Now that were getting into the ''cooler'' months of the year i was thinking that maybe we could do a track day at wakefield park (seeing most people on hear are from syd & canb). And it could be a "friendly" time trail day for supras against sklyines. Anybody would be able to come along and enter but the main idea is to put the to makes/models of cars against each other. Just thought i'd put in an idea as i've been wanting to have a blast round wakefield for a very long time And would provide a good days entertainment.

sounds good gtr is hungry for some supra meat. i'm a regular at wakefeild and am eager to get back on. i usually check the wakefield website for open track days.

i do know of 2 supra's that 'might' be a threat to me but either way 'bring it on'

as far as i know the amount of skylines in canberra either gts-t's or gtr's would outnumber the supra owners 10-1. it'll be a slaughter at the track......in a freindly type of way.

p.s. no offence to any supra owners out there.

Whos supras???, I've got a friend(well a couple actually) who are on the forums and part of the syd mark iv club. And know most of the big power supra in canberra. I'm also part of the CCG (Canberra celica group) with the sprinter and soon to be in somthing to do with skylines as i'm buying Lee's R32 with the RB25 in it!!! That should kill of so fat arsed JZA80's!!!

It's a tight track for bigger cars. I was down there a few weeks ago and it's the first time my car actually felt 'big'.

Do it on a weekend for best attendance I reckon.

I dunno if maybe Sundays are better so people can prep their cars on saturday.???

I'd come anyway.

Thats the plan, been going through the going throught the forums, J-racing is hold a track day on the 12 october (sunday) at wakefield park. So that sound like the plan, i was at the last on and the turn out was good, only down side to sundays is that it cost's more. think it was about $150 last time. Were as "No Speed Days" are $80

1. luch it was in the recent speed mag the widebody trd. with a t78 kit, 330kw with standard fuel system, he'll be aiming for 450+ soon once he gets the fuel system sorted + 18/13 inch tyres at the back (semi slicks) he's a good friend and my nearest competitor here in canberra. he's a member as myself (red gtr) on www.shogunclubdivision.com

2. daniel it's gold and has been timed at 11. something sec down at sydney's new drag track, not too sure how it'll go at a circuit, he like me has been a regular at wakefield, but last i talked to him he is only interested in quarter mile times than circuit, but it won't stop him from having a go at wakefield.

it's good to see canberra has some nice/tough supra's to go up against the sydney boys. like abo bob has said it'll be good to have the track day on a weekend like sunday.

Ah, sharfty, The gold ESP supra, did and 11.2 last time he's gong to drag combat tomorrow. Only seen him at wakefield once, i had to help him when his car came off the trailor on his way back home.

if you already have the wakefield licence and you're own helmet it'll save you a few extra $$ regardless if you go during the week or weekend.

i do know it'll cost more to hire the track on the weekends (sat/sun) than it is to hiring it during the week.

but have it when it has an open track day (no speed limit) during the weekend which is maybe once in a blue moon.

when jerry from j-racing has a track day he charges through the roof, and makes at least 80-90% profit from it, which is ok for him but not ok for entrants.

hey whytry, i just remembered that ive driven past you before, i was i my bros R31 (blue executive) and we were both on isabella drive, i hung my head out of the windoiw and said nice and then u said thanks, then we went our seperate ways. i know this is probly heaps random but yeah...........

yeah but it sure as hell is loud ltsjayce and that's at idle i love the sound.

good meeting up with ya abo bob not a big turnout on sat which was good sunday was a bit busy but overall ok.

on another note meet a supra owner, forgot his name black, with chromies canberra car with a single turbo conversion one to look out for.

yeah but it sure as hell is loud ltsjayce and that's at idle i love the sound.

Ah,stop it:I'm blushing!Seriously,I gotta put something quieter(read:more legal)on it shortly,although it'll be hard going to something so strangled after being spoilt by the Nismo system....So,any update on the trackday?

check it on the n.s.w. thread under events, then track day.

Tried that:came up with 5th June-which has already gone...Did I miss something?Or did I not see an upcoming date?Keeeen for a lap or 20!

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
