Wakefield Speed Off The Streets

[Pattey21]

For a basic helmet that conforms to the relative asXXXX did you guys just go to a motorbike shop?

[D.I.Y. Mik]

Yes, then when i knew the brand and size fitted nice, i got it cheaper online.

Aldi have helmets atm, probly the cheapest you can get.

Bike shops have them almost as cheap but many more brands, so, different shapes to fit your head.

[Pattey21]

Well im going to go up on the 12th september on a thirsday. If anyones keen to join!

[Sir Lord Van Von Vader'ham]

well im not going today as the car had a gate issue on the dyno last week.

new gate is on and tune booked for friday, so i'll be heading up on thursday as well Pat (assuming no other problems)

[Pattey21]

woohoo!

[Sir Lord Van Von Vader'ham]

sorry matie, wont be able to go on thursday due to work stuffs. but i have swapped my leave to wednesday instead.

[Pattey21]

Ah damn oh well

[Pattey21]

Such a sweet day. Did a 1:16.4 which isnt bad considering my tires are complete shit after a few laps and had cooling issues

[dontyellpl0x]

Sounds like fun. I do want to do one of these haha, one day.

[Got a Pulsar]

Would be heaps cool.

Well Done Patrick, room for improvement but a damn good start.

[Manuel Kasko]

Smashed my 1.20 lol

[Pattey21]

Cheers guys, i removed my tune and plummed the wastergate directly to the intercooler bung so it wouldn get hot so quickly, so not too bad time for a dead stock r33. I thought my brakes would be the first to fail but compared to my tires and cooling they were awesome.

Stock tune vs 250rwkw.

I think you likely made Kasko Cry.

[Sir Lord Van Von Vader'ham]

I only got 8 laps in on wednesday before i snapped an axle...

car felt good before that though. Managed a 1:10.1 in the lap before the snap, which is about a 1sec quicker than my normal warmup session.

[Pattey21]

Yeah i either did a engine or gearbox mount as my shifter now sits off to the left

[dontyellpl0x]

Yeah, thats what I'd be worried about... Damaging my daily

[Pattey21]

Yeah but you push your car as hard as you want/feel your card capable of. $400 later nismo engine and g/box mounts on their way

[a20089]

Sorry to hear that James. Hope you can put her back together quickly.

[Sir Lord Van Von Vader'ham]

thanks man, got a set being sent today. Hopefully here by friday so i can get them in on the weekend

[a20089]

Good having a slightly cheaper car to repair. Hate to think how many months my car would be in the garage saving up for a new axle.

Anyway track day this Sunday will be so much fun. Rain Rain Rain. GTR V HSV 4wd V 2wd. I'm never going to wear out these old Michelins at this rate.
