I think Renault are the ones pulling the purse strings mate.

Erm not sure what Nissan was thinking here
Just to clarify, us spec cars DO NOT have Thier handbrake on the left hand side. It seems Nissan didn't bother to swap the position of the handbrake, really crack handed to be reaching over the centre consol. Which further supports theory of a flipped image. The red interior has nice aspects the cards and under dash arnt it. Smithys old car had deep red seats etc, that was bloody lovely. The 350s handbrake issue is probably down to two aspects, Nissan is now part of Renault. It is also a product economy building, cut corners and compromises. Thier market and base is lhd so they won't worry themselves with our awkward little country, it's far cheaper to leave the handbrake on the wrong side. My vw van is the same, it's quite obviously a lhd vechile with the steering wheel on the right. Rear visability is terrible.

:( breaking my first z32
Sadly my first ever z32 is beyond repair, the windows are missing and the rear subframe had been ripped out. The body work has also suffered. Worst thing is its orange And there's an eagle on the bonnet. I'm keeping the chrome interior but the is up for grabs.

The grey z31 belongs to Steve Elliott. He's local. Tbh it was baby blue on some black 5 spoke before he did that and it looked a lot better.

Track Car weights
Yeah I Spose so, I was trying to highlight the thought process that making an arrow or pendulum out if the car won't make it corner very well. I'm guessing the loss of the stock tailgate and glass was the mahout weight drop at the rear?

Track Car weights
Some of the weights are pretty suspect. I think you have to be carefull aswel as where you ditch the weight. These cars have quite a good bias from stock, throwing out everything upfront leaving the arse full weight is likely a mistake.

lights .?
This correct, led aren't constantly on they are pulsing. It's like a digital signal rather than analogue.

I guess what we need is an airfield and loads of cones.

JAE 2013 Pics - where are they all
They do move Pete, forward to rev their engines and maybe pop to the burger van.

Track Car weights
Yeah this is what I mean, hicas doesn't extend any confidence. I've got used to it but it can make the car easily unpredictable, causing over correction. Do we know what the weight loss is?

Club autocross
Yeah that's the one Pete, gets confusing doesn't it. Different things same name. I was hoping you would have some positive input.

Club autocross
Not sure if this is the right section, but il pretend it is. I've been thinking for a little while about this, the yanks seem quite keen on it and few clubs are turning up around the uk. For those that are unfamiliar with what autocross is, it's a times point to point race through a series of cones, usually in a flat surface. The cars usually required to be road legal and to have arrived under their own steam. So what's so good or different about it I hear you ask? Well price is the main thing. Costs are low due to it being able to be organised on a flat surface with permission, no track day costing. Lower speeds, shorter tracks and massive run offs mean that the car doesn't have to be so high spec. Equally if it goes wrong you run over a cone instead of slamming into the wall or gravel trap. Low cost and low risk, no excuse not to then really. How does this work with the club then? Well basically what in proposing is we organise a club day, damn good excuse to socialise and actually use the cars. Less McDonald's, more car enthusiast. Obviously it would be a summer idea. My two questions... Who would be interested? And more importantly how would we get the ball rolling?
