[Jacobxxx]

I'm under the impression if you're a DC member it's sweet

[drift kid]

Yeah all are welcome, last time we had a v8 cressida, 2j soarer and a 3s ke, come and have fun :D

[maxhag]

Matt/Joel, I'll be there as usual........

[sundee]

Yep all kinds welcomed , we don't descrinate here.
As long as it slides... ;)

Dates should be 2nd weekend in April ...
Will have a confirmation early next week.

[Matt]

So pumped for this, anyone who is there to have a good time is welcome.

[drift kid]

Can't wait, best vibes and good people :)

[AIROCOBRA]

I still reckon that track is ideal for a time attack session ---- especially for moderate powered --- good handling , light weight toyota's --- ( driven by old fat blokes ).

Something like this maybe ???????????????? 8|:P:DD:DD:DD

http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/dcimages/2/2/8/8/514403.jpg (http://s1104.photobucket.com/user/AE86SPRINTER/media/my%20red%20track%20car/DSC_0022_1024x768_.jpg.html)

[drift kid]

Hahaha you wish bob

[maxhag]

If Bob was allowed to do a time attack in his AE86 racecar, I'd put money on that he would beat everyone.... ;) ;)

[Matt]

Rumour has it bob can steer

[AIROCOBRA]

Kind words JO JO , but I think I would need to loose 40 plus KG to put money on me...... Although I could possibly be a good bet in any high board belly flop competition !!!!!!! :DD

And Matt , tomorrow I am doing a hill climb on old hard street tyres , so I may learn a bit more about drifting than I bargained for and if it rains , then it will have to be a full on slide attack.:peek::peek::peek:

[drift kid]

So bob? Will you be skidding at DFZERO3? ;)

[AIROCOBRA]

Only if it rains and I have spent to much money on my cars to afford a new set of sneakers :DD

[BEAMS_86]

Keen. Ill ask a few mates if there keen.

[sundee]

There are only 2 general rules, always have fun and always have respect.
Have none of the above, don't show at all.

[BEAMS_86]

^^^ was that aimed at me or just a general post lol.

[sundee]

Nah , I don't even know you...
It's a general rule, it's pretty broad, it can be broken in a heap of ways.. But it's a blanket.
That's why I like it..
I guess the only issue we had last time was guys rocking up super late Friday night, and not having "respect" for everyone else who was sleeping.

This time though, there is a cut off, and the gates will be locked.

The only other major deal breaker is Drugs.
They won't be tolerated, if its suspected, I won't even bother with the users, I'll just call the cops and tell them
They are dealing..
Alcohol is permitted, but only after 5pm when track time is over.
Drunken behaviour will get you kicked out.

See it all falls under fun and respect.

You'll have a ball, it's a great atmosphere, great crew, good times.

[drift kid]

Yeah sorry about rocking up late, really didn't mean any disrespect joel

[BEAMS_86]

oh ok haha.

Sounds like a rad weekend super keen.
if only they had a 4wd track there aswell haha.

[sundee]

They actually do... But I don't think they let anyone use it.

That right I remember now Ben, that was your mates diesel that he left rattling for god knows how long.
Haha, it's all good, just get there earlier next time ;)

It's gonna be gates shut at 2100 I'm feelin.

And open again at 0700.

[drift kid]

Yeah we'll be leaving in the morning on the Friday so we will be there before sundown ;)

[Matt]

Its prob also worth noting that "we are our own marshells" and have to abide by the rules of raleigh. Whilst its pretty epic to have 3-8 car trains running around the track, the liability insurance from raleigh doesn't permit more than 2 cars on the track at any time. And if we keep raleigh happy, they leave us alone to do our own thing. They also have a policy if you piss them off, you will not be welcome back.

Also being in the middle of no where, noise travels allot more than you realise... ie. i was laying in my tent and someone 20m away farted ( modified arse i'm sure) and it felt like it was above my head.

[drift kid]

Yeah everybody seemed to keep to the rules and have a good time at the last event

[sundee]

There were a few things I'd like to tighten up, but nothing major.
"Respecting" the marshals is another.
Tandems, only. No trains. Like matt said, their insurance doesn't cover that.

