Tuesday Morning Drift Sessions @ Queensland Raceway

Next year, in 2009 I have organised a number of Tuesday Morning Drift Sessions and currently have 5 dates booked in throughout the year roughly 1-3 months apart from each other.

The first of which is on Tuesday the 13th of January 2009. Gates open at 7:30 and we will be on track from 8am and finished up by 12pm, with all pit bays empty by 12:30pm in time for the afternoon session. We will be running the Driftorama circuit for the first 2 hours and for the remaining 2 hours we will run the turn 2-dipper track layout and the turn 3-6 track layout.

The cost will be $120 per person, and I have chosen to employ the services of the track paramedic if needed for the morning and will have tow cars on hand also. All payments must be in by Sunday the 4th of January. Please PM me for bank details and any other information please.

Method of payment will be via direct debit or paid in cash to me. No refunds will be given unless the day is called off, however you can sell your spot to someone else if something goes wrong but it is your responsibility to do so and you need to let me know who is taking your spot before the day.

There will be a barbecue afterwards (from 12:30pm) on the grassed area next to the canteen for all drivers, friends and spectators, $1 for a can of soft drink and $1 for a sausage on bread. Make sure you come and have a chat and get to know everyone.

The future dates booked in are:

24th of February

14th of April

3rd of June

21st of July

29th of September

**Note all of these dates are Tuesdays**

If you have any questions can you please PM me and I will get back to you as soon as I possibly can.

Cheers,

Steven Lewis

What would be the most amount of people able to go on a day? Obviously I'm thinking of how much track time to a $ value based on the amount of cars as a large factor in wether or not I'd go.

Also stupid question, thats $120 per day correct?

Yeah $120 per day mate, prices in future may go down if i find i have enough consistent interest.

At the moment im thnking 50 will be my max, i dont know how well i will go at getting that many people anyway. Theres normally 70-80 guys on tack on a friday night so its definately better than that. The guys ive got helping me run the day have done it before and some work most friday night practices so it should run smoothly.

These days are designed for people wanting to have a go at drifting, its a morning of drifting, no competition, just a day to hone your skills and have fun. There will be ample space between you and other cars on the track and if your really worried let the marshall running the start line know and they can give you more of a gap.

Cheers, Steve.

OKay sounds great, I will have to come along to the first one, I think just to watch because I am pretty broke atm, and if I like it, (almost certain I will....) I will give it a go for sure in one of the later dates..

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By Duncan · Posted

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
