hmm, why can't i quote? anyway, listen to ben12a - he knows what he's talking about.
altho, $1.30 a litre for 98RON? Stop living in the past buddy :D hehe

cameras, bring em guys, just make sure they are securely mounted BEFORE scrutineering.
I'll have a few spare for $30 each, with 4gig memory card, charged and ready to go, and mountable with gaffa tape and/or cable ties.
these cameras pass scrutineering at National level events, so no problems :D

Call / email me if unsure.

and yeah I'll bring my laptop Stika, should be able to find room on it somewhere for ya

5 sleeps to go...

pick up stickers today yep
changing camera positions - no problems mate, just have a chat to me in the morning, but you'll be sweet

3 sleeps to go :D
(well, if you're like me and barely sleep before an event, call it 2 sleeps, but 3 nights!)

why is i struggle to get up at 8am M-F with 3 alarms, yet on a day of racing I'm up at 5.30am with no alarms?

i recon it will be my last track day for a while - had trouble with supra going back into 2nd gear - almost had to slow right down - then put it in with minimal crunch..... which didnt help my flow around the track...


semi slicks gripped really well - which allowed me to give it more - and have a spin or two :)

i think we all did - at the same spot lol :friends:

definatley need more power - better suspension - bigger brakes

Cheers for the kinds words guys, yes it was a great day.
Nice to hear it was well organised, it was a labour of love

like i keep telling people, I did it all for me, it's just that if i go out by myself it costs $4k, but if I take a few mates with me I can split the cost ;) hehe

Cheers again for the stickers Stika - nice work buddy

Love the 2 OMG :o tire marks off the end of the back straight. I thought I might do the same on the track day I went on but I didnt have the Testicular Fortitude to brake late enough :no:

utube vid of me practising late braking - result is some pretty bad lines thru the corners.
just kept trying to brake as late nad hard as possible, after all, that's the sort of thing the day was about - learn your and your cars limits in a safe environment

believe it or not, didn't damage my tyres
