In what will probably turn into a Summernats regular thing,I've booked a table or three at Da Cellini's restaraunt for Friday the 7th of January.Da Cellini's is the one on the roundabout in the middle of Lonsdale Street,Braddon.It's opposite the Mobil/car wash and the car dealerships.I was there last year with a bunch of friends,enjoying all the sights as we had a great feed and one(maybe 27...)too many drinks.Parking is at a premium,so plan ahead!OK,so it's mainly V8's,but come out and enjoy the fumes/skimpy clothes/million dollar paintjobs!At this point in time,there's 4 people confirmed,another 8 spots are available.Last year,we had more people want "in",so once the booked tables were full,people had to let me know they were coming and I added on-the owners of the restaraunt were really good about it.More than 12? Bring it on! We kick off at 7 p.m. Send me a PM or just post an "OK!" up to let me know you're coming. (partners/girlfriends/boyfriend/pet rocks/pay-by-the-hour-"friends"-WHOEVER!Just let me know how many!

Are interstate visitors welcome? :)

This would be my 5th Nats, and i have entered my car in once (about 2-3 yrs ago), burgundy R33 Gts-t, Victorian Personal Plates, 19" rims(dual 5 spoke) [Lenso Muse].

Unfortunately, the car is staying home and i will be driving up in my company ute [Free fuel :P], so if ya see a big guy in a white ute with a "WEDDERBURN" logo on the side, give us a wave, i will be wearing one of various SAU Vic t-shirts.

Hoping to see a few awesome Skylines there!

Hi Al,

More than Welcome mate. We have some awsome lines here and growing all the time. 1st post on this thread is where we will be Friday night. Cruising Wednesday/Thursday eve Braddon area. Sure to give a awave and warm welcome.

Mixed feelings about taking the lines to the Nats so you may/maynot see a few in the carparks. I understand MYSHY32 is in the Horsepower Hereo's and his car will be on show Saturday in the middle of the track?

Never entered the burnout event, cnbf waiting in the huge ques and missing all the action. Just cruised the curcuit and dropped a few burnouts, every now and then, to shut the holden/ford boyz up :). Also entered the show n' shine in the middle of the grass field.

Here's a pic

    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
    • Wow! how times change 2017 $15k seems expensive... now $30-$50k is the price.
