[Sciflyer]

[Jai Philp]

[Jai Philp]

Hey Guys and Girls....
We NEED more entries for this thursday night... the Weather looks to be pretty good "Thursday Few showers, mostly morning. Min 10 Max 16"

[Tocchi]

jai, my entry was done today, but i had paid about a week ago.

how many entries does this event need before break even ?

[rxsevengt]

Will be there definately, Will pay on day if that's fine

[Sciflyer]

Looks like its gonna be a dry track!

[Brockas]

If all goes well in the next hour or so I should be there tomorrow night :)

[rxsevengt]

How do you find the 235's Brockas?

[monk_13]

Last minute entry sent in today. Now to get working on the car.

[Brockas]

How do you find the 235's Brockas?

We'll find out tomorrow night. I haven't run on them yet.

[Lonewolf]

Should be there provided I can enter with cash and form on the night.

with the new cams regs, i presume its just the blue triangle and secondary form of bonnet lock?
Can anyone clarify this from the last few events?

[monk_13]

no need for secondary bonnet lock from what i was told last time. do need battery triangle.

[FranZ]

Standard bonnet lock is actually two locks hence no addition is needed.

[Lonewolf]

exellente

new extinguisher and a triangle and should be good to go.

[FranZ]

Make sure the new fire extinguisher is tagged!

[Lonewolf]

fark, so much for the super cheap extinguisher.

Best place to purchase a tagged one on short notice?

[monk_13]

I got one today at revolution racegear, walked across the road and round the corner and got it tagged. cost $7 for the tagging and $44 for the extinguisher. Ask them where the joint is. they can explain it better than my drunk self. Is a 2 minute walk literally.

The name of the joint was BE Fire Protection and Air con (or something similar).

[Lonewolf]

work down the road from there, so shall do, cheers :)

[monk_13]

work down the road from there, so shall do, cheers :)

Edited post with name of fire joint

[Evilteddy]

Go Gear... sell them already tagged usually.

[FranZ]

Go Gear can also tag for $5 too I think.

Lesson learnt; go for cheap; often doesnt make the grade in one way or another!

[rxsevengt]

Fark, I just bought mine yesterday from revolution and their not tagged, also was unaware of the triangle being required for these events. Thank god you guys mentioned it haha
Can we still run if it's wet?

[Evilteddy]

Yes you still run, just makes it more interesting.

[Tocchi]

im just gonna get some blue tape :) a lot cheaper than buyer sticker sheets in long run.

and yeh, its still on if it rains, and more interesting lol

[monk_13]

I bought the sticker sheet, then went to officeworks and bought a sheet of magnetic stuff that you make magnetic business cards out of. Stuck blue sticker to that, cut too size and heymagicpresto blue battery magnet thingy. It didn't move for the entire event last month. And comes in handy as a fridge magnet as well!

I have a couple sheets of the magnetic stuff left if anyone wants. Will bring it up with me tonight. (Someone just has to remember to bring scissors to cut it to size.)

[FranZ]

Ive cut a heap of blue battery triangles out of top quality vinyl as it was too hard to try finding blue contact. You can have your very own for $2 :)

[Brockas]

I'm out :(

Dead battery combined with a dozen other things that need to be done means I just don't have time to get the car ready :(

[Skitzo]

all i read is "new power is too scary atm"

Get a boat battery. I have one in my car. Lasts ages without being started.

[Tocchi]

ok shane, i took upon your idea, went out and bought the magnetic sheet and another sticker sheet from revolution.

battery sticker works a treat.
tow point... well i didnt think that one through... something about magnets and plastic dont mix lol

[monk_13]

FUCKING LOL

[Lonewolf]

haha
new extinguisher mounted and triangle (used the one with the lightning bolt, flash eh?)

Should be good to go tonight

[Tocchi]

nearly time :)... the wait is killing me yet again. haha

[monk_13]

You know officially thats the wrong sticker - that sticker is to signify the location of a kill switch! Battery location is just a blue triangle with all sides being at least 150mm. ....just an fyi :P

[Lonewolf]

i had pondered that, and thought the same thing.
Chris Reynolds says the one with the bolt is cooler, so thats all that matters.

[monk_13]

Once again had a ball. New PB for me again. Down to a 61.5. Nice meeting a few more people, and cheers to Chis for the words of wisdom, helped immensely.

On a side note:

FUCKING LOL at the beached boat at the end of the night. Hurry up and youtube that footage Tocchi!

