So ahh yeah 20 years ago around now was my 1st Track Day with ClubSUB @ Manfeild, Ronin won a Jacket & I scored a "Most improved" Wallet

 

 

that's about my memory of the day

 

so yeah was a bit nostalgic up in the Tower on the weekend watching FlatNATS '23 group taking off

 

back in the day I used to Hire the track under my  own name (maybe around 2006 or 7) and we did what we wanted pretty much

 

same for Taupo, though we did get told off for a DIrtbike hah

[Optical]

I dont think I joined until 2006 or so... Somewhere on an old harddrive are photos of my first 'cruise' up the Awitu peninsula with MattyC and a few others

 

 

[boon]

Well this forum says I joined in 2009 but I definitely signed up on the old old forum, which is where I bought my old '96 GF8 that started this whole sillyness.

 

EDIT: Oh RIP just checked the plate and it was stolen back in 2018.

[Joker]

"Everyone" that was a member of the old forum has the same Join date in 2009 as that's when this version went 'live' ❤️

 

thanks to @funkytown @Odie at the time iirc sorting the structure out

[newsuba]

Earliest record I have is from 2004 when CS had a dynoday at the place in Taonui St that had a rolling road dyno.

 

 

[Joker]

20 years next yeah huh Elite Auto?

 

I had a 'fancy' digital Fujifinepix 5megapixel? Camera with no Microphone

 

 

 

[newsuba]

Woohooo

Many years on and I've yet to discover the moving pictures settings on my cameras

 

Not Elite but Fortech Performance or similar name, long gone.

They had the only awd rolling road in town ?

Think I joined 2005/2006ish... recently back into the Subaru ownership game too, trying to relive the glory days! Have added a 2004 WRX STI Spec C WR-Ltd to the fleet. 

 

First Subaru was a 2004 WRX WR-Ltd, then a 2003 Spec C that got turned into a race car and written off at the ITM400, then built a 2002 Spec C into another better race car which I sold post Covid and naturally have regretted ever since!

A reunion at some point would be good value.
