Thanks guys.....If the spots dont get filled then yes it gets cancelled.

If it gets cancelled you will all recieve a full refund, however it shouldnt be the case, i have a fair few people looking into paying this week so it should be ok.

Regards,

Dean

sweet

also as you make know SAU had problems due to cancellations of wet weather and all, have WSID mentioned any penalties etc?

just to make sure WSID doesnt do the dodgey and keep the deposit.

Hi Guys, some of you have asked questions such as can bikes race etc. Here are the answers.

Additional Information

1) Motor bikes CAN race, however they are not permitted to race against cars. Same rules apply with a bike, they cannot run faster then 11.00.

2) Gates and scrutineering starts at 8am, racing at 10.

I am still in discussions as to what happens if the day is a wash out (rain). I will update you guys as soon as i know (should be tomorrow)

Dean, I would be very careful in any dealings with WSID due to what has happened to SAU NSW at its last private drag day. Is there a contract or written agreement with WSID? What happens if veryone turns up and thn it rains: (a) before racing starts and before track is prepped; (b) before racing starts and after track is prepped; © after racing starts.

I am not personally worried about it, just don't want to see the club holding the event to be in a similar situation that SAU NSW was in whereby the WSID management were going to keepa substantial amount of money which meant that each racer would lose about half their money.

I am still keen Dean however have committed to other track days prior to this one which have chewed up my spare cash.... i will be sure to keep in touch and should there become spots availiable in the not to distant future will be sure to tranfer funds as soon as possible....

I understand your concerns guys, at this stage nothing is written as no money has been transfered. Everything has been verbal at this point.

I have some info however i am waiting on a confirmation call from WSID tomorrow to get the final details.....at which point i will post them up.

PS, i am keeping record of who i speak to, what number i called them on, date, time etc so there shouldnt be any issues, but ill see if i can get something written before money gets transfered across to them.

Ah ok, i am assuming you may have put your name down to the V8owner track day.

Ok, let me know how you go, if your still interested and there are still spots we can sort something out for you.

I have actually decided to try my hand at turning corners.... and not just the corner at the end of the drag strip :( UAS is holding a circuit day at Oran Park on the 2nd of April so, providing the 200 is tuned, i will be heading out to try my hand at circuit racing....

We should be able to come across some cash for this day but obviously am not going to over commit myself just yet... Will let you know the minute i know more

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
