[Rantopotamus]

Any car yeah? or just 4's and rotarys?

[FranZ]

Any car is welcome!

[Brockas]

Timing?

[jaybee]

just out of curiousity, how often do barbs track days like this come around? if its not very often i might try and make the date i think.

[Sfidz]

were do you get CAMS L2S Licence from and how much is it?
Do you need both of the licences for the day?
Anddd, what is the difference between CAMS L2S Licence, CAMS L1S Licence?

Cheers :)

[Spektor]

You can get a CAMS L2S License from CAMS or some CAMS Affiliated clubs. But you must be a member of a CAMS Affiliated club either way. AFARCC is CAMS Affiliated so that's fairly easy to get sorted. 12month license, I think is $88

The L2S is a standard Level 2 Speed 12month License. The L1S is a single event Speed license. You can only use one L1S per 12months (If I recall correctly). It's just there for people to get a taste of motorsport.

[Butcher]

Whats a L1 worth and can it be upgraded (ie pay the difference) to a L2 after it is used if keen to do more?

[poombah]

L1 is a single use licence (~$30) - L2S is $100 and lasts for 12 months and covers any CAMS or AASA event.

[poombah]

Timing?

No Timing - as this increases the permit cost SIGNIFICANTLY as it is then classed as a competition event.

That said there is nothing stopping you from having a device in your vehicle to monitor your own progress. (Performance Box, Drift Box, Mobile phone with GPS timing app).

[poombah]

Any car yeah? or just 4's and rotarys?

All Makes and Models are welcome. Our Track days have always been a mixture of the Japland specials - GTR's Evo's WRX's Supra's etc and local variety XR6 / XR8/ SS / HSV / FPV .. whatever you like.

The day is pretty laid back and you get HEAPS of track time, BBQ lunch included and you get to have a yarn with like minded enthusiasts.

[tinto]

Had a great day today. Thanks to AFARCC for organising it.
Got some cool footage that I'll edit down a little then youtube it.

[FranZ]

Thanks to all that came and made it an enjoyable day. We welcome any feedback good or bad, so please let us know. If you prefer to keep it quiet/confidential, email your thoughts to committee@allfours.org.au

Thanks :)

[poombah]

poor guy! what happened? did he lose it out of the last corner and over correct?

had a bit of oversteering exiting ford.. then what looked like some good old lift off over steering followed by tank slappo.

main thing is he luckily walked away... cars are repairable/replaceable... people arent.

[SlamDunk]

any idea how bad the white evo MR is russ?

[c.rusli]

the 8mr with voltex is fine.

Only side skirt coming loose and radiator hose popped out.

But will see more if anything els happen to the engine or water pump.

Owner told me it wast over haeating.
We shall see

[dattoman]

I liked the vid tinto
Not sure what sort of car you have.... but you do seem to coast alot rather than come in hard on the brakes

I find lifting off the throttle early and not braking hard enough gives me too much time to second guess myself
I worry I'm not in the right spot on the track to be setup for fast exit on the corner
Once I learned to brake alot later I actually had less time to think and make less mistakes
Good vid though.... I should have come up to watch but that just sets the bug nibbling and makes me want to drive... lol

[DEVIIINE]

any idea how bad the white evo MR is russ?

Intercooler piping hose came off...possible blown gasket...i will find out next week...

[RK 86 WA]

I have plenty of pics, however I need to finish 'aquiring' CS5 Lol.

Photos will be avail, in a few days me thinks.

[tinto]

That sounds about right - I was overly conscious of baking my car (S15 200SX) and am still coming to grips with the FWD -> RWD switch, so wanted to coast a bit in some places, even on the warmup laps. Once that is sorted (my water temps were hitting 120) I'll be a bit more aggressive on the pedals.

Thanks for the feedback - I've got plenty of room to improve :)
My GPS clocked a 1.09.55 on the long track, with most full laps around 1.10/1.12. It seems quite accurate as in the afternoon we switched to short track and my times were similar to No Limits nights.