We need to cover our own ass's as well

[drift kid]

Agree'd, I'm so pumped already for this, ive got two mates deviate driving with me and anothet that's a maybe

[hollywood89]

This sounds good!

I'll have to man up and come to this one!

[nathanS]

Bob being a rally driver, wheel clearance is king..........
He must just look at low cars and shakes his head. "How the hell is that gonna drive when I cut accross the infield"....

[AIROCOBRA]

Weight transition with too much throttle at the wrong time.

What's this weight transfer .... Off camber ...... Shit .!!! You see the corner you ATTACK the bloody thing !!!

[sundee]

Hahaha can't wait for more shit talk
At DF03

[drift kid]

Oh god me too

[Matt]

We should have some better prizes this time too.

[sundee]

hahaha, did we have pizza last time?

[Matt]

No but we had some pretty epic food. Roast beef and chicken I believe. Along with muffins and other cool stuff

[drift kid]

Oh god, if my car isn't going I will be attending just for the food

[sundee]

look at him trying to pretend his roast and chicken stole the show...hahah

[meadan]

Ill be there, if I still dont have a car by then Im happy to help out and be a crash test dummy again...

[drift kid]

Haha, I dunoo, that brekky was on point

[nathanS]

[MoNsTaR]

.....yes! Lol
mill be sure to have it finished this time before I show up

bullshit, ill finish your engine, youll wait a wile, pester everyone you know to help you, convince some poor bastard (me) in the last week to help you, then youll spend of of DF03 trying to get it to start.

[drift kid]

[nathanS]

[maxhag]

[Matt]

[givemesideways]

I might have to rent one Matt. Dunno if ill have mine ready.

[AIROCOBRA]

By any chance Matt would you have a LS1 powered Cressedia to hire out--- I think that would be able to support my bulk and allow me to go a bit sideways !!!!!!!!!!!:bones::bones::bones::bones:

[drift kid]

Hahaha, now now bob, will you be driving by any chance or photographing again?

[Matt]

No but I do have a 1jz cressida and time to make it manual.

Photography wise, i'll have my camera, bob will have his and i'm sure a few others will have theirs.

[AIROCOBRA]

LS1 --- 1JZ ---1UZ NOT FUSSY !!!!!

Not sure about the driving , might bring my seat , a harness , helmet --- and a box of laxative powder. ( you look a bit parched would you like a drink !!!!!!!!!!! , you have been warned ).:DD:DD:DD:DD:DD:DD:DD

[drift kid]

Hahaha

Yeah, bring your seat, cause you aint sitting in mine after you've shit yourself......

[AIROCOBRA]

Jo , I think you may have missed my intent on this one ------ see I offer the persons who's car I want to drive ( usually the best car ) a drink ( laced with poo powder ) . Then after they have quenched their thirst and made a B line to the thunder box , I --- that is ME ---- take their car for a wee drive ( pune intented ) .

SO JO --- HOW ABOUT BOURDEN AND COKE ? :P

[maxhag]

WTF BOB!!!!!!!!!!

[AIROCOBRA]

So that's your vision of me --JO , you and I really have to talk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Neither of those colors are me --- more of a blood red person really .>|

[sundee]

Hahah something they put in that's Canberra water...

[AIROCOBRA]

Joel , not sure about the water , you could be right ----- but I personally don't drink much of it ( found a few other things I seem to like to drink ).
But I get your point --- we are a strange lot , us Canberran's , I think we live a very sheltered life ( under the umbrella of politics and all the stuff ) Oh !!!!! and we don't get out much !!!!!!! It's just AE86's & Corolla's , a little bit of sleep ,drink and food and then we do it all over again !!!!!!!! we are so predictable.

Next week I will be covering the meaning of life for Holden owners ( a very short essay ) ---- and do most 86 owners have a permanent hard on , or are they just genuinely very pleasure to see you ???????????

[maxhag]

Does anyone at all know what Bob just said?

I have no idea if its even english.....

[Sprinter Freak]

sweet, good to see DF03 is happening :) should be down for this, have a bit of work to do before hand tho (SR20 conversion lol).

