Wakefield Track Day - 6 July 2007

[JustenGT8]

I'll put in a lap or two for you next time mate just so you can have a listen

[1JZ-Rolla]

Wish I could have heard it from outside. It sounded pretty good inside the car though

I can help you with this, just hand me the keys next time

Copped some attitude from the track marshall for taking a ute to the track, I guess he assumed I was only there for the sideways action & ute muster style burnouts or something managed a red flag for "going too hard" Will definately have to take the JZ panelvan next time.....

Cheers
Phil

damn you Justen, beat me to a reply by one minute... trust you to be first to offer to drive someone elses car haha. Fix that bloody GT8 and take me for a spin to show me where I lose 10 seconds in the bommadore ute

[whatthe?]

No problems Justen, I'll swap you a drive for a drive of the GT8

[JustenGT8]

I think that can be arranged Matt

the only gripe i have about it is the fact they canned the very last street car session because that m3 did a massive spin infront of that orange ford race car, during "vital testing"

oh, and way to many evos.....

Its always been the way at WP... anytime Natalie Wilmington is around you may as well just retire to the pits cause you know she will get priority over anything else there It was no different back in the days of the 1/8th mile drag racing there either, always managed to get the solo passes to advance to the next round of bracket racing etc...

[whatthe?]

Was that the blue M3 that the driver reckoned he'd done 1.03s before?

I think that guy would have been lucky to do 1.30s if he could have kept it on the track

[alwaysRA23]

i didnt really talk to him, he was a young asian bloke who didnt really seem to care about ending everyones day a session early...

he seemed to be mates with the some of the evo blokes....

Edit - Anyone get any pics or vids from today?

I didn't take any pics but my mate Shaun did once his Wagons diff carked it, I'll get him to burn them to disc and then distribute accordingly via email etc.

I sat the video camera on the corner coming onto the main straight after our first session out on the track, it ran non-stop for 20 minutes and didn't catch any decent offs I can't edit the footage at the moment or burn it to disc either until my DVD player comes back from repair. I'll be happy to burn the footage to disc though when I can.

.....Shaun did once his Wagons diff carked it,

Did he get it looked at yet?

[YLD-16L]

Did he get it looked at yet?

Not yet I don't think, although I had a missed call from him this morning so he may have dropped it off already?

So who wants to pick a date to go again in about 4 weeks time?? I'm keen

[whatthe?]

I'll be in that (hopefully with new brakes)

[MR22ZZ]

If I find a radiator by then, I'm keen.

If I don't find a radiator by then I'll be mighty pissed off...

[YLD-16L]

Empty a handful of pepper into the system..........I'm sure it'll be good for a lap or two



Do we want to do the same again, I'll pick about 5 dates, run a poll, most popular date wins and we rock up? Or do we just want to pin down a Friday in the next 4 - 6 weeks and stick with it??

I just think Fridays appear to work well with the longer drive for the Sydney guys.

Post your ideas and we'll get another thread started asap.
