Jay, you can get cams licence on the day. I can't remember exactly how much it is. Its like $110 I think

Piece of piss, looks like I'll be going along then. Need to spend some time under the car as the rear is feeling a little loose, but should be good :)

And Veeto, I'd lend you mine if I wasn't using it, but.. yeah.. I am :P surely someone has one banging around?

See you lads there, looking for interim points whilst the real car is being repaired...... but will still be some serious competition.

Hopefully this time I might best you! Too bad we won't be in the same class anymore :(

Sunday 7 August - Summary

Min 4

Max 10

Shower or two.

Cloudy. Isolated showers. Winds southerly averaging 10 to 20 km/h.

If the track is patchy wet I'm going to be shitting myself... I don't mind the idea of completely wet but that's only because I will probably cruise around at 40kmph.. Perhaps my stock boat will do okay in the wet?

Dropping in my money today, will see how it goes :)

Your driving style is so silky smooth Jay I wouldn't worry about getting loose. thumbsup.gif

My exuberant driving style on the other hand... I may actually spend more time sideways than not.

gahaha, silky smooth at 40kmph is easy mate ;) I was thinking of getting a rug for the back window and a driving hat...

Hopefully this time I might best you! Too bad we won't be in the same class anymore :(

Bring on the rain I say!..By the end of the day you might be wishing you didn't leave AWD class :P

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
