Next Moto Concepts Track Day, Eastern Creek, 2nd October 2003.


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

Here we go again.

I will speak to Dave Stone in the next few days to see how many spots he can give us @ $180 (approx) each but again I MUST get deposits off people or there is not going to be spots kept for them.

SO... I need to know expressions of interest soon and deposits ($50) MUST BE IN NO LATER THAN THE 19th of September. I will be in homebush on Sunday morning and at the SAU General Meeting (open to everybody, only members can have a say).

THIS IS NOT AND OFFICIAL SKYLINES AUSTRALIA EVENT.

You will need as usuall.

Full Face helmut

non-flamable Clothing. (Jeans and a cotton longsleve shirt)

Covered shoes.

Road worthy car (Basically just check for oil leaks and if it is regoed you will be fine)

$130 (balance of payment, this is easier if it is cash)

Full tank of fuel... you normally drive about 300kms in a full day at the creek... basing you fuel consumption on my average track consumption of 26L/100kms you can see that I have to head out and fill up between one of the sessions.

Tis a good idea to check all fluid levels and make sure you have at least half your front break pads left. Also advisable to bring a bottle of octaine booster with you.

Cheers,

Dan.

ahh, some members of the team have reappeared :D

Yes Duncan - it would appear that not all of us have the same flexibility with our clients as others. lol

I've got my co-driver back as well.

I'll be in the middle of moving house that week so I think I'll need the time out!

Neil puts hand up,,,I want more,,,. Carlo and Doughboy me thinks if it's $180 it's gotta be a whole day.

Ah Bonkers will be nice to catch up with you again,,,Been a while buddy.

Neil.

Wow... nice to see team track day still has it!

Updated Above.

Carlo,

Tis a full day. (That goes for you two DoughBoy!)

Bonkers,

It will most likely be $180 for the car if your only driving in one session (eg only session B) and $20 for the extra driver. It will be $180 each if your both driving a session each (eg Session A and Session B).

So where is Silver and Dino (I think he is in Paris) and akira and Prank and shit the list goes on!

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
