The GrpA & GrpC boys will be racing at Eastern creek including 2x GMS HR31s.

Saturday 19 will be practice and 1 race in the arvo. Sunday 20 will be 2 races in the morning with a possibility of another race in the arvo time permitting (which it generally doesn't)

what other cars do they race against?

last time there was an xf falcon, few vk commos, sierra (beat the lot of em), and some others.

good day mate. you should come out and see.

best part of the day is checking out hooker in his sexy winfield outfit!

Ok, times...

Race 1 is down for 11:15am on Saturday morning. First practice and qualifying are from 8am.

The first 2 races on Sunday are for 11am and 12:15pm. There may be another race at 4pm if there is enough time.

I don't know if there is any fee to get in but I've got a pass so nyea nyea :devfu: .

88Sillo, I'll be at the track around 7-8am Saturday, same Sunday. We are in the new garages to the left after you go through the tunnel near the medical block.

top day. only got out there for a few hours (and missed the bloody HR31 race!! :))

hooks showed me the times set my Rod in the HR. second fastest in his group I believe!

bloody fast. heap of other cars too --> sunbeams, zeffas, the works

see ya next year

I went out on Sunday at 2.30pm, was some pretty close interesting racing. Haven't seen those class of cars race for many years (well the old Amaroo Park days). Some pretty damn quick drivers/cars too, I timed a few 1m29sec cars :)

Yea, there was all sorts of weird vehicles racing.

The one that did it for me though was the red with a yellow stripe Lola driven by Wayne Park. If that thing didn't have 2 foot wide slicks on it I'll eat my hat!

Had the mumbo too, 88Sillo and I watched as it came around turn 2 in the warm up and the driver gave it a small squirt and turned it around.

Broomph---180! Hugely impressive considering the rubber!

There was Alboreto's F1 Ferrari there too. The 1.5litre turbo. It had a 3 position switch marked 650, 750, and 1000. I'm excited!

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
