I'll be away on the 17th, but post up details next time you need numbers.

Haven't been to Lakeside in years and the mummy wagon needs a run.

This one is ~160 for half day, +licence. Let me know if you want to come and il check with numbers, as it is 10cars max for our slot and the other members are looking for replacements as well. And the people might not drop out anyway.. It's wierd as the thread isn't as updated as often as it should be and this is creeping closer and closer.

i have done a few happy laps at LS but personally i will never do sprints there. the rails are too close at places.

need a manual car to do sprints again. the 86 can't come soon enough!!

Nardi - You need a manual car and I need a car with more than 30kw hahaha.
It was crap coming from 200+kw into the mira....

next time i go to Japan (probably mid 2013), i'll surely drop into a Toyota dealer listed on the page to check them out.

LOL! yeah, my bad. I forgot to add that the Merch store opens 7th April. But you take a quick glance of what they have from the Ustream video @ 25:38 to 27:00.

there are T-Shirts, collared T-Shirts, bags, shoes, watches, "86" push bike, Wallet, Sunglasses, brief cases...etc.


The thing is i don't know if we will get any of that here, probably just order it from Japan or something.

i think this is a Toyota.

there have been a few mules and test cars in Australia. Subaru showed a BRZ at the Imprezza launched last week and apparently that particular BRZ is scheduled for crash test soon.
