For the record I reckon you did really well Stuart, I checked out the results last night and was pretty impressed.
Was on the day anyway, even with your trye problems the first 2 runs you had, keeping up with the MX5 and bettering the HQ RACE CAR's time by around a second I thought was good, and the stock suspension did make for some great shots, Ride that riple strip.
Check out the results on the QR website, for those interested they were running the sprint track.
yeh, good to see you're getting the suspension overhauled... it definitely needs it if you're going to be doing track days fairly often ... You should also look into upgraded Front & Rear sway bars, F & R Droplinks, F & R Strut Braces, Lower F & lower Rear Strut braces (if you want to be anal about it) Polyurethane Bushes, Pillowball Strut Top mounts ... Whiteline is good for all those...
You also may as well get all the boots replaced on steering / suspension parts & get some bigger brake discs & new brake pads fitted while everything is off the car to fit the suspension...
As I'm figuring this out myself, it seems it depends on the licence. The AASA licence is $55 a year.
For example go the AASA licence for QR but as far as I know the only other open track around here is at Warwick which only has club days no open track days like the SAS are.
