Yeah, would have been good to see you guys on the track more. Was good to meet some of you nonetheless. See you next time.

+1, only 1 lap for session 3 (group 4) was a bit of a downer, but no-one came unstuck on the day :) and at least the last session was dry :P

and at least u all kept dry..

out at the flag points not so lucky!

that said did get a bunch of photos should be up later this week when I'm done with the deca videos!

oh and clive very nice slide from turn 2-3...

I convinced Chris to come on the weekend. Don't expect anything special from either of us though. We are just coming for a fun session and to do some laps.

Neither of us is really interested in going balaistic anymore. It's just nice to get out there and have a good time and PI is such and awesome fun place to drive around.

I can't wait :yes:

Err, well done to Chris on the PB :happy: We all knew you guys were sandbagging. :D

First up a big thanks to the volunteers :)

Wow what a mixed bag weather wise from hail to sunshine in about 10mins Overall I had a good day, considering the mixed weather, large entry list etc I managed to equal my PB of a mid 1.49.

One thing I will add is the point that some drivers ignore the blue flag trying to keep a faster car being them, only to end up in the kitty litter - what is the point? Secondly, what is the point of a slower car staying on the racing line in a corner, waving through a faster one by pointing to the outside of a corner - sure it can be done on some corners but certainly not southern loop or the turn up lukey heights :)

Congrats to Chris, nice to meet you Luke and sorry to hear about the dramas that others had.

Ps the SM m3 is a work of art - think of the condition of the R32 gtr just in bmw clothes :)

Thanks, Martin. FWD in the wet is just totally good fun. This was the Lancers first track day ever so was an eye opener.

Loved the minis! now there's a real FWD performer (I presume they are also FWD)

And a big thanks to all the officials and volunteers on the day out there in the wet :)

Also those spectating at Honda Hairpin, miles from any shelter, were not very lucky. They would have been more lucky if they'd brought their poncho with them, which they thoughtfully brought to the track, then left in the car.

I just loved the PI track... Its a very fast track compared to Winton... Had loads of Fun.. Wish the weather was better...

Oh well, Atleast bcuz of the rain i got to drift also :action-smiley-069:

Thanks to Justin and all the other organisers..

yes indeed flaggies sure deserve a mention the day wasn't gonna happen unless we coughed up some volunteers.

also thanks to martin (emts) john (richo) and others for givin me a hand with my car and chris (scotsman) for driving me home.

ended up gettin back there about 10:30 that night with a trailer... luckily the torrential rain held off but it was pitch black and f*cking gale force freezing wind.. took us about 40mins before we had the lip off and the car on the trailer - lets just say it wasn't exactly pleasant... haha

the track is simply amazing. i can not wait to go back there again.

pretty happy with 2min flat for my first outing there hopefully next time my testicular diamater will have increased for turn 1.

that's not good, what did you break?... although I can probably guess lol

that's a great time Scotsman punched out, well done!

can't wait til I get back from europe and am allowed out to play again... I miss scaring the crap out of myself and breaking things hehe

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
