Sandown 12th Of August

...at this minute i think they are just rumours. I know it was on the minds of a few CAMS ppl a year or more ago, but i dont think they really know what to do yet. Perhaps nothing if the conduct continues to be as good as it was on the weekend.

I heard a rumour that there were CAMS officials present at the Sandown meet and that they were concerned about the safety of modified GTR's in that the times they are getting, and speeds they are achieving are not far removed from racing/touring cars. They may be considering a ruling that full roll cages are to be fitted to modified GTR's.

Anyone heard anything about this???

Hi Neil,

We (the wrx club) have been approached by CAMS for a sort of informal review on safety. It is fair to say that we attract arguably the fastest club cars in Victoria on a regular basis - even PCV don't manage to field the sort of horsepower that normally appears at Vic WRX club sprints.

It hasn't gone anywhere yet but it certainly wont go away in a hurry.

Watch this space.

Regards

Andrew

While i can understand CAMS being worried about the times some of the cars are putting down, but it would be a shame for them to turn around and force us to have cages, because I for one wouldn't put a cage in my car, which would mean no more track days.... that being said i guess i'd have to go as fast as you guys first... which may never happen.

Better late than never. I'd like to publically thank the Snowman for helping me out on Saturday with a set of his old pads.

I did a Ferni to my brakes, less spectacular, I went out and mirrored this senseless act of destruction on my own car. I won't ever do that again....

Then again, I can't talk. Howard just destroyed a brand new set of my Hawk Blues by getting them cut too small.
