Have just sent off payment for membership renewal so I can try and be at this event.

Bec, get up WRX club to update with entries so I know how much time I have to pay for this ;)

Would really love to make this one

so if you're a newb to circuit racing like me (only done 3 deca events so far but have no circuit experience) should I put myself in the driver training group? i am just worried that I will get swamped by all the faster cars and I don't want to get in anyone's way on the track... but i still want to do the whole event... any recommendations?

I did DT at sandown, its great, as you can take people along with you to learn the lines etc (Thanks Andrew :worship:)

The only thing is that you get SHIT ALL time compared to everyone else and that really really sucks and is unfair!

So dont listen to anyone who tells you that you still get heaps of time on the track...

Hmmmmm......If that was the last WRX club day, you should have had exactly the same amount as time as everyone else.

The only part of the day that Driver Training guys miss out on is the super sprints (which is a very valid exclusion).

As far as practice and sessions go though, you should have had exactly the same number of sessions as all the other groups.

And technically..... you get more seat time, coz it takes you guys longer to get around each lap :worship:

If you feel disadvantaged like that, you should have approached the Clerk of Course on the day and explained how you felt, he could have either cleared it up for you, or fixed the problem. If you want to, you could still shoot the Motorsport Director of the WRX Club an email explaining your concerns etc.

dont not do DT because you get less track time, which is marginally less anyway... we have seen a number of people write their cars off by jumping in the deep end when the probably shouldnt have...

also, if you and your instructor are confident that you can go solo then you just let the clerk of course know and you will be able to drive on your own so its really the way to go.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
