actually they do teach you track specific stuff which can easily be translated to street and Hills driving. this is achieved by looking and critiquing your driving style/habits and hopefully getting you to change for the better (if improvement is needed).

you will get laps timed throughout the day to track your improvement, not for podium spots. there is no official Natsoft timing during the day.

the expense covers 6-8 professional instructors (several will be flying in from Melbourne) and the catering for the day (morning tea, sandwiches, hot lunch, cold drinks/ bottled water) - certainly a lot more than a $200 private day can offer imho.

Cheers for covering that, but I swear lucky last questions :(

Do they do any car setup advice? eg, your car is a bucket of pus, change your spring rates. :)

flinging your car around a track will certainly highlight setup issues (understeer, oversteer, etc)

they can't specifically tell you what spring rates to change to, but can provide comment as to their take on your car's handling - eg. the back end is unstable, too much understeer, turn-in could be improved, brakes fade too soon, etc

and that's the benefit of the day - learning stuff about your car in a (relatively) controlled environment so that you can make adjustments to it and improve your driving ;)

less than 8 wks to go, guys - please confirm here if you have sent your form off with payment and received a confirmation email

not sure at the moment as SAsupra.com went down on the weekend and lost 12 months worth of data & user accounts with no viable backup :D

i'll have to contact everyone from that site individually if their usernames still exist and they can access their PMs! might take a while to confirm but i think i had six paid up from that side.

either way, we have quite a few empty spots at present. i'll go thru the list of people who attended the Advanced Driving event and give them a reminder.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
