Wakefield Park Track Day - Friday 20th of June!

[-GT-]

So by luring you into that, have you just done yourself out of a go??

And hire cars generally run out of (hand)brakes after a lap and a half, at most. So it's a real 1 lap qualifier style run...

I went to a private day last year and 3 blokes shared an Audi A4 all day long. Ruined the tyres and brakes were screwed but it still looked like fun. Don't know what they said when they returned it

It happens a lot more than you would think.

Avis: "Would you like to purchase excess reduction..........."


I remember seeing a quote on here a while back:

"Passengers are weight adding peices of shit"

Dylan, I thought the 4A was going strong ? whats the story ?

you know 4As... they go their best right before they go like crap...

It may not be as bad as I first thought, I may have got excited and jumped the gun on the dropped cylinder. I'm putting a new dizzy cap and rotor button in there tonight and hopefully that will smooth things out. I should also change the fuel filter at some point too I think.

Ever since the MR2 run through the Southern Highlands a couple of weeks ago it just hasn't felt right. Heading back up the Freeway from Albion Park it started making a bumping/popping noise so I wound back the timing and it died down, but it has come back and seems real bad in the cold. The cold bit (found out last night) now has me suspecting something electrical to, since I serviced the Dizzy last week (unrelated fix to stop the usual dizzy oil leak) I thought the extra $30 on the cap and rotor button was fair enough.

But anyway, that's getting off topic... but since when do threads involving Garth, Ed, Greg, Shane, etc ever stay on topic long anyway?

Well, it hasn't become homoerotic yet... that's a first

[MR22ZZ]

Give it time...

[YLD-16L]

Who's manning the glory-hole in the toilet cubicles this time?

Greg did a great job last time.

Now look what you've done dylan. We haven't even started talking about staying at the pelican!

Just be thankful matt's not here, he's always the instigator of that sort of behaviour.

[Draven]

anyone selling an ADR approved racing seat?

Linden's right - JZA80 seats are "sporty", but not great for circuit racing.

[MR22ZZ]

Try driving in leather 'sports' seats then.

[YLD-16L]

Try driving in leather 'sports' seats then.

For some reason I read that ^^^^ as this.............

Try driving in leather 'sports' pants then.

Fitting my bucket seat and 5 point harness was one of the best things I've done in terms of increasing my enjoyment at the track, no more fighting to stay in the seat and no more sore back at the end of the day, and no more helmet pressing into the roof lining.

Get much more feedback as to what the car is doing too.

[Draven]

I've got head clearance where did you mount your harness to?

[GUN METAL]

I agree, the race seat was the best money i ever spent.

I got mine installed with the 1/2 cage which also included a harness bar.

Be prepared to say TA TA to your rear seat tho
