Ah thats awesome news for me really. Went to Meek yesterday to get AYC bled and work out why my car smelt like petrol and was loosing major mileage per tank. Turned out i have a damaged petrol tank. This will give me enough time to repair the issue before the track day.

 

[dimi_108]

Yeah, this is good for me as well.
I'll have my new coil packs in by then and hopefully no more misfiring

 

[matchtheclown]

Yep I'll be there. Get a chance to put in my sway bars. woot.

 

[Guest]

Looks like its a blessing then, allows us to further fix/tune our cars

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Can't wait to see the Pic's of 6 VR4's arriving at terminal velocity at the end of the straight jockeying for position through the kink and into corner 2.

2x HD Video camera's (one fixed at end of straight and one panning/fixed to car)
3x Digital SLR's

should cover it......

And boys, pack your raincoats, long range weather for 2 June, 3 to 12degrees, 18k ne winds, 60% chance of Showers.

 

[VR-04-TT]

Fingers crossed the diff arrives and gets installed in time (and works!)

 

[matchtheclown]

Ahh crapsickles. I have an exam in wollongong at 9:30am. So I will be there late.

Well I'm sure I can rip throug hthe exam in 30mins... then the 154k's I have to drive can't take more than 1 hour at 6000rpm in 5th.

Doubt I'll make it before 12 :/ Appharently this might mean the morning trackers are done so there will be less peeps though. Yay.

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Lucky hugh,

use Macquarie Pass to warm up your tyres

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Ok guys, I have just spoken with Robyn (Track Administrator) @ Wakefield, it is definitely a speed off the Street day next tuesday 2/6/09, she said she has had no enquiries from other clubs re next tuesday, so it will be just those that turn up out of the blue on the day that we'll be competing with for track time

 

[rich]

I think I should be able to make it as well, do we have to book, or just turn up on the day?

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Yea Richard, just cruise down with the guys.

Wakefield know we're coming, so no need to book personally

Great to meet a long time lurker

 

[pu-11-me]

Do you need a CAMS licence to do this?

 

[VR-04-TT]

Nope, just license and rego for your car.

 

[pu-11-me]

I wish everywhere was like this!

 

[Kitty's VR4]

No Dawso,

Just a current State/Territory Motor Vehicle Licence, Wakefield Park then issue their own Licence (Valid for 12 months) and charge $50.00 for it.

So the next time you go to Wakefield you show your Wakefield Licence and off you go

They didn't check rego papers or even scrutineer our cars last time.

Also check first post, I'll apdate weather there, Its going to be Raining by the looks of it. So at this point bring wet weather clothing......

I'm thinking of doing a big pot of Soup and rolls for everyone, to defrost them during the day

 

[pu-11-me]

Yeah they run under their public liability then...... The drifters here do the same thing. None of them join the local club because they don't need club affiliation to drift.

That means that we have a lack of numbers, lack of money and lack of motivation for people to do anything as everyone else gets to enjoy all their hard work!

Clearly Wakefield gets enough bookings to be able to sufficiently hold its head up running with people under public liability. I envy them lol

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Its a very popular events venue, everyday there is car trailer after car trailer going thru town heading out to Wakefield, plus alot of race teams do testing here.

 

[Guest]

Any of the Sydney people meeting up on the way like at the mobile down the freeway south of Sydney. And what time would we meet up?

Also what tyre presures is everyone going to be running as I know it was an issuse last time.

So how many people from MCS are going? I hope no one is put off by a bit of rain

I'll link up with you guys in town (either at the Mobil in Goulburn for further down the main street for a coffee)

Gates at wakefield open @ 8.00

I'm going to start at 40PSI and go from there.

Disappointingly only 1 from MCA at this point - Aza with the White FTO
