if you pay for SAU member ship and then $70 for the track day do you still then have to pay for a wakefield liscence to be able to go on the track ? or does the $70 cover you for that days racing ?

you still have to pay for the Wakefield license on top which lasts a year.

I want to make sure my car is 100% before doing it and after having never done something like this before I think I'd like to do a driver training day first. Would like to get the most out of it and make sure I don't do anything silly :thumbsup:

This would be a practise day with timing.

You can push your car as hard or soft as you want. If someone is hassling you, you could speak to the organiser, they'll probably be able to have a word with people (If it's like the track days i've been too).

My car is never 100%, still got heaps of things on my to do list but practise one of the best things you can do.

BTW, Circuit = Yawn, drifting = fun :thumbsup:.

Yeah but I wanna get someone in with me and give me tips and what not. Will be doing it in the not too distant future.

LOL circuit will be for the GTR. And hopefully next year I'll be looking into finding myself a drift pig for some other fun. I'm also bout to buy another house so this isn't the best timing for me.

the thing that makes this different to a standard track day is that you CAN have someone in the car with you to give you tips and what not.

Fair enough...

there arent too many other days like this around! thats why we as a club hold them!

Its totally n00b friendly!

got plenty of guys who race there as instructors!

Opps, just realised that the IDA Drift Day is at Wakefield on Sunday :/ .

I'll be at Wakefield that day (the day after)...

I'll be there the day after... but it's not drifting, its the NSW Supersprint Championships. I'll be there in the afternoon on Saturday to catch up with some folks, but can't run the open wheeler at the SAU day and don't have circuit tyres for the GTR. I'll be racing on Sunday though and will have to try and make up for all the practice Neil is getting.

Ok guys, for those who are participating i suggest driving up as a group in the morning. I reckon we do the usual thing and meet at the Shell Gateway servo (EPIC) at 6.45am ish for a 7am sharp departure. If your not there by 7am, we will leave without you. Happy to get some maccas at Goulburn if thats what people want.

Please put your name on the list if you are coming so we know who the group will consist of: (copy and paste your name. you all know how it works)

Yeh, I got the dates mixed up, it's the Sunday after (10th of May).

I'm going to sleep in a bit and drive out a little bit later.

thats only for those who are participating. we need to be there early for paper work and scurtineering, so if your only coming up to watch i'd recommend you sleep in, then drive up later....

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
