Sorry to thread jack but just a quick one:

I'm about to buy a camera for capturing laps at Wakey. I've found one for reasonably cheap and kinda keen to grab it tonight if someone can confirm the following (rather than having to wait til tomorrow to ring Wakefield to ask, and maybe miss out):

- Are the Wakefield supervisors OK with (internal) suction mounted cameras?

This is the model I'm looking at: the Motorsports Hero on here http://www.goprocamera.com/

It can mount to a windscreen or any normal racing helmet.

Ben,

I can't answer for sure, but have been to a few track days there with plenty of people running in car camera's. Try asking someone on the Autosports forum or even Circuit Club.

Can i ask where you're getting it from? I may be interested as well.

Thanks

Bobby

4 extra wheels?

what you mean James?

You can fit them in no worries! I do! :(

Camera,

ummm....i have seen plenty of in car set ups however as bobby said, double check with the autosports crew. I have used the suction type for 1 even ant no one said anything, and then used a bar with Jon (primordial) made up which is a bar that goes from the passenger hand bars in the rear seats

yeah i might consider removing the rear seats............nothing dramatic, just want to try out the Nangkans against the toyo/dunlop see if there's any difference.

James,

Even with my backseat in I could still fit all 4 track tyres.

You'll be right :domokun:

yeah go reserve list mate, you better come!

hahah yeah as i was saying to liz, 3 month is too long a wait between hoonages.

Yeah I got my name down too, lets keep our fingers crossed.

I run sticky cameras and they havent said anything, but since they changed hands much has changed, they wont even let you watch from the pit straight barriers anymore, not even for photos and they were the best ones.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
