Hi,

Since we lost the old post, I thought I'd post up a reminder:

Mallala public track day

Sat 6th Dec

meet Sefton Plaza cnr Main North and Regency Roads 9am

Racing/Scrutineering starts at 10am (I think)

approx. 7 x 1 hour blocks, with 4 x 15 minute sessions (one of each class - car, bike, go-kart and open wheeler I believe) in each block. So you get to race 15 minutes in every hour (which u want to do to cool down anyhow).

Cost $70

Need:

- helmet

- long sleeves

- closed shoes

- non nylon-flammable clothing

- full licence - NO P-PLATERS - sorry :D

We will be cooking a basic bbq on the day and ask a gold coin donation or whatever you deem appropriate. I will bring a little barbie, utensils, sauce, bread, snags and chevaps. If you want anything else to cook on the bbq feel free to bring it.

I think that about covers it!! Come out even if you don't want to race (not that there's ANY excuse for not racing :D ).

Please post your intentions below so I can get a rough idea of food requirements (again - sorry).

For anybody that is going to the track day it is always a good idea to take a jerry can of spare fuel with you. As you will be surprised at how much fuel you go through when you are booting it all the time.

Have been to track days out there before and learnt the hard way, by going to the local service station, which only serves regular unleaded and had to get octane booster as well. It is just easier to take some premo up with you in a jerry can.

Just my 2 c.:burnout:

I'm not too sure mate .... people I know for sure (well last I heard anyhow):

Me

Mattr (as passenger)

32godzilla

9krpm

Miss33/Boostd (as spectators)

grepin ?

a few of my mates (as spectators)

JSpec (John from PSI in his S15)

Matt whatsisname - sorry bud :cheers:

I hope John is coming out for a few laps - but I believe the engine is going in Boost6 late this week - so may be impossible.

I'm not really fussed if not many people come - less traffic on the track for us :wassup:

oh, and all the lurkers out there - post if you're coming!!! I need to know food numbers! :blast:

At the moment my car is up on a hoist with it's bell housing and clutch removed. It's a long story, but basically the 2nd hand OS twin plate I got from D1 is pull type and I need push type (or vice versa, I can't remember - it's way too confusing).

Anyway, I spoke to James and he said you can modify the bellhousing by drilling and tapping two holes and getting a housing with clutch fork off the other style clutch and bolting it in...... Well, I went all over Adelaide and finally got one from Tilbrook's, went up to the mechanic doing the job and it ending up being exactly the f**king same as the one already in my car!! :rofl: (btw nothing against Tilbrook's, they were really helpful, it was just unfortunate).

So anyway, before I bore you to death my car isn't going to be ready for possibly ages... and I'm way pis?ed off. Oh, and my exhaust as some of you will remember had seen better days and needs replacing - just another thing.

So have fun everyone, I'll see you out there next time.

P.S. Saw John's DRIFT 6 at Tilbrook's, dog box apparently arrived today, can't wait to see on the road! :D

damn it Craig .... ah well

It's ok Paul, I bought a helmet today (am sick of borrowing/hiring all the time) - thanks anyhow!

So it looks like it's only Dan (9krpm Supercharged S2000) and I running. Anyone else?

If there's only gonna be this many people I might not bother with the bbq. Anyone wanna make picnic baskets?

I think the finish time is supposed to be 5pm. Not sure what time the street meet drags start, but the pro car test and tune starts at AIR at 10am (with public street meet to be after that).

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • 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
