NOTE: All the rules etc are in my standard track day email which I will send you when you PM me your email address. Also mention if you want to be on the mailing list or are just in for this day.

For the volunteer list, if we get several people we can swap roles - so not one person is stuck with a job for the whole session.

I think its still a bit of EOI If I am guessing correctly?

So we will need at least 15 cars or it is not worth going ahead with the day.

p.s. you guys who don't have one will also have to factor in $50 for a QR racing licence I believe.. this requires a valid drivers licence i think as well.. i.e. if you have lost your licence currently you might have to sit out.

Can someone confirm or deny this to a CERTAINTY because at willowbank (drag strip) many were sure you required a non suspended provisional drivers license to race but thats not the case as I raced there on l's way ago......im not having a go at you gordo I just want to know as on the day I will have a license however it will most likely be lacking points.....ie suspended. I doubt this should matter as having a license doesnt even matter for getting a cams license or andra license etc..if anyone knows, let me know.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
