Well the final round of the 2006 State Autotest Championship was held last sunday at the AHG centre near the airport. From all reports there were some fierce battles for the final class placing's and outright championship points on offer.

I would just like to congratulate three SAUWA members, Gavin Page, Andre Vaisey and Liz Sheehan who came 2nd, 3rd and 4th respectively in their class. WELL DONE :ninja:

It just goes to show that you don't need mega horsepower monsters to do well against a field that consisted of Jaguars, supras, bmws and even one ferrari!

Thanks Ant. :pirate: Also Andre (leadfoot) came 3rd - he is also from these forums. Throughout the season he placed 2nd and he did this running without R-Comps... beating some of those who did have them and the suspension to match. That is an awesome effort.

I will be contesting every round next year i hope. Only got 3 this year as my car was not ready :P . Look forward to some friendly competition from ya's.

oh by the way, Congrats to you guys for your results. Very well done.

Well done guys. Fingers crossed I'll be there competing next year ;)

then we shall see who can't drive :) If i place before you - you have to buy me a supercharger for next xmas okay?? If you place before me - i'll just take you out to dinner :)

I think the ferrari only competed a couple of times. But the guy who drives the Jag... when he tries he places well. As soon as he gets a wrong way or hits a cone he just starts putting on a show for the crowd doing 360's etc... its good to watch at least!

totally stoked with my placing and my way cool trophy am gunna have to majorly shape up next season with the quality of everyone entering the class thru this season

and well done to the other sauwa guys

    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
