I disagree - $450 is an excellent price if the car is provided. All the best with the day it looks like a good concept

Yeah not bad value when you consider a full day event using their car - overheating, oil, fuel, engine, tyres, possible panel damage etc would be all their responsibility. We could really drive it like we stole it LOL

Where is the skid pan at Oran Park? Is it bigger than the one here in Canberra?

I can't speak for this particular course, however with the courses we have down here...

are P platers allowed? YES

Do i need a special license like those CAMS things? NO

$450. whats if knowing my luck the car catches on fire? how much? $$$0 <--my thoughts, its their risk and they have a duty of care to ensure safety i.e. extinguisher in place etc

Bring my own helmet? No helmet required here as it isn't a speed event, its a small track and you would be lucky to get over 60kph

is it ok for total Noobs to enter? like should i have done a motorkhana or something before entering into this? YES okay for noobs, no previous experience required so long as you know how to drive a car

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
