Its some exciting times with relation to lakeside.... for starters, Lakeside Motor Racing Enthusiasts (LMRE) are going to step up their attack on council... up until now, its been a case of throw a line, see wot happens, and evuluate their position on the matter... now its getting alot more serious... Basically, lakeside got heritige listed, yet the council are prepared to spend posibly millions of tax payer dollars fighting the listing so they can do with it wot they please... the catch is... whilst heritage listed... there is no requirement for them to maintain it... their hopping that it will rot away to nothing...and that everybody will forget it excists...

over the last couple of months council has however shown a slight weakening with regard to lakeside... only slightly.. but there is a ray of light.... secondly LMRE plans to host an event to show the support of lakeside to council... i'm talking a full blown speed event.. ie.. racing... now i don't know any details further than that... but it is a distinct possibility... and it would be a hell of a lot of good fun... and for a really good cause....

i know i probably should have written this earlier.. but please... if anyone can show their support tonight it would be fantastic... 7.30pm in petrie... checkout http://www.lakesideraceway.com for further details..... your support would be greately appreciated...

For those not able to attend there is something you can do to make a difference... basically we need to show council that we aren't just going to go away and forget about one of world's greatest ever race tracks... we need to pester them and send phone, email, faxes, sms whatever it takes to let them know this isn't going to go away... we want council to think that everytime a phone rings or an email downloads, "jeez i hope its not those lakeside supporters again!" its going to take that kind of commitement and determination to get lakeside back on the motor racing calendar....

If you want some sample questions or things to ask council, and where to send them to visit http://www.lakesideraceway.com/questions.htm cheers...

BTW... just for interest sake... the police are allowed to test at lakeside... and do it pretty much weekly...

Couple of months back they wrote of a police car on the armco coming onto the straight... :)

Could someone grab those questions and possibly make it a sticky?

Put it this way... i reckon that through the various internet forums around oz... that we could easily get 5000 supporters... all it would take is for each person to send just 1 email... or make just 1 phone call a week... and could you imagine wot would be happening in council... it would be mayhem!!!!!!!!

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
