Thanks to all involved in today, my daily survived half a day and once the storm hit i decided to quit while ahead and in one piece.

Heres a video of a fun lap i had putting down only a low 22 but was my driest run of the day, way off the pace of my dry time in my track car of a 15 but still fun.

Enjoy the video and ill be working on a Holy shit sliding video highlight soon, including a guest starring white stag turn 5 :P

Had a great day driving a lemon, well done to Mr Wootten came out on top in the tricky wet conditions.

I think the R31 lemon really proved it self today with over 100 laps for testing and placing 5th and 6th outright for the day.

Big thanks to all involved in organising the track day.

Had a fantastic day, first time driving in wet condition on a track.... Nankangs made it even better :P

The LeMon really proved to be a reliable and consistent car, not bad for one of the lowest powered cars on the day.

Cant wait to hit the track again very soon... This time with a few more KWs ;)

Thank you organisers, thanks Alex for your guidance and thank you SMSP for providing much needed pit tents!!!

Had a great first track day learning the limits of my car (and myself) in the rain.

Did achieve my milestones set for the day

1. Don't destroy my car (Despite a very near miss on my first un-pace car corner!)

2. improved times from session to session.

Was too exhausted to troll through my camera footage but will do shortly!

Cheers,

Mathew

You know you're doing bad at a track day when you have to let an R31 by... :rofl2:

Haha a $1000 N/a 140hp R31 makes it even worse :P

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • 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
