Andrew,

gates open at wakefield at 7:30 and the track opens at 9:00. cost is $80 to put the car on the track + your Cams 2LS licence minimum, or you can purchase a wakefield license for $40, this license is good for 1 year. you will get some decent track time to get the feel for the fresh new machine.

Benny

good onya mate. not bad for a first outing in what's basically a completely different car. especially considering you're running on DOT semi slicks up against Sport Sedans! Roll cage makes a big diffeence to the car's feel, hey?

What're ya goin ta do ta increase traction?

Adjustable konis on the rear set soft-medium and some big fat 225/50/15 toyo RA1's on 8 inch rims.The way the boost comes in lower and not as hard also helps. It used to come in with a big rush making it hard to keep traction
The new roll cage has also stifened the car up heaps handles very different but in a good way just have to learn how hard I can push her.
The car that won my class was beserk a gemini with a 360rwhp Sr20 I joked with him about the only way to get it to go was with a nissan engine LOL. Most the guys where running slicks and tube frame with fibreglass bodies. I was 4-5 seconds behind him he was nearly 2 seconds in front of 2nd place. Another gemini with 360hp at the fly holden 6 injected with one of them fancy alloy heads. With another few runs I reckon I could have maybe improved around another 2 seconds I made a few mistakes. Its hard to get all the corners right with only 3 runs to see what the car does

Nice to hear you had so much fun with your new fabolous setup. We are very envious of your datsun but also very proud. We hope the best for you and the worst to non datsun lovers.
