Following the positive feedback from the track day on Monday 11th July 2005, Paul & I have decided to book the track (Queensland Raceway) again for Tuesday 30th August 2005.

We will also change the track format mid day to give drivers some variety.

Cost will be the same at $110.00 each and spectators are still free.

Drivers will be required to have a current AASA, CAMS, or MA licence. Licences can be purchased on the day. ($20 for 1 day or $55 for a year)

Numbers are limited, so let me know ASAP (payment into the below account will secure your spot)

I have set up a CBA account for the track day

Commonwealth Bank

BSB: 064 183

Account: 10117368

You need to put your username on the deposit so I know who has paid.

Regards,

Tim

Hi Peter,

You have been added to the list already from your post in the other thread. I will be sending out the formal email on this track day tonight and also pizza night.

You can pay either Tim or myself as we are working together on these days now.

I already have 28 reserved spots for this day, so get in quick to reserve a spot.

If you want to be added to the track day mailing list, PM me your email address.

Paul

Excellent. I'll make sure your on the list.

Anyone who is on the mailing list, the best way to reserve a spot is to send me an email. If your not on the mailing list and want to be, PM me your email address and I'll add you and send you the latest Time Attack Track Day email and an invite to Track Day Pizza night. You don't have to have driven to come to pizza night, its open to anyone interested and wants to come along to check it all out.

hey Gary,

Yes I have you on the list. But I am overbooked for this day so I have asked everyone to either pay now or let me know the day they will pay so I can finalise the start line up. Looks to be the biggest track day yet.

If we keep growing I hope to go to a full day format soon.

ok,

I will try and get the money into your account next week, not to sure if i can as i am away with work and have a very hectic week next week. I f i cant get it to you i will ask Trent to get it to you. But i am a definite, there will be nothing short of WWIII to keep me away.

Cheers

Gary

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
