I'll be leaving at 4:45am (for a S.E. Meet point, I will swing by Burwood Highway / Springvale Road Dan Murphy's Carpark at that time if others are coming too...), then meeting a few others at Wallan BP Outbound (~5km past the "Wallan" exit on the Hume) at 6am.

Express your interest now, or I'll just drive straight there :P

I love your brand of hard love, Simon.

Yeah i'm in mate. I'll meet you guys @ Wallan BP. What time?

I emailed Circuit Club regarding Supp Regs last Friday, was told they'd be available within this week.

cool

(Shameless Plug)

If you're looking for breaky before race day, pop in to Bouwmeesters Bakery and grab a bacon & egg Roll :)

(The one with the glass fencing, tables & chairs outside).

Sounds good, what discounts have you arranged for your fellow club members?

As you know I should be seeing you at 6am at the Wallan BP. Looking forward to my first attempt at Winton. :)

Wallan BP -> Winton is 1h 35m according to Google Maps, so if we leave at 6:10am we should get there at about 7:45.

We still have no Supp Regs about the event, so don't know what time they even expect to be opening the gates (I'm assuming 7am)

Because of the semi-late arrival, I'm making sure to do the majority of my Scruitineering preparation on Friday night, so all I have to do is quickly unpack the car and get signed off.

Hi,

Winton track day is just around the corner! Here are some details for the event. Any questions let me know.

7.30: Gates open. Come in, prep your car and get ready for scruitineering. Cars will be inspected in your garage. They will be checked for secure battery, cleaned out interior and working brake lights. Your car must also have a muffler fitted.
8.45: Compulsory drivers briefing. If you're not here by now you might miss your first session.
9.00: Track sessions start. We will be running 4 groups. The first set of sessions will be untimed, and passengers will be allowed. The next rotation will be timed, no passengers. We will alternate like this until the end of the day.
5.00pm: Track close- pack up and get home safe.

All drivers and passengers must wear long sleeves, pants, closed shoes and approved helmet.

Cheers,
Adrian

Yeah tell me about it, can't believe it's taken them that long just to send that.

In for BBQ :)

Every second session we will be running passengers with no timing?

I know people like to take passengers for some fun, but Winton is a bit far to be driving for half the day to be tourist laps....

EDIT: Just had a response from the organisers. There is 70 entries, not 60?

Just as long as you don't coat the track in oil!! ;)

That's finally sorted (fingers crossed lol)

Or lose all camber in a wheel and smoke your rubber against a guard :P

Hopefully that is sorted also... farken cursed... :P

Looks like I'll only be out on track for half the day then lol. Passenger laps FTL. :(

This is what happens when you're a guest at another club's track day - if they allow passenger laps, then everyone gets less track time. IMO, Passenger laps are bullshit... the only 'passenger' allowed should be in Driver training sessions.

I agree... Should be 1 (or 2) groups of cars which can allow for passengers / combined with driver training and no timing... and 3 (or 2) groups of cars which are actually there to lay down some times...

Additionally, it's now 70 cars, not 60 as initially planned

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