[drift kid]

I'm with you jojo, no idea

[sundee]

I think Jojo is denying a bit more then he actually knows ;)

[maxhag]

^^^ I know nothing..... Just a dumb mechanic......

[drift kid]

So will there be big entry comps and such happening again? I actually forgot last time and didn't end up doing any D1GP driving due to forgetfulness..
Lol

[Matt]

Yeah the last couple of hours on the first day will be dedicated to the comp.

By the time the last day comes around usually everyone is out of tyres or diffs / axles

[drift kid]

Yeah sounds sick, will we we told when it's happening and whatnot?

[Matt]

Registrations will open this weekend, stay tuned.

Date is locked in for the 26th - 27th April 2014

[drift kid]

Woot woot!

[jakel]

I should actually have a car ready for this one! Will either be a v6 commodore powered T18 or a supercharged 1UZ powered T18 haha. Depends which gets finished first probably the v6 one because it will hopefully be registered unlike the v8 haha.

[DRIFT3R]

I live in coffs an wouldn't mind coming along to meet people and talk cars and learn stuff from peeps that have way more knowledge and experience with these cars than myself :) I have a ke70 in the process of building still regoed so will bring it along and watch if that's ok???

[Matt]

Yep the more the merrier. If anyone can assist with marshalling please let me know

[Myles]

Matt, i might be able to help with the marshaling since i dont think my car will be ready in time

[nathanS]

Registrations open yet?

[Deeken]

Schweet. May actually get to meet some corolla guys, hope I will get a spot to drive my bogan-5.7L corolla there.. Will also be cammed by then too lol.

How long does the event take to sell out? just tossing up to pay my rego on my 4wd or entry to DFZ3 this week. damn qld matsuri put a fair old dint in my wallet so trying to catch up hehe.

[drift kid]

Well last time it was nearly cancelled due to low numbers, but it is getting bigger so it's hard to say..

[Matt]

We have a mysterious thread subscription issue that made everyone aware of DF Zero3. Sorry for the spam guys, i'll be a bit less creative next time.

[drift kid]

Haha "mysterious"

[nathanS]

Yeah I'm getting database error messages when I'm trying to register...I'll try again later

[Matt]

[sundee]

[nathanS]

All sorted :-P

OHHHHH YEAHHHHHH

[jakel]

[Myles]

Sent you a pm about registration Matt

[Matt]

Sold another 10 of the 30 spots this weekend.

[Myles]

Did you get my pm about the registration Matt!??

[Matt]

Yeah mate , I'll get back to you once I'm happy with how the car runs.

Specs are 16v bigport, 2 1/4 " exhaust and shockworks coilovers.

[EAT-58S]

How much is it to run a car for the week end. N How many spots left for the track?

[Matt]

$250 for the entire weekend. That includes food.

[Myles]

Sounds awesome Matt! Just dont want to miss out on a spot haha :)

[drft86]

Does the "no external wastegate and screamer pipe" apply if it passes the noise test??

[Matt]

If passes the test register, we just say no screamer cos rarely do they pass

[drft86]

Ok cheers. I'm sure I can make it happen.
I'm keen. How do I sign myself up? Need to pay deposit or full amount now?

[Matt]

Full amount is preferred but pm me and we can organise something.

[Sprinter Freak]

Just registered and paid, keen for a sick week!

[drift kid]

Looks to be good numbers this time :)

[Matt]

It should sell out in the next week or so :)

[180onTapp]

Ok,
I'm back on here, I'll change my email alert back to 'flood inbox so it is unusable'.

I've read up on the latest (13 pages already! good job). Bob, I have a confused mental absence after reading your post.

Call me the analyzer, but....
1st page states:
Noise restrictions
94.5 Dba @ 10m @ 6000rpm

Rego form states:
DB Noise restrictions are at 94.5db @ 7m

'Onsite Camping from Friday -> Sunday Night', is the intent to include, camping there Sunday night to Monday morning?
Is dinner on Friday night a cash payment?


Trent you coming this time? Maybe you can give Bob a few pointers for his dirt work? (<<cheap shot, although we all had a laugh at the dust cloud when the gokarts went out).

