (usually) non-replaceable (staked) type.     A new shaft is something like $2K plus shipping from Japan.   I wouldn't even bother asking the local Nissan spares dept.     Rang Hardy Spicer but no go, which surprised me a little.     There's a place over Dandenong way that would make me a 'performance' shaft but un-necessary in my situation.   They claimed to be getting the equipment in to replace staked unis but couldn't give me a timeframe.   Anyway, long story short, found a place to do the work just 5 mins from me: https://knoxdriveshafts.com.au $420 (cash) and about a week later I have my driveshaft back.   Price includes balancing. Owner is a one man band working out of a shed in his backyard but from what I could see he's very well setup with some expensive equipment.  
    • Thanks. That's what I was after. One of the kits, the o-ring side is too big diameter. The other kit is a plate with a o-ring to seal and the hose connection offset.
    • oops that seems much easier lol.
