I got my entry in. I haven't been to PI before, I paid the full $210 but is it worth doing the Driver Training instead or will I be allowed to get someone experienced to sit next to me and show me around in my first session and then do the rest of the day solo?

Do DT, you get a discount, you still get timing.

usually you get a smaller group

and one of us can be in the passenger seat for any of your runs!

I'm in too :)

Gunna be a big contingency of WTA cars there. Big Red, Chasers Evo and maybe more.

Also MSCA have a day on sunday I might have a crack at as well.

Sandeep prob not a bad idea to do driver training. I think you can go on your own later in the day.

Ahhh damn I wish I would have the car 100% sorted by then. I want to do a Sandown first so it's closer to Melb in case I break it... cbf towing it myself until I have my own trailer

In as well. Busting my PI cherry! Pretty excited!

Whats the status of your thing Snowy? What are the boys up to?

Fixing/upgrading the gearbox. E85 has taken the car past the stock internals limits.

You can see the clutches were giving up even at 3/4 throttle - until it finally broke something at the end there.

I emailed Dirk from WRX club and he recommended I do 1 or 2 sessions with the DT group with an instructor (Richo or Martin?) and then can do the rest of the day solo since DT sessions aren't timed.

This will be my first track day, but I would also like to have a timed lap.

Does that mean that I have to pay two fees?

Driver Training $190

Standard Entry Fee $210.

Total: $400?

Can you do both or just one?

I'm happy to just do the driver training, but I would like to also get a timed lap - so what should I do?

    • Does this count as a time trial as well? I got all gold in the master super licence (1 lap time trial) and received a McLaren MP4/4 for my trouble.  If anyone else has done this, did you ride the wall right around the first long right hander at Lake Louise snow track to get gold? I couldn't do it any other way... best I could do without riding the was was within 2 tenths of the gold time.
    • I definitely get the low power, sporty car to drive to smash gears but not be doing eleventy million miles an hour! It makes all the normal drives fun!   Rev match tune sounds like the funs! I didn't know the NC had a DBW throttle!   As for me, still have the Skyline, it still has the Barra in it. It's been pushed to the side of the workshop at the moment. Pretty much waiting on me finishing the wiring, and dropping new fuel lines in. Got myself an ACDC Tig end of last year so been teaching myself TIG welding to build a few things for the Skyline. The missus wrote off her GTB liberty at the end of last year, and got it back on salvage rights stupid cheap. It's also still registered, so will mean easier for me to take to the track already done most of the panel damage, just playing "clear the workshop" to make space to pull the motor and box out, fix some oil leaks, replace the clutch, and replace a few minor broken things.  Also got a Lathe at the start of the year, which is adding to the annoyance of no space, which is another reason I'm trying to build things to get more space, to get the Lathe back in a final home for it. It's a BIG lathe, can turn a 355mm diameter, and 1metre between centres... Got it at a steal! So between it and the TIG and old MIG welder, I'll be fabbing some fun little shit up But we've had a lot of shit stuff happening at home, so it's slow going getting things done. But one step at a time!
    • I love Catalunya.  Got a 1:54.632. The AMG is a hoot.
    • I hadn't got that far, my main worry was the connection to the actual calipers themselves. I'm just using new (ish) stock brake lines in the stock setup. I've just had a stud welded to the knuckle that is a little lower than the original stud (so my knuckles have two studs each side) to not have it be stretched so far in previous BBK setups, so the "block" (in the second picture) mounts a little lower for me and I hope I don't need to change anything. I may have even changed the connection to the calipers in the past and have since forgotten I did that. I may not have. Guess how I'm gonna find out. Source: hopium
    • It's more so I'm using the 1x piece line from HEL that goes from the body to the caliper. There's no middle block/mount like the HFM ones or the GKtech ones. There are certain angles/suspension compression where the line actually slightly contacts the ARB. Below of how mine sit (not my photo): How I want it:
