260DET

They can put me anywhere they like Matt, as long as I get a run.

Tyres, nothing in the sup regs about them. Seeing that the Federals are stuffed I'm getting a set of Hoosier R6's, better priced and more suitable sizes than most alternatives. Just hope there is no hidden rule somewhere that bans them for a road registered half cage car

I'm still up for sharing a garage.

Yay, my entry has been accepted so better get some tyres and stuff, booked in at the Koala Park Resort, thanks Dave. Really looking forward to this, hoping to do some sort of respectable time to make amends for the last debacle.

All will be revealed in due course, for the moment it's confidential out of respect for someone. It is good news for the Z motorsport community though, fortunately there are people willing and able to take a punt on building something different. But the main thing is that I am a proper racer now, none of this solo rubbish, raced the local kids on my pushbike and won. Where can I go to boast about that

I'm quoting this simply to preserve it from editing later on. 'He' refers to me.

Sold I believe to a racer in Q.

This sequential goodness is sooo tempting but so is running at PI and Bathurst plus doing a few other things. My excuse, nothing to bolt to a VG which only an idiot would think of doing anyway

So it works, yay, happy with the result?

Some high spec stub axles here http://www.chequeredflagracing.net/Datsun.html

Sounds like the Z Car Club Q is for you 74zzz, they organise some very good runs, have meetings plus there are heaps of Zeds involved in motorsport http://www.zcarclubq.org.au/contact.html

Geez, I'm agreeing with Jason for once.

Yeh, can't mess around with your health Dave, hope the cutting goes OK. They do take a while to heal particularly where there is a lot of normal muscle movement.

Put me down to share a garage Dave, definitely a definite. How do we organise and pay for that? PS In real life I don't bite.

Really looking forward to this, PI is such a mind blowing circuit. The first and only time I'm like, where are the damm apexes, track was so wide that you are spoilt for space, you sort of get lost in space if that makes sense. I mean Lakeside is such a contrast, both it and PI share the fastest circuit in Ozstralya title but there the similarities end yet there is a commonality. Lakeside is tight and potentially destructive and bloody fast and always there, just out the window. PI is open and inviting yet bloody fast and doesn't crowd you yet it's potential for destruction is there too, lurking. And that is the challenge. To arrive, drive, survive and leave happy.

No one else is coming from Q that I know of Dave, two days is good and I'm sure that the weather will be kind to us visitors. Maybe

Have put my entry in for the 280ZXT in the road registered class just to have another go at this great circuit after the best forgotten Nationals effort. Nominated 2 minutes as a lap time, no chance of winning anything, just in it for the fun and hopefully some satisfaction. Look forward to meeting any other Zedsters who will be there too. Any suggestions for trailer friendy accommodation? What's the caravan park like?

Good work, it's scrubbed up well.

Yeh, pull it to bits so we can get more jealous

Nice, very nice, good to see some S130 love too. Winnah

Pity it has to be sold, did very well the few times you did track it :-\ For anyone who is interested in a track car in Q there are plenty of events to run it in competitively, does not need to be log booked.

Good man of action d3, cool project

Bathurst Easter 2014?

Interesting tips Jason, luckily I got a good deal in Bathurst so staying there makes sense. New England highway is crap, is that you are saying? I may go down via the Pacific, the Newell was a constant up and down rock 'n roll drive at Easter, hardly any cars on it but trucks one after the other.

Well done to those who finished, tough gig.
