Great day , well done to Bart , Yowdy , Derk and co. with organising it and all.
Cheers to Keith for the passenger lap ;) Some power out of that car (Pity I couldn't get the helmet off and get out of the bleedin' car :rolleyes::p)
Yowdy's car is a serious smoke machine along with the black , white and blue R33.
Nick180sx - serious pilot - sound of the car didn't help my hangover though :o
Carbo - My mate loved the taxi sign haha.
Mick Skyline - Car looked well with the new dash and you were going well out there too.
Have about 150 pics on the camera (was too tired from last night to take anymore :() Will put them up in the pictures section once I get them on Photobucket. Some aren't the best from smoke and the sun but I'll throw them up anyway.
Plenty of brilliant drivers there :D
Really enjoyed the day and will defo be back again !!
had a great day again, lost me exhaust on the very first run this morning,
dry weather means alot of fun for me, i had grip at the rear:D,
i dont mean to sound like a bollox but the que time didn't speed up at all today,
even tough it was a fine day, ive been there the three days it was on and i thought the first day was the best day, 20 cars and plenty of track time, fuck all waiting, thats just my two sence worth, i went home with the same set of tyres i came with also, so happy days,
Had a good day myself. Got on farely well at the start but once i put the 225s on the back i had no grip atal. May play with the pressure a bit more. Car went well do. Couldnt have asked for beter weather. Well ran, fare lay to the lads. Dont really like the que but sure its the same for everyone.
Ye that was me :o..... Can definitely only get better from there!! Change of car is definitely on the cards but happy just to get first day under my belt! Loved watchin Carbo in the carlton haha some rig!!Quote:

Two weeks ago was my first day out and it was fairly hit and miss, bad weather and being unfamiliar with the car led to spin and understeer city, today I really got the hang of it and loved every minute of it!
The car still needs a bit of work, and my front tires gave up near the end but I was getting more and more confident as it went (proven by my battle scars on the rear left bumper:D)
Myself and Will C rolled down today, all discs on the window, swapped on some rubber and went hell for leather, thats what I reckon its all about and a big thanks to Bart for giving us somewhere to do it!
Cheers to Mikey Fitz for a few more pointers!
I'm in love with my car, Wes in WKD is a genius, hasn't put a foot wrong on track or on the road!:)
And the standard of ye lads down there is off the wall, its savage watchin everyone getting much better at each event and the atmosphere is so chilled for us beginners!
Any pics of my blue PS13 with illuminous green wheels send em my way!
Roll on two weeks............sorry, rant over!:D

Just one complaint, lads speedin back into the pits. That shit has to stop, there was a good few kids around and as this gets bigger the crowds will too.
Keep it in mind for the next day lads.....
reading this has made me pick up the phone and order new brake set up and clutch :D
Damn your good reviews lads haha.
It was a savage day to have it had good crack out there and a few nice runs but just could nt get the hang of the 3 corner car kept spinnging out when i hit the drain:mad:other than that had a savage day fair play to bart for all the org:cool:
Great day! Fair play to Bart and the lads for organising it, its a cool and relaxed atmosphere up there and the track was well laid out for either someone wanting to have fun, learn or hone their skills as you could take an inside line or run the containers.
Thanks to Dave Manning for the first spin, Dave Egan for the spin in his mint S13, Nicolas for the spin in the monster, nice to see a car I brought in being turned into that! Thanks to Yowdy for showing me the merits of a 1J again and the offer for the spin in the car, Swannie for making me think we were going to hit the containers and of course Jules for letting me drive the S14 for a few laps. Ill be back there again, hopefully next time with something to test ;)
