Cody.. hmm dunno

Paul was a ring in.

Mike was a ring in,

and Bruce got a whole new car!

Cam and his schweeeet GTR went home due to ill health :thumbsup:

Andrew and Markus murdered the 180SX

and Paul left early so he could vote!

I drove like a sissy all day (busted ankle) that stuffed my points really bad!

Cody skidded like it was on old bad habbit

and Lars the skid addict already wants more skid days :blink:

Sorry about that Lars..

pain killers were in overdrive and it made sence in my head when i posted it all up! lol

all fixed..

Crap.. I just realised that the slugger old VB beat me! oohhh the shame,

What u on about Kody..

its true! admit it..

I rang Bendix about my brake problem, they didn't want to know about it or any other issues I had. So now i dont want to know them! I am looking at romoving the set up from my car and going a totally different brand, a brand that beleives in after sales service! Perhaps it wont spin my car around on the time trials next time.

Edited by psi

I wouldn't be so full of yourself Kody,

I seem to remember Warren taking your car for a spin and beating your time in your car.. and he had never driven it before!

Now that has gotta suck X10!

beating me should have been really easy. I couldn't feel anything below my knee and the Doc swore at me when i told him what i did on the weekend! on the other hand.. He was not surprised.

Not only could I not feel much, It hurt(and still does) to pull my foot back.. So, if you couldn't beat me, you should have gone home and cut up your car and ur permission to drive! lol!

big baby got burnt good! aww.. (pats ur submissive head)

now.. what we gonna do next time..

I have a plan! but that will surely change 15 times before next skid session. lol

I have idea's from Lars.. and Bruce.. and Leigh.

anybody else wonna throw their 3 cents worth into the equation?

your idea is noted..

hmm, I can just imagine you doing a hand brake park in front of your local cop shop for a demo..

I'm guessing that you are talking about a 180 degree park, and parkin the car on the other side of the road?

I have already been givin the idea by both Bruce and Lars..

I started out trying to get you guys to be smooth and precise,

never thought that it would create skid monsters like you guys(not that i can talk!)!

SAU exculsive skid day comments..

Like always, The SAU 'group' was a great crew and behaviour was top notch.

I will be posting up results when i get a little more time to do it..

I beleive that everybody learnt alot from the tuition from the tech session, and that the info was of good use in the time trial.

Everybody was driving a great deal better by lunch time and I am glad to say that I am more than happy to welcome SAU back for future skid days!

Like always with the SAU skid day, the day is restricted to members first, sometimes somebody pulls out, so SAU ask for other skyline owners to play for the day. If you want to get onto that list, please contact 'Pear' on the forum!

Thanks

Aaron

I thought I should also mention that I have a youth group that do the car wash. I supply all the gear, including Mcguires car wash.

Its $8 for a wash and chamioux.

They are raising funds to go overseas and build schools for orphans of war, all money raised goes to the build project.

So bring $8 and help them out, and you go home in a nice clean car after a day of skidding, No washing your car on sunday!

Thats gotta be totally awesome for ya!

    • @Supernanoyour car has ended up in my hands and I was wondering if there has been any work done to the motor?  
    • Sigh... yeah OEM mount rear battery, very R33, very demure, very mindful.
    • Would need a substantial current draw in the car to make a bunch of sparks. Obvs to now test resistance to ground of the car's B+ lead. If there's a short there, you'll see it. Only likely place for that, as you suspect is alternator. But there is also the possibility that rats have had a chew on some insulation. Shitbox has the battery in the boot, yeah? Plenty of cable to attack.
    • Oh, I thought of that too... I disconnected the battery and hooked up the leads direct to the car without the battery in place. Sparks... I suspect the following: Alternator has decided to kill itself Starter has decided to kill itself I'll recharge the battery, then unplug both, and go from there. The above might take 6 months - however I did buy a Victron 15 AMP trickle charger, apparently it's better than CTEK? Amazon, delivery by tonight. https://www.amazon.com.au/Victron-Battery-Charger-15-Amp-waterproof/dp/B07P4LMMMD?ref_=ast_sto_dp
