What happened to the 35 GTR pace or safety car? do they still use it?

The GTR pace car has been missing for quite a while... Dave told me the reason, but can't remember!! I believe Nissan and the series disagreed on something. It was at Winton... not sure about the round after though????

I thought it got canned because they didn't want the beer advertisements on it.

Dave just got home, and yup that was the reason. Sponsorship sign writing.... series wanted, Nissan didn't.. lol

argh ok. must be some politics involved with it. i only realised today , when i saw audi,and the way they drummed it up at the start of the year having it featured in motor mag etc, oh well.

Wet weather racing is awesome! :)

late breaking news from the ute series..... its not the supercars but anyways :)

Cranebrook Excluded from all Bathurst races today due to cheater rear springs

Gary Baxter Excluded from : Darwin, Townsville, Sandown - cheater engine. 10K fine ($5k suspended) .... :)

So Dave is extremely happy atm as their drivers are 1st and 2nd in the series!

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
