**NOTE THIS IS FOR AN AFTERNOON SESSION**

Hey guys and gals,

We have booked another Driver Training day on the skidpan at the RAC Facility in Kewdale!!

Please make sure you read and understand all requirements before signing up to this event. Getting there on the day and saying you didn't realize the impairments and are not prepared (not having a helmet etc) will result in you being excluded and no refund will be given. So make sure you know what you need to have!!

The training is held in a controlled environment on a skidpan with an instructor. We have paid for two instructors so everyone gets more time training (otherwise a lot of time is lost while the instructor changes cars). I am unsure who the instructors will be at the moment, however i have done several of these days and recommend any of their instructors.

You will do a variety of motorkhana style challenges, which aim to teach things like handling of your vehicle, braking, driver seating position and several other techniques.

HELMETS ARE REQUIRED - RAC no longer have any so you must supply your own helmet.

When - Sunday October 31st (Afternoon)

Time - 12.15pm SHARP - 4.20pm. Driver briefing is at 12.30 so BE ON TIME!! (Missing Briefing means NO track time)

Cost - $75 for SAUWA Members. $85 for non SAUWA Members (If spaces available)

Where - RAC Driver Training Facility. Grogan Road Perth International Airport

Please note this is primarily member's only event. Places will go to members first and if there are any left, non-members can attend at full charge ($85)

There are only 16 spots available so please PM me if you wish to participate and I will send you my bank account details - as you will need to pay within 7 days to confirm your spot. (First in first served basis sorry). I will not be chasing people up for payments. If you have not paid within 7 days, your spot will be cancelled with out notice and given to someone else. When you send me your PM to confirm your spot, please give me your full name, contact phone number and what model car you will be driving (preferably colour and model) so a running list can be prepared for the day and it will also make it easier for us to work out the order on the day.

Your name will NOT be added to the attendees list unless you PM me, this means I won't be taking names down from people just posting their interest in this thread.

Driver/Vehicle requirements:

Current and Valid Drivers License

Long Sleeve top, long pants required

Helmet

Fully enclosed foot wear

Car to be registered with no safety defects

Seat belts both left and right hand side front

All loose items removed from inside the vehicle

Road legal tyres (no slicks)

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via PM.

Cheers

Paul

Say my car is still registered, but I've put a different motor in it and haven't got it engineered or through the pits. Does that count as a safety defect?

Nah, aslong as the engine isn't going to fall out of the car it will be fine >_< Aslong as it's safe to drive on the road, then they won't have any issues with it.

ahah YES! First test run in 2 weeks, if all goes well and there's spots left I'm so in :D:bunny:

This is hardly filling up quickly :(

My spot can be taken by someone else if they want it when this goes public, not 100% sure my car will be fixed by the end of the month as I've got my work hack to get over the pits first. Powercruise claimed a victim with my head gasket :rofl:

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
