Oh, and because its a new page, to save people backtracking....

Wakefield speed off the streets

saturday 14th december

So come and join the fun... be there or be a rhombiod parallelagram. :blink:

That sounds good Mik, im happy to help chip in for that.

Will see if my dads ovlov wants to come :P

I will also chip in :) How many cars to a pit? or to word it better, how many cars can fit in and around the pit garage?

you can get a day pass, is AASA cams L2s?

If it is its the way to go as it costs the same and lasts a year.

Ive got a couple of old helmets, medium, dirtbike and roadbike, but its best to get your own NEW one that fits good.

They are real cheap these days.

cooool man....... racing with Jeremy! :nyaanyaa:

What about you pat? Make it 4?

keen for then i have a thing at work due on the 6th dec so that ties nicely in with jeremy

Just a question. Do you need a full licence to race? I'm only on my ls and my dad was talking about seeing if his little fiestia ST would beat mine on a track haha

Shouldn't, just need to be older than 12, parents to sign off and some ability to drive. It's not a race, so you won't be racing.

Ok... rang them and he said:

Have to be over 16 to drive, under 18 you need an adult/guardian to sign for you. If mum or dad isnt coming, you could arrange one of us to sign, with their permission of course.

Your drivers licence doesnt matter.

You will need the AASA licence, you can get it on the day. Or if you already have cams level 2 speed thats ok.

One car per pit garage, so i dunno ill see how it goes, how much room in front and what the carports are like.

Hmm as Duncan(?) said the pits are mainly for the more race car type. It would be AWESOME to hire one out but if it only holds one car (Which I'm sure they will police) then maybe it's not worth trying to fit 4 cars in :P

awesome! yea im over 16. ill give my dad a call and ill let you know! I cant get my car down there if dads taking his car :(

Your Mother seems to enjoy the ride - take her in your car :)

Im sure we can work something out....4 weeks to find a driver to get your car there.

I can ride 2 bikes at the same time..... but not 2 cars...... arms arent long enough :laugh:

    • Something I meant to say when we were chatting the other night about having an open trailer floor being great to work on a car, but you've never used the feature... It's a great place to park a car after doing suspension component changes, and do the tightening of all the bushes with the car sitting at full ride height. Especially when you don't have a 4 post hoist!
    • That is way more science than even I would use. I just eyeball it, not even accounting for the non-verticality of the tape measure when held on the lip and the centre at the same time. +/- 2mm is good enough for the girls I go out with.
    • So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.
    • So....knowing that I have a problem with power steering temps on track and another Wakefield day booked in next Friday, I've done the obvious thing They are very reasonably priced at $1650, considering they are a big monotube shock, double height adjustable (don't have to change pre-load to change ride height), one way adjustable damping and standard sized and customisable springs if you want something other than what comes with them. They come with 9kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm front and I went with that as a starting point because I'll add adjustable sway bars too https://justjap.com/products/bc-racing-coilover-kit-ds-ds-infiniti-q50-v37-14-current#description Unfortunately they didn't come with rear strut tops so I've re-used the factory ones which was a bit of a pain. Also, the adjuster for the rear shock will be an absolute nightmare to get at, and while there are extensions in the kit I can't see any way you can actually attach or use them
    • I also had 2 bulbs blow at once, years ago in the stagea. made for a fun drive home. The issue was the voltage regulator had failed in the alternator and it was giving 15+ volts. Really, I was lucky all that was fried were the headlight bulbs. So, I'd suggest you check the voltage across your battery terminals with the car running and warmed up. Yes, you will need a multimeter to do so, sorry.
