Kelly is going to kill you when she sees that :D

who's kelly. when's the next practice session which requires no license, and how crowded are they. i know i'll get laughed at for driving an N/A on there, but I jus wanna have a feel for it.

Snowman - going to do the HSV sprints at Sandown (8 August) or the WRX Club sprints at Sandown (15 August)?

Mate - am running the Dutton from August 6-8 so will be giving those events a miss. But as posted earlier am going to look at Phillip Island later in August. The next NDSOC/MSCA event is the hill climb at Rob Roy which doesnt overly excite and the following is Phillip Island in Sept so going and having a practice weekend with PIARC sounds good to me.

Funky - Calder every Wed and Winton every Friday are open and don't need a CAMS. Just a helmet and ankle to wrist clothing.

And put it this way - if it wasnt for our 5 cars at Winton there would have been 3 others on the track. A quick HSV (hate to admit it but it was damn fast) some yellow thing and a super quick Ford Focus racing car.

ahem roy - i believe i listened to your dribble for over an hour on saturady nite

That you did, pass the girl a bourbon and coke, woops i drank them all :D

Id rather not too many photos of me in the car get posted thanks, sorry dont want to be a spoil sport , but....

...and there will be no racing of Wangs while im in the room thanks :P

impressive chris, 1.41 well done :D

Funky still worth getting your car out there mate, good to see what it can do, and handling would be more important than power on a track like winton.

the HSV wasn't THAT fast... aggressive driver, good rubber and it must of had handling work done on it, give me some sticky rubber, my handling kit and about another year or so to learn how to drive and i'll whoop it :P

as for the ford focus..... :Oops:

I'm Kel. I don't have any balls but still like a bit on the track :D

You can check me out on the NSW Dutton Rally Speedweek coverage or in the next edition of Fast Fours :wassup:

i've hooked up my xbox to the logitech steering system... couple of hours of practice on it and i should be able to pick the best lines. then maybe a cameo appearance on the track to see what my can do... more for fun and curiosity than anything.

guys if u want more of a laugh, there is somethin my gf and her friends made up at skool when she lived there

it was called "DOING IT WANG STYLE" (wangaratta style)

there were quite a few girls at her skool doing it (luckily she wasnt)

if anyone wants to know this sexual explicit stuff, pm me so i dont get into trouble for posting it up

I'm Kel. I don't have any balls but still like a bit on the track :thumbsup:

Are you the star in the Beemer with the panel damage? :) good one, you were so cool about it.

Guys and girls. if you are interested in a track day then just make sure everything is working good, especially brakes and come along. You don't need to have a setup that will challenge Jim Richards' Porka at targa. The first few times will just be learning anyway. Take it from someone who has spent a lot of time on the track in open wheelers and sports sedans. The faster you are going the less time there is to concentrate on actually learning to drive. As the pic says, It takes 2 balls (or the mental equivalent, Kel) and be prepared to have some fun. No-one, I repeat, no-one will take the piss if you are prepared to come and try so Just Do It.

Kami, what exactly is Wang stlye :)? Pm me. I spent some time in Wang myself years ago working. Definitely didn't touch any schoolies though.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
