I'd share a garage with you if I was entering :)

Turns out they don't take pre-bookings now, and you can only book them on the day. You need to call client services on 0418 554 734. A lady called Marnie is rostered on for this Saturday... confirm pricing with her but I believe it's $165 per garage (fits 2)

I'm told hey accept cash, eftpos, credit cards.. there is also an ATM on site.

That is so damned expensive - with bike trackdays you can fit 4 bikes in a garage and its $10 per bike, plus everyone uses tyre warmers, uses their electricity too.

Jeebus! 1:13 at sandown is decent. Still not quite as quick as that sports sedan thing that did a 1:06 :D but that's extreme-cheater-fat-slicks-tube-frame-6L-chevvy-carbon-everything spec.

Yeh I'm not sure how that works either.

It was on slicks for sure and was hella loud yes. I though he had entered WTAC, that makes sense.

Miles came second in Club Sprint @ WTAC last year - a bee's dick behind Marek. But that car is now too far out of Club Sprint regs with all the weight saving he has going on so he was going to run in Open but as I said tyres are still too much of an issue for R35's in Open/Pro so he withdrew. I'm really keen to see what the Cyber R35 does with tyres of the next few years of development because its the biggest issue facing Mark Hansen in QLD because the roll centres etc just aren't working properly running such small diameter wheels. He reckons they really need 19's as a minimum but there just isn't good tyres available in the bigger sizes.

Surely the 'embargo' on larger tyre development will cease within the next 18-24 months though....?

They have a pretty good Cafe on-site.

They do real Hamburgers, not out of the packet ones.

How many of you need membership notes by the way?

- Scott

- Dave (sorted Martin has your card)

L platers get same track time as rest so nothing to worry about there.

I'm on 98 and will be brining a full tank plus 60L if the forcast is ok, for 2L

If your vokda powered...umm lots??

Goddamn...your saying you will use over 100ltrs how much power you running..

guess I should just fill the boot then, good thing its only a buck a litre..

I'll be amazed if my car doesn't break before I got through a tank actually.

I'm going to bring 80L of ethanol, plus 3/4 of a tank, got to allow for the trip home.

Can we lobby the local United for an e85 pump? :)

Yes please, I mean the damn servo is ideally located for E85.

I'm filling up, uses about 1/2 tank to get to the Island. Bringing 4-6 jerry's (4 are filled now, if it can be assed filling the other two...not sure).

But you L platers won't use as much fuel as the rest of us.

Holy shit im bringing 40L of fuel plus half a tank. I thought that was alot. 98RON. 320kw.

You're not driving the car there though....

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
