Shit yeah i'm in, my Tein is already on its way to queensland. Just need to save for tyres and a service.

[Roy]

I should be a goer, im begging on street corners to pay for the new diff

If its in on time then ill be there

[tmp_ant]

I'm in and can't wait.....It has been waaay too long since my last track outing and I have some new 'toys' to play with B)

[Snowman]

So Ant - does this mean you are no-longer in 2WD Standard Class??

Either way you are going to have to drum up some competition as last month we had no-one in 2WD standard.

[tmp_ant]

hehehe...not just yet Snowie I figure I'll finish this championship in the class I started in and maybe upgrade before next year.

I noticed the numbers were really down last round...not just in std class but across the board......COME ON PEOPLES - GET YOUR BALLS OUTTA YOUR MUMS HANDBAG AND JOIN TEAM WANG ON THE TRACK B)

[West]

Does anyone know where i can get a decent set of 245/17 and which brand to get?

I'm not after S03 or anything fancy like that, any ideas? Something that last me for our last two rounds, no stickie needed as i dont' want to carry too much speed into conner either, can't afford an engine rebuild yet.

Thanks

I like the sound of Winton! I am up for lap timing and photos again. And of course some Wang Busters.

[Bec]

hahaha

Alan - you could come out and do some officiating with me.

Hey andrew have you guys got a championship ladder like the rex guys? , it would be good to see what times your cars are doing . Ive got the VL commo thats at most of the events and during the last winton their was a TX5 that was part of the group i was in which i noticed was running in the 41's . Is that for real ? cause my dad owns one of these and this thing must be a weapon in a straight line or the driver is very very gifted.

LOL...the TX5 driver had his transponder in a certain members GTR. I think he normally is in the low 1:50s approx

As for championship, yeh we have one going but we are still needing to work on numbers...to get an idea of the lap times see here

Bec just pointed out this is on a Sunday...anyone up for the Friday - Practice day, Sat-Skiing, Sunday-Sprint?????

And West, Falkenb 451 or the street pattern Azeni arent too bad a tyre and reasonably priced

But word of warning, i discovered early on in the piece that near new road tyres dont liek track work purely because of the trad depth and the tyre blocks getting warm and walkign around. So if your current road rubber is legal then have a play with that then get the nice road rubber for the street.

Perhaps Ant/INASNT can give you an idea of the tyres they used this year and how they stood up

That is funny, I hadnt realised what was going on!

Bec - Thanks for the thought I might stick to timing, photography and accompanying mavric on his "must eat all hot dogs from the burger bar" missions.

West maybe try one of those 2nd hand tyre joints that a few people go to. I'm yet to try them but a mate has got some cheap tyres from there a few times, SP2's etc... I know Geoff gets his tyres from one as well. Your size tyre should be easy to get a decent set.

My rear tyres (Hankook Silica 104's) are stuffed and have big chunks of rubber coming off them after each track day. The fronts show evidence of alot of walking around from the near new tyres I used for my first rack day last year at sandown.

All in all a waste to use new street tyres on the track.

Don't know sorry, do a search I'm sure skylinegeoff has mentioned it a few times, along with some other people, there is more than one place... if you can't find one drop me a pm and i'll ask my mate for you.

INASNT: I have the same tyres on my car - hankooks - 4 track days and i think about 20,000ks on my hankooks and still going... no chunks missing, and still another 10,000ks on them i recon. Mustn' be driving hard enough.
