Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

It seems i unwillingly opened a can of worms here

Big call. Depends on what you call larger scale I guess...

by bigger track day/car event I mean by number attendance

Happy laps and powercruise are NOT track days :glare:

To me any event that is held at a race track is a track day. Regardless of how amateur/fun/serious it is

Is it during day time: yes
Is it on a track: yes

I will agree that happy laps is not a "track day", but don't drag events like powercruise through the mud. It is the upper pinnacle of what it is, and a win there basically puts you one of the fastest usable cars in the state.

Winning/placing at events at "Powercruise" is the be all end all as far as I'm concerned...

Powercruise is high on the list for the common car enthusiast.

Only if you consider a world outside drag racing, which apparently these guys don't

Powercruise can EAD.

Im not all about drag racing.... Interesting fact #6287: I've never taken my r33 to the drag strip, ever.

I have, it took me a few years to recover, and almost made me part my car and burn the rest just to make sure I was never associated that rajab awful cesspit of bogans.

Let me guess, you got chopped by a few commodores and you hurt your little Gtr ego?

McFly, telling it how it is.

I can see the merit in powercruise for those inclined that way but I wouldn't call it a track day. Nick, come to the QR sprints :yes:

If i had the $$ id set my car up for sprints and have a stab at it. Unfortunately it isnt and i dont have the $$ so i dont. Plus my driving talent is poor lol

My driving talent also sux - I will still give a track day a go when I am ready.

Children children! you buncha one eyed bigoted closeminded snobby noseup retarded ratbags.

the word "track day doesnt have its roots in circulating at speed around a race track in a car at all. Athletics have track days, horses have track days, cars have track days.

What you do when on the track is your affair but it is a track day regardless.

Drag racers have track days, time attackers have track days, bogans have track days, drifters have track days dirtbikers have track days, rc fans have track days. drug addicts have track days and for those old enough to remeber even swagmen have track days.

Sprinters are looked down upon by door to door racers, drag racers are looked down upon by sprinters and door to door racers, burnout boofheads are looked down upon by drag racers and spring racers and door to door racers.. power cruisers are looked down upon by segments of all the above and drifters are the scum of the earth according to most.

Take it from an old head. pretty much all of the above can give you an adenalin rush and make you wish you went and had that quick piss before you lined up.

Drag racing is a science in its own right as is time attack and door to door racing. (similar but with some differences)

power cruise is the showcase to all that is holy to the tough street car brigade. regardless of make model or country of manufacture there is true art on display at these events along with horsepower beyond imagination. To suggest that all one needs is a phat engine to be a player in that game is ignorant. the majority of the better cars are built from the ground up with a singleness of purpose to rival any found in other disciplines of motorsport.

You dont know what adrenilen is until you are circulating on a track with a 100 other cars and a collective hp effort totaling may thousands. Its a sight and sensory overload regardless of what you think of the tatood mullet hangin out the window of the car beside you.

Lighten up kids. dont just look over the fence and sneer, jump the bloody fence and go have a play.

you may be surprised.

I think this is the first time I have ever seen Noel post in here

Holy mother of replies, well said old man :)

This being probley my favorite line of the whole thing: power cruise is the showcase to all that is holy to the tough street car brigade.

And talking about mullet sporting bogoits Scott can vouch for how much we wanted to blow old bud in that [skids] ute away at PC.

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
