Glad to see the perk in interest.

Like others indicated it isn't a full on track day but great way for folks to go see what it's like for a taste. There are lots of other opportunities but expect them to be around a few hundred bucks for a track day and 50-70 for a skidpan. But then there are requirements like motorsport licenses and fire extinguishers.

If you've ever wondered about motorsport but sitting on the fence get in on this if you can!

Technically I think you need a fire extinguisher for this. From what I read in the regs. I'm yet to receive a email with the extra details they said they'd send.

Best to check with them if you dont have one.

What did you recieve?

All I got was an email saying they recieved it and everything looked fine. More info in the coming weeks.....

Will say Hi,

don't laugh too hard when you see a Volvo out there.... :P

i'll come down and take pic's :)

BTW 1:14.77 to beat!

1.06.1 to beat :D

however, for 30 bucks you guys cant go wrong for this day, more the atmosphere too, it'll be fun!

Ill be there definately with my blue GTST 33. You cant miss that either. Im sure there was only limited spots so im guessing all of the drivers will meet at some point :) cant wait to put her on a real race track and not just a skid pan or air strip. Wondering if i need helmet or not. I already have extinguisher so thought helmet might be a good idea :) Getting excited only a week to go.

Great im the only one in the red group :( Looks like ill have to represent SAU alone. The red group is starting at 730am! then yellow, blue green, the times looking at the scedule are spread over the whole day. I will probably stick around and watch some of you guys as i have nothing else on that day :) Ill make sure to come say hi. If you want to watch me set your alarms early lol.

think cause i was so early in my rego like december last year i got first group :( should have held off :( oh well ill show up all the comadores and falcons for u guys lol

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
