Private track owned by the ex ceo of coca cola i think

This may be urban legend but the story on the Kulnura track goes like this -

The owner applied to build the track to be used for his private use in the '70's. Not surprisingly he was knocked back by local council. So instead he applied to build an access road, left out the fact that it had 22 corners and would be 5+ks long and it was duly approved........It does link from the road to the house.......

And his son wrote off his Maclaren F1 several years ago somewhere down around Akuna Bay. I remember reading the article and thinking it left my indiscretion of writing off my dad's old SR500 somewhat down the scale of young, dumb son screw-ups.

And what are you boys gonna do about legal liability / insurance? :banana:

hire jewish lawyer's to draft up a disclaimer form. but if you only have a small skid area, with a decent runn off area, maybe a few tyre stacks where any obsticles are, it wouldn't be a issue.

surely you would only embark on a basic testing/handling/manouver area, you wouldn't set up corner's 50-100 meters long and a track km's long.

and yes i have seen that sp episode.

At the end of the day, it's cheaper and easier enjoy places like sheparton.

kieren unfortunetly there arn't abandoned airports like on topgear, or unsused factories/stock yards, but yeh driver training days sounds like the go, then hit winton and maybe once again calder.

Laverton?

this is what my mate had back in the day..

his old man had a farm, and got sick of the cops calling about him being a dick on the streets....

so for his 21st built him a private skid pan.

been turned into a pen for cows with fences and stuff since he left home tho...

Reminds me of that South Park where Cartman buys his own theme park so he doesn't have to wait in queue for rides, then let's in one or two people to pay the maintenance guy to fix rides, and more people in after that to pay for other expenses...then bit by bit it becomes a not so private theme park :)

Truth is alot of people learn how to drive their cars on the street...because there's nowhere in close proximity or with subsidised cost to support this kind of thing, when there should be. Safe injecting rooms for hoons so to speak...but the government would rather help addicts kill themselves than give people with a healthy and tax benefiting passion a place to have fun :D

well said, totally agree.

"So much to do in Cartmanland, but you can't come! Especially Stan and Kyle."

That eps was funny xD

Of course if you owned something like DECA as a business...you'd have unlimited time whenever people aren't using it :P

Probably wouldn't be a bad thing to invest in right now, as the laws are getting stricter and stricter

i found this on the CAMS website under Vic Venues

Sprint Venues

Name: East Sale RAAF Base

Operator: RAAF Auto Club of East Sale

Phone:

if the Sale RAAF airbase can run motor sport events, I don't see any harm in approaching other RAAF airbases

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
