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

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