Let's see if we can manage 'no' scratched rims from changing tyres this time....Buckling rims on ripple strips or track edges doesn't count.

I am super keen, and pumped my bro will be there this time too (he is also bringing his gf).

[drift kid]

I'll get my mates onto it asap then matt

[MoNsTaR]

just registered and payed!
IM SO FUCKING KEEEEEEEEEEEEEN

[180onTapp]

Just registered and paid, keen for a sick week!

+1.

[Garth]

Matt did you subscribe me to this thread? :DD

[Matt]

No the script I ran did, though if you had a running car it may have been more useful

[Garth]

Aww, now you're just being plain mean :F:

[sundee]

Does the "no external wastegate and screamer pipe" apply if it passes the noise test??

Just a word of advice on this one... No screamers will past the noise test.
You can try, BUT please note - if you do try and you don't pass the test, your car wont be allowed on the track and unfortunately there will be no refunds.
So just understand this is the risk you will be taking.

Just need to make this very clear.

[sundee]

Ok,
I'm back on here, I'll change my email alert back to 'flood inbox so it is unusable'.

I've read up on the latest (13 pages already! good job). Bob, I have a confused mental absence after reading your post.

Call me the analyzer, but....
1st page states:
Noise restrictions
94.5 Dba @ 10m @ 6000rpm

Rego form states:
DB Noise restrictions are at 94.5db @ 7m

This one is correct

Noise restrictions
94.5 Dba @ 10m @ 6000rpm


Onsite Camping from Friday -> Sunday Night', is the intent to include, camping there Sunday night to Monday morning?
Is dinner on Friday night a cash payment?

Camping Friday night is not included in the $250.
Friday night camping is $15 which included dinner.
Meals for friday will only be available if you are there before 8pm.
Camping sunday night is available if required. (no additional charge)

No worries. Will make sure i've tested it a few times before hand.

[drift kid]

Good thinking, matt and joel, will we be getting scruiteneered this time?

[drft86]

Registered and paid.
Looking forward to it

Yeah, Screamer will be too loud...... Dont forget it's in a valley too, and certain sound pitches echo alot there.....

[Jacobxxx]

Dis be full I imagine

[drift kid]

Nah still a few spots, come and have great time yes!

[Matt]

A couple of regos have failed ill pm you guys

[sundee]

Scruitenering will be a lot more thorougher this time.

Check the 1st page for mandatory requirements.

We had a few guys with dodgee battery setups last time.
And Fire extinguishers are required in every vehicle now.

[sundee]

Maybe Mr Mez might be able to do some of his epic coverage for us next year ;)

Ive said all i need to say.. in the end anyone running a screamer is taking a risk.
measurements are done with a top notch DB meter...its very accurate, but yes you need to take into account the test environment, and this, 9/10 times wont match or replicate the environment at raleigh.

[drft86]

What db reading do you recommend achieving before hand?
Sounds like it may have to be quite low if it's being tested in an echoey environment.

[Matt]

ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!!!!!!!

[DRF86]

I invited some friends, spots went quick. So keen!

[driftke70]

I paid before so should be sweet.

I will try and test my car before hand but I imagine it should be ok, my exhaust will hopefully angle away from the db meter...

[v-tec]

I just paid as well, just "Grant Scott" in the description. Cannot wait to sandwich Jason's beautiful 86 between mine and beally's

[driftke70]

2LT GANGSTER SQUAD

Trent you coming this time? Maybe you can give Bob a few pointers for his dirt work? (<<cheap shot, although we all had a laugh at the dust cloud when the gokarts went out).

Let's see if we can manage 'no' scratched rims from changing tyres this time....Buckling rims on ripple strips or track edges doesn't count.

I am super keen, and pumped my bro will be there this time too (he is also bringing his gf).


Lisa and I r also super keen!!! hoping i can get 4 wheels in my 180.

[quicshifter]

Also Matt, we have paid using user name and first names

[sundee]

It's tested on a concrete slab approx 20m away from a huge metal shed, it's in a vally surrounded by hills and huge gum trees.

At a guess, if you can measure it in an industrial area and get around 90 - 92dba
You should be right..

