So is it Pay on the day event for the 24th? Normal regs like helmet, secondary bonnet restraint and no leaking crap? Anything else?

sure is.. private track day, turn up, pay, sign waiver.. whack helmet on and race.

[Mr. Untouchable]

What pads you waiting on old boy???

[Mr. Untouchable]

zoid, the factory calipers mate. when the next set of pads are flogged out I'm gonna grab some Ksports 8 pots, too many good reviews for 2k to pass up.

Justin, dunno mate, I'll be going to see the dick head couriers first thing, hopefully i wont need em.

Ben, I use QFM A1RM pads, aussie made, work from 0-780, and can get them for around 130 for front or 250 front +rear. they are dusty buggers, can be noisy but are very very good value! and they dont chew rotors too bad. its not their fault, they sent them the same day, fastway have had them in hobart for 8 days....... I hear its being bought out, well i can say they have a shit load of cleaning up to do, coz the ass holes there couldn't run a country chook raffle

[zoidbergmerc]

I hope you can get some pads in time mate, I'd really like to see you out there ripping it up! Can't you just like go into Fastways with a sawn-off and not leave until they find them?

What time are we all getting to the track? I'm thinking 9am?

[Clandestine]

Those brakes had better be in Jack, I've heard lots of very good things about this car and want to see it out there Hell, if you don't have brakes just go out and cruise around at 5kmph for the effect, I may even overtake you!

I'm happy to turn up any time but if the weather is good I'll be getting out as early as possible I reckon

By the way, I've had a mate (with his own helmet) say he wants to navigate from the passenger seat on the day, I'm assuming there's no problem with this and he won't have to pay anything?

[Mr. Untouchable]

well, went into fastway first thing today, long story short, they have lost them. As much as i wanted to axe kick someone, I need SOLUTIONS, not PROBLEMS!

So anyways Hamish At revolution Is getting some in thisarvo for me, will pick them up later. I have some GS610 fluid here, un opened, winner!

And I just dropped my rotors off to be machined. so should have some reasonable stoppers by tonight.

and re Navigators, nup, helmet & long sleeve shirt and their good to go. no cost. I'll have a nav at some stage on sunday no doubt! =)

weather forcast looking good for it.

[Mr. Untouchable]

haha, uhhh ..., Fastway just dropped my pads off :-/ farkin typical. Now I have pads in stock.......

[zoidbergmerc]

Good to hear Mr. U

as for me, FFFFFFFffffffffffffffff oil cooler NEEDED! sigh -_-

I think I have internal bleeding from having my dreams crushed.

[Mr. Untouchable]

dude, no good.

just run without one, limit yourself to 5 laps at a time, 20 mins between runs.

[zoidbergmerc]

STOP TEMPTING ME!

Nah I totally would do this if I had an oil temp gauge.

Plus Dad said he's not coming down anymore so I'm tow vehicleless and because it's a public loliday I'm trailerless too.

i rang and made sure the track is clear for sunday , all good , umm i won't be there early , if i can (if no one minds) i may bring the hq out too .

zoidberg - no need for oil coolers , it an rb , i'd say 10 laps then 25-30min rest would be fine for it

[zoidbergmerc]

Ok, I've got my laptop all hooked up to the haltec so that'll tell me what my temps are while I'm in the car, just need to find a way to secure the laptop in the car so it doesn't fly around and KO me in the face.

6 Cell battery and Intel Atom should be good for 5 hours at least on battery

I've only got street tyres so they're only going to be good for two laps at a time anyway.

[toffy]

nah , street tyres do 10 laps in a 1380kg hq pretty easy , they should be good for 10 in a ~1200kg r33 , more power will put more heat into the rear tyres though , what brand tyre do you have on your car? getting the tyre pressure right will help alot.

[zoidbergmerc]

Federal Evos on the front and Toyo R1Rs on the back.

[toffy]

i've never used r1r's but evo's like a good 35-40psi hot on my car if that helps . actually , does anyone wanna give me some advice on semi's tyre pressure, i've never used them before :S
