Hey guys, what's the most affordable option to get onto EC for a track day? I had a look on the ARDC site and all I could find were Track days (which start at 12.30pm so it's not even a full day) and they cost $340! Last time I looked the L2S days were about $190, but I can't seem to find them. I'm considering supersprints, but my car isn't rego'd or have a cams logbook. Any other ideas?

Cheers!

I went to http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/400359-eastern-creek-north-track-day-sat-02-june-invite-to-sau/ and had a great time - recommend any day Brett (WalkyHR31) puts on. It was raining and 5 cars ended up bent... I cut up the others in my session - Fed RSRs are great in the wet :yes:

Turns out that Eastern Creek still runs the L2S days! Here's the calendar:

7 September - Cars / Bikes / L2S (South Circuit)

21 September – NSWMRC COMPETITORS ONLY (North Circuit)

12 October - Cars / Bikes / L2S (South Circuit)

20 October – Cars - COMPETITORS ONLY (Full Circuit)

7 December - Cars / Bikes / L2S (Full Circuit)

And pricing:

A.R.D.C. Members – $105 (including GST)

Non-members – $135 (including GST)

Garage (optional) – $25 (including GST)

Which is damn cheap. They also accept AASA licences which I wasn't aware of. Hooray :banana:

EDIT: Does anyone know what they mean by 'COMPETITORS ONLY"?

Watchin that video, the category they r in doesnt seem very even. Those 2 commos fired past half a dozen cars before turn 1, then continued to pull away. I can believe the guy is allowed to race, hes rubbish.

its the production car category that I race in, there are 5 classes, he is in class A but didn't do qaulifying so had to start at rear of grid (40 cars back). Plenty of cars finished in front of him, mostly 4wd turbos eg emo Xs.

the driving standards of course have been a point of frequent discussions....who needs repair bills.

Repair bills indeed!

Interesting class. with such a slow field, you'd need to carve it up as fast as possible. Cant clearly see the first shunt but the second certainly should have him before the stewards.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.

      Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
