I came as a spectator with my friends and we very much enjoyed it. Our personal favourite was the gunmetal 32 gtr with semi slicks that was smashing the records. Who ever you are you received an applause from us, good job! :D

I'm gauging interest on this idea.

How about we have a social day at a pub or Thurs Night Cruise to gather as much video as we can from the day. I'm happy to put together a compilation video in my spare time (prob take a couple of weeks to a month to do well). I can then put it up on YouTube or have SL!M put them on the SAU Channel.

If you have video to contribute and could make a social meet then post a reply here.

It's actually a GTS-T with an RB20DET putting out about 157 rear wheel Kilowatts. Search in YouTube under "nerm2007" for vids of TURISMO (gungray 32GTS-T with GTR wheels, wing, bonet and grill and semislicks all around) and ZCR (Silver 32GTS-T with GTR wheels and semislicks on the front only)

Depending on back issues and what my Physio says I might give this one a go.... Since I told Zane and Reece to slap me if I back out of the next motorkhana lol *starts to think it was a bad idea to say that to them*

By Request Liz vs. MX5 Video:

Listen to that wind in the afternoon!

Had an awesome day! Never done this low speed skid stuff, very different to track days, just as much fun.

LOL, Liz and I had a great time racing each other all arvo. The cones on the left track were so out of place by the end of the day I ended up doing dounuts instead, yeh 1.6 powarrr, didn't know my car could do that!

I was so excited from the day that Alex had to stop me ripping the handbrake up going around corners on the way home.

See some of you on thursday nights =D

p.s. cassbo you are crazy

The voices in my head have been telling me that for years! :laugh:

Top day people! The first two sessions I was in it for the fastest lap time, but after I realised I had a bit of a problem remembering the course layout as well as a little bit of a power/suspension/skill disadvantage I decided to slap on the Stagea rims and rip skids! Never have done a skid pan event before, but I can truthfully say I prefer it over a drift day, all the sideways action without the stone chips :P

Looking forward to being a menace at the next Texi :(

yeah he was in my car. But he didn't do any of the timed courses

You probably got a lot of times on the go-to-whoa, but the timer probably mistook your number for another one.

So all the runs for Car 31 are mine? as everyone thought my car was 31 not 37

Awesome day boys n gals! Glad to see everyone had a ball with next to no casualties!!

Never having skidded the failvia before it was a great opportunity to just shread tyres, didnt really take much notice of course layout..... oopps Turns out the silvia likes to smoke some tyres and wheel spin all the way down the whoa-to-go.....

Now if i can just figure out how to edit a vid and upload it i will do so... positioned my camera on the rear wheel for one session.... all i can say is... SMOKIN.... :laugh:

Watch this space, ill see what i can do!

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
