just wondering, if we are taking tools/wheels etc. with us, can we drop it at out garage before Scruitineering or do we just go through with all our stuff in the back and explain it wont be in the vechicle whilst driving around the track ?

Just a thought.. But should it be going..

5 - 4 - 2 - 1 - 3

OR

4 - 5 - 2 - 1 - 3

Only reasoning is that the n00b groups might get a better chance to watch the faster group? That way, not only can they get a more experenced driver in with them, but they can also watch the racing lines..?

Just a thought? Might be a crap one.. but it is a driver trainer day right..?

Im not sure about others, but I think the best way is to get to the track early, setup your shed and car, THEN go to scrutineering.

Thats what ill be doing.. Setting up the garage, getting the car off the trailer, then taking it over to scrutineering..

You must unload every single loose item and have the car track ready when you present at scruit. That includes if you want to run semi slicks or slicks, they should be bolted on.

As to the person asking about turning upto scruit at 7:30. Feel free to start the line. The Scruitineers will be there at 8am.

I advise being prepared for scruitineering at 8am. Ie don't arrive at the track at 8am, arrive at scruit at 8am once you've unpacked...

and getting there early means you get dibs on a garage =P

Hello,

Finally registered my own account (was previously using my friends account, akajonz).

I'm really looking forward to this! and have been edging to go for weeks now.

I'll be driving a honda, so please be gentle on the straights. 120kw ftl :)

play around with turismo on the track, you should be similar if not his a little faster on the straights

I've only got 100fwkw, so we should have some fun in group 1 :whistling: DC5 should be faster than me on the straights, so you wont be the only "slow" car in the top group

Dah, I wanted to go head to head with Reece. If my times come down I'll see if I can move to group 1 on the day.

Will see what we can do, but I won't be in the 32 so you will have triple my power

this one time, at band camp, he beat us all with a starlet.

If you don't have me in grumble bee, I will be very dissapointed in you :whistling:

Dude i'm happy to swap with you if you've got a bit of a rivalry going?

Nothing real :-) but if I get to the point that I'm lapping everyone I'd love a go in the faster group. We will see on the day and as the organisors say they will move people if they see a need to redo the groups.

I'll be instructing anyway for the first couple sessions.

Now thats just getting too logical Alex :D I think that would just lead to confusion champ, the simpler things are, the easier it is for all parties, the smoother it will run.

Thanks for helping out with instructing!

I may have missed something, but you're in group 2, and in accordance with your time so not sure why you feel 'out of place'. I can certainly review on the day if you truley are 'lapping' the rest of your group.

Cheers!

wow all this talk of being fast etcand having no power and heaps of power! ARGH!

who cares!!! just get out there and have fun!!

if you want to compare your lap times do a supersprint and see how you go

this is a fun day :D

Hey,

Just wondering if spectators were welcome and if so is there an entry fee?

i have a few friends that are wanting to come along and have a look but thought i should ask before we made the trip.

Thanks Blake

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
