16th Nov ok for me too.

I was going to do the hillclimb but this will be my one and only chance to travel Oran Park before it closes. So too for many others. Let's make it happen. I'm in

 

[BenzBoy]

Brilliant - count me in. Maybe Des could come over too and cut his teeth on a mainland track? What do you reckon Des?

Edit - we may even get a gas-powered Turbo R there to see what it can do....

Ian, mate..... you know you wanna make the trek for this!!

Styria, Mercules?? (Mercules, if you want, you're more than welcome to list up as a 2nd driver of my beast!! No sh!t!!)

Woaw.. this is beggining to sound seriously interesting

I might promote it on the radio programme as The World on Wheels' Arrive and Drive

Now I'll really be able to see how good Styria's slotted rotors are

(a set of 4 went on my car recently)

120miles plus

 

[SELfor50]

Are the straights as long as Sandown Michel??

I'll be doin' 200km's through the corners, where you goin' straights?!

 

[oscar]

Cam, time to start memorising the track

 

[SELfor50]

Hahaha word. 50secs i'm guessing is a pretty crazy time!
The same dude in his 2001 corvette knocked out a 1m10 at wakefield.. bout 8-9secs quicker than me.. However, a mate of mine in a Nissan silvia s15 banged out a 1m09.. which is pretty quick.

Oran Park looks like a very 'hilly' track though!!! Lots of off-camber corners.... Gonna have to be carefull out there. Gonna weld the diff definitely before we hit it!!

 

[BenzBoy]

I'm thinking 20 minutes 30 to get around that in the PII. And then a massage.
Maybe I had better take the SII.

My best lap of Silverstone was a 1 minute 50something second, as a passenger in a Pro-Sport 3000. And it was damp.
Huge fun.
I once did a 23+ minute lap around Silverstone G.P. circuit.
Yep, over 23 minutes, but it was on foot, running laps for a charity event.
It is a bloody long way round a 5km race track!

Oops, looks like 16th might be a problem here at GreaseMonkey House.
Every other Sunday in November booked for car stuff and I did promise SWMBO a family visit up the coast.
And the in-laws in Sydney.
Negotiations and calender fiddling did not acheive much last night.
