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.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