I stuck the same camera on the side of my helmet to get another perspective.
You can see the EVO looming at about 1:50 (look in the rear mirrors), then he rips past over the top of the hill - those things can move.
I've got 4x4 trained thumbs that won't tuck under the wheel.. It is a very hard habit to break!

the skyline, antilag member?

[lukits01]

That was a good day! totally exhausted.
Thanks to the organisers and to some extent, the tow truck that helped out a few people ahaha
I was half expecting my gearbox to blow yesterday, but it kept crunching away all day haha

what camera is that, tinto? GoPro HD?

[c.rusli]

yay! Photos please..

not bad timing tinto.
1st time out
Im in 1:12:00 long and 1:00:67 short the slowest evo on the straight. Evry one pukling aqay so fast lol

[tinto]

what camera is that, tinto? GoPro HD?

Yep, GoPro HD Hero (motorsports pack).
Looks amazing on the TV, not so much on Youtube :)

Did I see you in South Perth (BP) on Friday Night @ the air pump?
Red Civic Type R? Was going to say hello, but I think you were wrapping up as I was coming back to my car.

Your car sounds (and goes) amazing on the track - what RPM are you hitting?

ahh, yea I was at BP South Perth, I think I remember, was it the S15?
wow, the difference between normal goPro and HD is night and day!
I have the older GoPro, will be posting some vids later. Car revs to 8600 :werd: but hardly ever go that far, doesn't really make power.

[DJDINO]

Had a great day, thanks to all the organisers etc, EVO was going well, did that many laps I was stuffed at the end of the day.

Had a big spin myself coming up the hill out of the esses, stopped before the tyres so no damage, feel for the Skyline driver as it's part of pushing it, just unlucky.

yeah using the circuit tool.

My circuit outline isn't correct :S i use google earth to trace the map and after doing some reading it looks like that sometimes when u trace using google earth it isn't 100% correct

can't seem to find that feature on Circuit Tools. Probably not implemented yet then :(

if you download the driftbox tool or the performance box tool, i found you can adjust the track (just right click on the map it has the align opionion)

here is what it looks like, still seems slighty off (might need to redo the track make it wider)

That looks fairly unhappy

If he has a good insurance company and can attest to that being driver training since it wasn't a timed event
They may fix it (Its happened before with broken Commodores)

[mitchy]

ouch... that would be a write off i'd imagine.. bent pillars and roof.

[poombah]

any idea how bad the white evo MR is russ?

if it was Nyi Nyi's one that went home on the flat bed that thing sounded like a steam train.

[jonn]

I'm pretty sure that was on the in lap as well. Plenty of cars left on the flat beds that day.

[Godzilla]

Thats looks painfull.... never seen anything like that happen there, usualy people just spin in to the infield there...

Wow - lucky to walk away

Yeh, Mikey.

[DEVIIINE]

yeh, i couldn't send it to the workshop that day so i took it back home and all the neighbors came out to look when i started the car again to put it in my garage...anyway, it was a good event russ, looking forward for the next one...

[RK 86 WA]

Cs5 'aquired'

Pics finally resized tonight :)

[GTRgav]

Plenty of cars left on the flat beds that day.

Mine being one of them. Pretty sure I've lunched the gearbox input shaft as a minimum. Will know more when I get the gearbox out this week.

BTW - can't get hold of Gerrin at the moment - is he still crook??

[skidkid]

So does anybody have bulk pics of the day?

[Brockas]

Ahhh no good :(

How did you do that?

[FranZ]

I know his leg hurts, he normally doesnt get outta bed til about lunchtime! Keep trying him Gav!

[GTRgav]

Ahhh no good :(

How did you do that?

It wasn't the famous "Brockenbank Manouver" (AKA slam into second at peak engine torque) if that's what your asking:)

Was applying power in 3rd into corner 1 on the second lap. I think it's just the laws of physics catching up with the years of abuse the gearbox has seen.

[siamak]

Anyone know who the guy is with the R33? Can someone PM him me his number.

Mr Beer I presume youve told the wife that the replacement part for a Nissan gearbox is made by holinger?