[Lonewolf]

Was good to meet you dude, car is hot, and pretty quick time too!

Happy to shave 2 seconds off my best time, and thanks to Jai for driving a couple of laps to show me a few pointers, and the kind words.

Brockas: Fark that thing moves HARD.
Tocchi: epic LOL

[Brockas]

Cheers Blake.


Tonight was a good test session for me. Only went out 3 times but everything worked perfectly for Collie on Saturday.

[monk_13]

Tocchi: Comedy Gold right there!! And you were right about the camera not being much good for night events. Cant see crap.

Brockas: That thing fucking pulls hard!

[rxsevengt]

Alot of nice cars there, Was awesome seeing how quick some of you guys are. I need to go back to kindergarton and do a few MC days before trying this again, Was also nice to find out I have a rooted left hand front shock!

[Lonewolf]

car looked awesome in the flesh, what sort of times did you end up doing?

[TPG]

Yeah that is a very nice looking rx7, some new suspension and it should be flying round the track!

I also have to thank Chris for his advice and it sure helped me get a new PB of 58.95

[Sciflyer]

Heh good to see im not the only one with dodgy camera night footage :-/

Top night as always, tahnks to Jai and the guys for organising, good to catch up with you all

Brockas nice work on the car mate, hauls ass :)

[bjohnson]

I couldn't make it out to this one.
I blew the car/racing budget for the month on a set of coilovers.

I'll be out next time to take a stab at my PB.

[Brockas]

Cheers boys :D


Phil, bloody impressive time with what is basically a lightly modded V8 Soarer!

[esky]

as a spectator the highlight of the evening was the guy in the white integra

driver No.22 A. Kok

i giggled ever time i looked at lap times

Lol, it was a female!

Ben: i thought you were leaving the XR4 stock!

[bjohnson]

Ben: i thought you were leaving the XR4 stock!

Close enough :)

[Turbo2.6L]

Was a great night with some very quick cars out! Managed to snag a 58.2 which seems ok for my second event?
Nice work on binning the FG Matt :lol:

We all commented on the sound of your car. Love it!

Sounds like a jet engine taking off when you come down the pit straight.

[Lonewolf]

it also looked "interesting" at times coming onto the main straight...

[Azrian]

I heard it was called "testing the fuel surge" when coming onto the main straight.

[rxsevengt]

car looked awesome in the flesh, what sort of times did you end up doing?
Was too ashamed to look haha, I know I was by far the slowest on the night because I had people lapping me before I even got to the hairpin.

The instructor did a 61 but he did say the left front shock was completely gone, which is why it felt like it was wobbling around on braking/turn in, All I felt was the car trying to fling us into the barriers though

I have absolutely no confidence in my car anymore, I'm deciding if I'm going to keep it or not ATM. I've done 55's in a rental formula ford there before and felt perfectly safe doing it, But the RX scares the shit out of me even just driving slowly around there.

I'm still :eek3: from Brockas GTR haha, Thing was mental

[Lonewolf]

left side gets the biggest workout too around there, no wonder there was no confidence!

[Turbo2.6L]

Haha cheers. Yours would have a similar sound underneath that monsterous gate noise i imagine...

I found out the hard way that you can't power through your fuck-ups when running R comps! Do not like to slide :lol:

[GTRgav]

Had a drive of Brokas 'R' last night and was very impressed with the overall package. I expect there will be some fast lap times in store from this beast.

[Tocchi]

i love the mention of "no cone bombing" at corners in the drivers briefing... will clutch kicks on the main straight be included next one? hahaha

but a massive thanks to jai, brett, tracy and the other guy (sorry forget your name) who helped dig me out last night :)

[ben351]

Surprised rad didnt run down main straight dodging cars to come and pull your from the car and offer CPR ...

[Tocchi]

its ok ben, he was busy keeping people on their phones company ;)

[HOT LAP]

but a massive thanks to jai, brett, tracy and the other guy (sorry forget your name) who helped dig me out last night :)
No Probs hope the car is OK apart from the shame of being towed out by a Holden make sure you give every thing a good clean on a hoist and get a greese gun on to all the greese nipples asap

Now just have to improve my skill! haha

Cheers for the drive of yours mate, the torque of the 2.8L is amazing.

[Jai Philp]

OMG Tocchi that incar is pure GOLD..... if you hadnt have been watching what ever it was that overtook you and trying to use his brake markers you'd have made that corner... hahahah...