Stoked to see a huge turnout from the DC crew!
Totally pumped!

[MoNsTaR]

ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!!!!!!!

holy shit!!!! that was quick

[driftke70]

t for turbo j face

[Matt]

Ill sort through the payments next week and you will get a confirmation email you have paid.

Stoked you guys are behind this and the one after this will be for October 2014.

[jakel]

What is the go with rust in a car? The car I'm planning on bringing isn't bad but if it isn't done the backup has a little in it nothing structural though.

[Matt]

Common sense rules apply... If it isn't solid structurally you wouldn't put it on the track.

Also 10 payments received already :) Lots of rego's were received last night. If you still want to come, i've added another option Standby track day, register with that and if a spot comes up, I'll offer it to you.

[jakel]

Thought so, most of it was just surface rust on one, and the other is nothing structural.

[maxhag]

^^^ If Motorfix can do it Jake, so can you :P

[jakel]

Oh god no thanks. Or I could put a motorfix sticker on it and increase the value by $1000000 haha

[Myles]

Just paid! so keen :) Now just to find a AE86 rolling shell lol

[MeZ Prod]

Maybe Mr Mez might be able to do some of his epic coverage for us next year ;)

I am driving :). I wish i could do both haha.

[Matt]

I'll have a few go-pro's there this year with cards in them to capture the weekend. Looking forward to it guys!

A few confirmation of payment emails have gone out. I have 6 others who didn't use your DC username as a reference so I've got to go digging for who you are. There are also only 28 spots gone as a few people had issues registering and took up a couple of spots instead of 1.

Hopefully by our next event in October you will be able to pay with keycard / credit details at the time of registration.

Also, have noticed a few people have emergency contacts listed of people who will be going there, i'll pm you guys to get alternative details. Having struggled the past 2 times to get numbers, this makes me happy to see it fill so quickly.

[drift kid]

Sounds gooooddd, I'll pm you about mine

[MeZ Prod]

I will bring my cameras out and hopefully anyone thats having a meander can have a shoot and i will try grab everyones footage from the weekend and make a clip?

Haven't stopped doing this since i registered.

I saw all the activity in the thread and thought fuck i might enter for this november/december trackday.... :unseen:

[Matt]

You obviously haven't been to our events before... These are hard enough to run and that's why we start then so far out due to distance ppl have to travel and the lack of numbers we have had last time

[maxhag]

Blair,
Making a booking at Raleigh requires such planning..... Being such a rad track, Its booked out most of the year.

Joel and Matt put in much effort to make this event one of the best, and if it needs 6 months planning, then so be it......


Since the event is " FUCKING AGES AWAY", you have plenty of time to get yourself sorted for the trip up ;)

[blair]

Just registered and paid. A mate just did the same...

3 spots left! :hehe:

yolo etc.?

[maxhag]

Haha, shit yeah man!

Shockworks have done a coilover set already for LS1 into ke.

[Deeken]

[Matt]

Boys will be boys eh...

Also prob worth mentioning is that if you are bringing a mate / gf / kids etc.

Please register them so we cater for the food and have to pay raleigh for the camping as well. There is now a boom gate at the top of the track and they'll be checking numbers as you come through.

I want the numbers I tell them to match with the actual numbers.

[sundee]

if your name is not on the list you will be charged by raleigh at the gate and you will not be included in the catering.
There will also be no spots for drivers "rocking up on the day"

[sundee]

[Matt]

Blair you sound bitter? Is there an issue?

[Matt]

Have an offer to buy tyres in bulk and have them delivered to the track. I haven't investigated yet as to what brands are available, but post here the size, preferred brand you are after and I'll get back to you with some pricing.

The larger the order for tyres the cheaper they will be.

I'm thinking of writing up a script thingy that will let you put a link to your build thread + effectively have a drivers profiles where you can show a pic of your car etc and describe what is done to it.

Once the day is done, i'll also upload pics where you can go to the events page and see all the pics that you are "tagged" in as such.

IF your name is not on the list it means I haven't marked you off as paid.

Last chance to pay up or your spot will be offered up to someone else.

[maxhag]

Looks like a good field of AE86's this event........
