Count me in as a "yes, depending on date"

Will there be someone there to provide 'pointers', as I dont even pretend to know how to drift.

Hopefully my HICAS and Rear Suspension will be fixed by then.

Ok That's 30, still need a couple more to make it fly.

Dave said that we could have the figure 8 track as well for an additional $30 a car.

If we had both pans open we could rotate from one to the other and get twice the amount of skid time.

What does everyone think of the additional cost to double your time and introduce some variety into the day.

All right everyone looks like we are good to go.

We have a couple of options with respect to sessions and tracks.

We have 40 people interested.

We can do the Skidpan only for 20 people in a morning & afternoon session at $50 each

We can do both the skidpan and the figure 8 wet track for about $100 all day 40 people at once.

Both Options give you a spin every 20 min so there will be plenty of drive time. The date Sat 23rd November.

I think for variety and fun we should all spend the $100 and do the full day. This is really cheap, for example yesterday 28 people had the skidpan at EC only for the afternoon, mid week $145 each, so this is fantastic value for the weekend and a whole day and both tracks.

I will post up a new event with only the $100 option for the whole day. Those that want a half-day send me a PM and I will talk to Dave and see what I can do. But really even if you rock up late it will still be good value for the day. As a Fall back if numbers get thin we can only do the skid pan and back to plan A morning and arvo sessions.

Thanks all and please use the new thread.

      Original window sticker?

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
