Thursday 23rd July, Oran Park Gp Circuit, That's This Thursday!


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

With Oran Park closing very very soon it is time to take advantage of the track while it is still there.

They run open practice days on all the 3 layouts of the track, this Thursday (23-07-09) is going be a GP layout.

What you need.

CAMS level 2 Speed licence. You can join Skylines Australia NSW and buy a licence which will last you approximately $150 total. This last for a whole year and gives you access to these days at both Oran Park and Eastern Creek and Wakefield.

A working car, with no oil leaks and loose parts etc.

A Helmet and long cotton clothing.

Fuel, some lubes and your toolbox. Food is not available at the track, so bring some or take a trip into Narrellen.

Camera (There will be some pretty cool race cars out at the track.)

Probably something else I forgot.

For More info contact Oran Park. www.oranpark.com.au

See you there,

Dan.

Ryan, I won't know till probably the start of each month, but I'll try to let everybody know ASAP.

Thanks mate, if you get a chance this week shoot me through some pics :)

I still have not heard back from BBM?

I just called and he said "Dan who?"

LOL not really mate all good thanks for that waiting for stock 2-4 weeks away.

Comon people this is a super track and will be one of the last times you can drive OP GP. I wish i was going to be there. :-(

Lol, I'm looking for pictures later tonight hopefully... see how busy I get between now and then, followed by how buggered I am as a result.

I'm going either way... OP GP Rocks out!

Mate these day's are the best kept secret... I could have lapped continuously from 9:30am to 4:30pm if the car could have handled it, only once was there the maximum of 4 cars out there. Mostly there was only 2 cars on track.

Spewin Ports... you missed a good day... probably only 8 cars there... HEAPS of track time... I was buggered by 1:30.

Not happy, took the dude 20 minutes to fix under warranty, but had to wait till he arrived :P .........8 cars all day aaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!! :blush:

I'm gonna start a "Late Notice Track day" thread and see if we can generate some interest around town and for the next ones. I'll post a link in here when I get it going...

Man I had some fun... Slick tyres are very awesome fun. :P

Controlling 700rwkw... Stuuuuupidly fun... and breaking for turn 1 into turn 2 at around 255km/h SCARY! :blush:

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
