Hi Everyone

Just thought I'd let you know that we'll be running a skidpan day at Oran Park on Sunday 15th March 2009.

We'll be running a morning session from 9.00 am until 12.00pm and an afternoon session from 12.30pm until 4.30pm.

The morning session will be limited to 6 drivers, and the afternoon session will be limited to 8 drivers, so you'll get plenty of driving time.

Cost per driver is $150

This course will be conducted by well known Sydney Advanced Driving Instructor, John Boston

The format we run to is pretty simple...

Brief classroom session

The rest of the time is spent driving practising skid control skills on the skidpan, we will also be running 'motorkhana' type exercises, most of you will be familiar with John, he runs a great program for us in Sydney.

One car on the skidpan at a time.

Note that we will be using water on the skidpan to minimise tyre wear.

If you'd like to come along please shoot us an email [email protected]

or give Tessa a call during office hours on 1300 652 693

Kind regards

Kev

No one is making you go.

If you think its too much dont come, pretty simple.

$150 for a whole day with how many drivers 30 ? 40?, we have 6 drivers in one session and 8 in the other.

YOU COULDN'T EVEN PAY THE FOR VENUE HIRE WITH THESE NUMBERS !!

When it comes to value for money,no one can compete with us.

The thousands of drivers who have done days with us in the past in Melbourne and Sydney will tell you that we offer pretty good value for money.

First in best dressed ;)

This day has training guys. You would not get a full day for the same amount with this level of tuition. And the drift day would not come with tuition.

$150 bucks is dirt cheap and obviously the people that have booked thought so as well :action-smiley-069:

    • 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!
