Hey guys,

Little story I have here.

I'm 16, and just bought an r31 silhouette (manual of course :3some:).

Just wanted to know everyone's thoughts on how I should get started in track days/skid pan days.

I know that I need a CAMS license (L2S?) and to get that I need to be a member of a cams approved club, but thats about it.

What would be good events to start out in?

I'm also wanting to get involved in defensive driving courses or advanced driving courses, so I can better my skills as a learner and be a better driver for when I get my p's.

Anyway, thoughts and ideas, and what is the next event coming up that I could get involved in?

Thanks in advance for all your help guys, much appreciated,

Hakan.

The events section has a calendar sticky, I also asked this question in the past, I got some great responses but thing to check is the calendar in the events section.

And join the club :/

contact your insurance company about a defensive driving course they should be able to steer you in the right direction (no pun intended)

you also may benefit of a insurance premium discount depending on who your with with the course under your belt.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅

      Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
