Well neither of you look that old, but you sure are sounding like old, bitter and twisted men :P

My lsd is shagged so car would be usless around Winton and just fry the tyres:( And have to find where the oily smell is coming from my car, either power steering or clutch slave cylinder perhaps???

Smoking tyres ay troy. That would be awesome for DECA around the skid pan!

For the oil leak have you checked where a set of wires go into the gear box for the reverse lights, i know i've got a bit of a leak there, but with a bit of silicone its all good.

I must say it was a lot of fun sitting on turn one, you could hear everyone screaming down the stright then jump on the breaks. The forester that was running around looked like it was going to go head over heals every time he slowed down! If my car isnt up for a track day at any stage i will be lending a hand again, espically when they give you free beer at the end of it all!

If it wasnt for the flaggies and 2-way radios i was so going to blast past him on the cool down lap :evil:

It would of had to been a sneak attack as a twist of an ankle would have put me back in my place :chairshot

Does anyone know who to speak to with regards to getting the gallery updated for 2005 events, it seems we all have pics from this day, it would be good if there were all in a central location?!?!?!

PS...i thought about it, but figured no one would have been impressed. Stupid, impulsive actions like that usually end up in tears, lol, especially when my first impression is its a good idea:(

Drew (jorg) - really nice to meet you as well. And a huge Kudos to your Mrs for giving it a go as well.

Can you tell us about your car? Pretty stock still?

Nice to meet you to Andrew. It was the first time I had got the car out on a track after putting it together, it has been a bit of a mission.

It is an R32 GTR I imported last year, I plan on doing tarmac rally stuff and a few track days, so it has been tuned conservatively to keep it all together. Apart from a decent cage and seats, it runs 6 pot AP's on the front and RE55's.

I am off to the Maserati day at Winton this weekend get some more time behind the wheel on the track.

Georgie (my wife) got in a few laps, I need to be careful though because we used to run a WRX and she got too close for comfort to my times........not sure how I would handle her going faster than me!

    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all. 
    • Ok. What is the go to transmission upgrade that can handle some abuse with around 700nm at the hubs? Must be quiet gears as the car is being street used.
