remember if you are coming to get a Helmet that complies with current AUS Standards. i nearly forgot..

my car is still still in bits atm but if i receive a new tailshaft before the day it will be fun as.

bummer Sheel.. Should be a grouse day.

In regards to the helmet, If you are actually going to purchase a lid, get an open face job. So much better than the full face moto ones most people run. They cook your brain, and its hard to drive in one.

not a big drama man. Pump some sika 227 into it and leave it over night. Easy fix, better than a new one. 5 mins.

x2.

We did this to a turbo gem probably putting out more than your Gemi.

As far as I know it's still cracking along :wink:

Were you going to tow it up or drive it?

If your going to tow it up you will have no dramas ;)

Thinking of going to Winton on Sunday 11th of december to participate in the fun day/cruising around the track.

ill be going up depending on if i can get my manual conversion done and my car up to scratch by that week. shouldnt be too much of an issue.

your car will need to pass scrutineering (good brakes, good tyres, no leaks) and not be louder than 95db

OPEN TO ALL MAKES OF CARS

this is the link:
http://www.wintonraceway.com.au/drive/fun-days

would anyone else be interested in coming up?

its pretty cheap at $35pp for the day and $35pp for each passenger that goes on the track. in 25 minute sessions. 25 minutes alone session then 25 mins with passenger and so on.

helmets and fireproof clothing must be worn.

Heres the link for FAQS:

http://www.wintonraceway.com.au/wp-cont ... stions.pdf

looks to be a good time!

Has any one done this before??

Cheers
James
hey guys,

this is happening again next saturday. the 28th of jan.

i definetly should have listened to you jonno and nimbus, i put sika 227 in there a few weeks ago and it worked excellent, and now ive bent the torque tube itself... :oops:

i have another one coming from Elky this week and will have it in on the weekend.. ive got all of next week off work so ill be able to do all the work that it needs before next saturday.
