mmm, I thought the same since motoconcepts are only asking 150.

Still, the option's there for anyone who's interested.

speaking of C3, that lets you go to the EC open practice days for $105 (only 6 days till end of year, and you have to share the track with whatever race cars turn up those days)

My sentiments exactly (on both counts)

I wonder what officials we need to run a driver education skid pan day as a club? NON-COMPETITIVE of course to try to avoid that red tape.

Just spoke to CAMS:

The requirements for a training day are the same as those for a competition day. i.e. Stewards, Marshalls, Supp. Regs. etc.

The cost of hiring the pan is very attractive and would be not be an expensive day. Obviously the Club is in a different situation to a company that's trying to make a profit and pay people etc.

nope, take any car that you're happy to have on the track at the same time as a sport sedan or a kingswood race car! just needs to pass some basic scruitineering.

mmmm, skid pan day, been a while....

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
