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.

in.. I was up for the May track day anyhow..

dress code is yes.. plus you need a giant pea on your head josh.. to match your brain

hmm.. hopefully I can get an upgrade done in time or I'll be last .. that can't be good..

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.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
