Hi guys, Had a good run home without a drama. Just want to thank you all for a fabulous weekend, and it was for sure one of the best weekends i can remember. The Supersprint was a pure adrenelin rush. Where else can you lay rubber and floor the accelerator and drive as fast as sanely possible with NO WORRIES. The Hillclimb....well exciting and real "Heart in the mouth" stuff. All in all just a fantastic weekend and can't wait for another motorsport weekend like that.

Once again it was great meeting you all and look forward to our next meeting.

Ian :D

yeh Fantastic Weekend :P The track wasn't as daunting as I expected it to be... was plenty of room and plenty of grip

definately looking forward to next year!!!! OHH YEH

VERY happy with my time :)

can't wait for the results from the BLCC

PICS PICS PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL

Was a great weekend guys and good to meet some new ppl and be able to put faces to names. I am there for sure next time round and will also keep u guys posted on the hillclimbs down here at huntley for anyone interested.

Cheers

Scott

P.S I was great to see the whole weekend run so smoothly without any damage or major problems.

OK...well done to everyone that competed on the weekend....

Our first time racers Scott and Steve did well in their first outing, its a hell of a place to run your first race :D And neither of you was shy either....

Ian, big thumbs up for your efforts, you were really up that car all weekend, I think you were probably pushing the hardest out of everyone from the sound those tyres were making....just gotta get some good ones and you'll be even further up the order

Mark, you're a poof for thinking about the 4 door :P the 2 door sounded and went great...you just need more boost :D

Tosh, well done, if I saw correctly you had the fastest time from the club on the hillclimb.

Ray, SK and SoSK, Honda boyz, good to catch up with you all there, don't forget to send the form in Ray :P And it was great to meet Sydneykid and SoSK in the flesh for a beer (or scotch and coke)

Also thanks to Zebbie and Bill for organising the dinner and heading along to support us out there, it was a good weekend.

I would have loved to hit the track, but hitting the beers was the next best thing.

The only real down side was the $700 odd that club members donated to the Bathurst highway patrol :slap: to you two....and of course thanks to the local businesses for providing "special" prices to the sydneysiders :D

Pics are coming tommoz

An 8min (9mb) vid of about 100 runs is here: http://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/Bathurst2004.wmv

haha yeh needs to go quicker and I need more practice on it.....

suspension first before more power me thinks

I really want to see if I can take that VB corner in 3rd and still come out of it with some decent revs... DAMN RAIN!! If I can pull 4th before the line I'll be laughing

God I remember that event. I did it 16 years ago in a twin cooper S engined GoGo mobile. I did not know it was still running. The funny thing is that there was a blue torana Sports sedan in Duncan's video that looks like my old car.....ahh memories....I need to get back on the track:wassup:

    • 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
