wow! just went to watch the wrx club track day at sandown and its time i get my arse into gear and get out there!

so my questions go like this; how do i officially join you guys so i can do these events?

cams licences for things like todays track day is that just the written form that you fill out and send off?

apart from helmet what else is needed? do you need a fire extinguisher (what size?) do you ned secondary bonnet fastners?

oh and by the way i drive mitsubishi evo 6.5 tommi (would write his last name but that means getting up off the couch and going outside to the car

to see how you spell it.)

anyway any information would be much appreciated. :rolleyes:

depends on the track. up here at Queensland Raceway sprint days, you can purchase a 1 year license for $55 and you're away. all you need is a helmet, long sleeve top and pants and shoes. fire extinguisher is only necessary for cams events. most cars already have a 2 bonnet fastener system. you know when you pop the boot? thats fastener 1. when you release the catch, thats fastener 2. in Melbourne you will probably need to get a cams LS2 license to do sprint days. the form is downloadable from the cams website.

hope that helps.

Become a member of a CAMS affiliated club, and that would be SAU-Vic :)

See here

Once you get that sorted, you can join in on CAMS days.

AASA days are different (winton etc) but that can all be explained to you in due time and its not much more of a cost.

So basically get SAU-Vic membership first, get the CAMS sorted, then hit the track :thumbsup:

Its nice and easy :D

Lloyd,

I'm guessing you are posting here as most of the EVO's you saw down at the WRX Club event are memebers of SAUVIC. The reason being we have in our club championship provision for an EVO Class so you will be competing against other EVO's.

To get your CAMS license as mentioned all you need to do is join a CAMS Club and then pay your $89pa for a CAMS license.

For your car requirements my advice is to go and see Jeff at Techsport (being an EVO guy I hope you know who that is) and Jeff will hook you up with all the little car things you need. He makes some great extinguisher mounts and can sort a bonnet restraint for you. You should be able to get everything sorted well in time for the next event at Winton on July 28th.

    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
