Moderators Zedman240® Posted March 18, 2011 Moderators Posted March 18, 2011 I'm sure it happens on Saturday and Sunday mornings... Quote
RB30X Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Wow what an unbelievable day. Such a long hike to and from Phillip island but totally worth it. Historic car heaven. It was great to meet Dimitri, Jason and Peter to put a face to a name. Took heaps of pics but I'll have to wait till I'm home to upload them. Quote
shanec86 Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 went out there today, saw lots of Z's couldnt really find any owners though Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted March 20, 2011 Moderators Posted March 20, 2011 I was there near my zed now and then.. Took Tim (RB30X) for a little walk around the pit area for a while then watched the racing from the display area. I had a green T-shirt on.. Quote
lightmaster240z Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Word has it that there were over 5000 body there and it was the biggest turn out they have ever had. (Not the best week end to sleep in). Dame those early starts last week. I look forward to seeing some picks form the days Regrads Bruce Quote
Agno Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Amazing day. I have never seen Philip Island pull of weather that nice either! Went out and sussed a few of the race zeds too. Anyone own the white 240Z on jellybeans (or similar)? Also, the orange metallic pearl V8 zed was off it's chops! Quote
260DET Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Group Sc at Siberia, Jason in the Fairlady and a white S30 Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted March 23, 2011 Moderators Posted March 23, 2011 I'm sure Don McKay owns the white 240Z...its an early one as well only a few chassis numbers away from mine! Quote
RB30X Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Ok here are some of my pics. Sorry if the track photos arent close up, I dont have a big zoom. There is also a lot of ITB or inlet manifold porn. Quote

RB30X Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Tim any pics of the action in the Group Sc guys? Loads. I'll post em up when I return to the sunshine (currently flooding again) state. Quote
260DET Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Seeing Datsuns at PI don't do incar, apparently here is a Mini with some of the best I have ever seen. Note the nice pass by a 1600 at 6:25. Quote

Too much to carry around for us serious racers : i would rather have the extra schooner than carry the camera..... Quote

Note the nice pass by a 1600 at 6:25. Actually I did, I bought a MiCam 508 lipstick cam with a mini dvr, the week prior,but am still trying to learn how to use it, what with my impediments and all, managed to get the last race in full, it is on a SD card, and no matter how much i try to hit the little plastic SD card into the tiny slots for the usb's on my pc with my estwing builders claw hammer, it wont go in! Quote
benny Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 your not actually trying to put the card in your usb port are you ?? If you are you need to but a reader for your card. Buy a mini/micro/standard SD to usb reader, they're only a few dollars!! Ben Quote
RB30X Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 I don't know what's funnier, jasons description of getting the card in or Benny thinking he was serious. Quote
PZG302 Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Knowing Jason, Benny is quite right to be concerned about fitting a SD card into a USB slot, in fact I'm suprised Jason didn't lose the SD card in the CD carrier!!!! Although he may use that as a drinks holder ;D Quote
260DET Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 One thinks he has to carry a camera around with him all the time the other wants to poke the camera's memory card in the wrong slot, typical Datsun race car drivers Quote

Buy a mini/micro/standard SD to usb reader, they're only a few dollars!! Ben OH NO I am so confused, my brain hurts. seriously I am not very electronic savvy and I have a severe eyesight problem, but yes they still let me race, differnet issue though it is with with very close work i am having fun with, ie pc keyboard, but I use a 22 inch monitor! I am hunting desperatley for a pair of "Loupes" ? Loupes, are what a dentist wears when he is gazing into your gaping maw as he attacks your fangs, sort of mini telescopes on a pair of glassed. Anyone got some they can let me have, yes I am getting annoying, and grumpy Quote
RB30X Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Here you go Jason.............. if you can see them. Quote
