over the whole 3 days i was there i would of had 40mins on the track if that and the track is soo fu#*king slippery in the wet, the rest of the time was spent waiting in line for cruising.

heres a short vid of my mates & i, aarons 180sx, ako's r32, my r32.

We did 2 sessions one in wet and one in dry in a mate's FPV over 2 days and I'd say we had at least 40 mins of track time...

Also didn't think it was that slippery I think a lot of that comes down to factors like tyre choice, car setup and driver.

Few reasons actually:

1000 entrants who all think their car is most important and want track time

constantly changing weather requiriing constant change in program to keep the most amount of people happy

Retard who break rules, requiring more changes

Oil downs, also from retards, making track worse

Eastern Creek and CAMS stepping in at times.

the list goes on

Anyone who has run a national level event, let alone one with 1000 entrants, will tell you it aint easy.

They did the best they could for the situation. A lot of people would have closed the track all day Friday and most of Saturday, but they did what they could to keep pople doing something. Organising motorkhana/drift/thrash demos o the straight was a great idea to keep people amused and something happening.

After all the practice, how cant they have the organization for this SPOT ON?

R33 in the burnout comp was uselessLoved the drifting Total of about 8 holdens broke down or crashed... (yay)only loud riders were the blue nsx , an rx7 and maybe 1 or 2 silviasOne very very diry r32 worth the $35 in my opinionOh and chips and drink was $10? .........

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
