yes you get to pick if you like. best to ask one of the guys in group 2 or 3, as the group 1 guys will be straight up after the DT sessions.

after the first session you should be right to drive solo, the more exp guy will step you through the lines and breaking marks etc. then go out by yourself

and forget all that and go nuts like everyone else, lol.

We've booked a cabin and we're in with the rest of you so should be fun. We'll just be staying the Saturday night and will drive up in the morning on Saturday and meet you all at Winton.

All of my friends bailed on me so it'll just be me and the missus this time but if DECA shep was anything to go by there's more than enough friendly people around to make up for it.

Side note: The 18th is my birthday so I might be in fine form on the Saturday night :rofl:

EDIT: As this will be my first sprint in this car and I barely know it I'm going to do Driver Training :banana: Do you get to choose the Trainer?

If I didn't have a christening to go to I would have been seriously tempted!!!!

Good luck.....

I've just had to pull out. When I told the other half she hit the roof because next Saturday is her Dads birthday and we are going... fffarkk... Looks like its haunted hills or bust !

Great how they say a little rain. So not specific.

Drift spec is awesome. Rough and tough haha.

OK I've faxed off the form and I'm going in A03 after speaking with the WRX motorsport guy on that email address.

However, he said he might be able to russle up brief DT mini session for me on the day and I'm thinking that Ryan might be a good person to take me for a couple laps in my car as he knows S13's

What do you think Ryan, up for it?

If i can i will mate. Because Mick is driving my car also i will be going out with him in the practice session so basically you need to be in a group that we are not either side of. ie if im group 1, mick is 3 you need to be 5.

If i cant do it i would recomend Adz as someone else to ask.

Driving to Winton in the morning - Thinking of doing the same, did anyone indicate travel time as I'm wondering when to set off. Got to be there for the briefing.

Got my entry in :banana:

Never been to Winton before, how long do I need to allow to get there? Anyone else heading up that morning?

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
