Thanks Troy,I would Love to come mate but I gots no licence atm...
Yeah I'm south of Surfers :)
I just looked it all up, I don't see anywhere about needing a license to drive, all you gotta do is get to Oxenford and back, have enough to cover the fee (about $73 for two sessions) and I can do the rest for you.
By the way I had a look on the Queensland Raceway website, I can't see when or how much to take my car on, where am I looking? Let me know.
And for goodness sake, all them pictures you uploaded! Every time I load this thread... Just thank goodness I'm not on dial-up anymore!
Ahaha,yeah,I love pics! :)
I'm gonna have to pass this time on the karts,as keen as I am,I've got no funds atm...thanks heaps aye!
Jeff@Trackattack organises the events,just click on track days and register for an event,it's that easy! -

Also they do practice sessions @ QR sometimes on a saturday morning.It's great cause U can just stay out there for 4 hours if ya want! (like I did :) )
Ah I see, it looks expensive... plus the fact it'll be my own car I'm driving... But it would be fun.
Gimme a few months to save up and let me know which one we're going to do. ;) I'm keen :honda:
Yeah sounds good Troy! I nwont be ready until april anyways cause no licence :)
It's $120 for the event,then ya need a licence which is $20 for the day or $55 for the year,so with petrol and food it's $220.
Well worth it but.
damn that's cheap its like $190+ for the track here and $50 for the license

Wow, youve certainly done a fair few modifications to this beast. All it needs now is kswap :D
haha,nah,I could do a hell of a lot more with 15k than make my car go faster..it goes fast enough for me.
Both L + R driveshafts are buggered.Where the inner and out part of the driveshafts meets at the CV joint,THAT is buggered,worn out/there's a lot of freeplay.
So both will be replaced wednesday.$165 ea + $120 install = $450.
It makes sense they are rooted cause that's the point where it takes all the punishment.I have been driving my car hard for 4 years.So it took a while really :)
Can't wait to get the new/reconditioned ones in there,I reckon I had a couple of niggling problems that stemed from there.Like a knocking that comes when the auto changes gears.
Will report the changes :)
I am getting the H Brace and Blue Illuminating dails in a week and will post pics.
I've decided to just go to Honda to get the Front LCA bushes put in.They will charge $160-$200.Rip off I know but ya need a special tool..
Going racing at Lakeside for the 1st time Thursday Feb 18 8am.Mixing it up with the mid week crew.Lots of fast cars but more a variance in speed than the weekend crew.
If I have time I wanna make a front splitter beforehand.
Psyched for the track!!!!!!!!!! :)
Back on the Farm!
Check out how long the grass is now!
