I attended the CAMS State Council meeting in Lithgow today along with carlo and Majanal.

The Council accepted our application with the result being Skylines Australia NSW is now affiliated with CAMS.

:jump: :P :headbang: :band: :rave: :Party: :headspin:

Any financial members can apply for competition licenses and we can get insurance cover for events.

If you are interested in knowing more about CAMS go to http://www.cams.com.au/default.asp, the link for license info is here.

For the basic Level 2S license go here to read about Speed Events and Motorkhanas. These are the typical club level events that we would be going along to. Initially we will be contacting other clubs and asking if we can come along and join their events.

If you have any questions that can't be answered on the site drop me an email/pm and I'll do my best to answer it. :P

A big thanks to Dino for organising and following through on this.

Also to Carlo and Dan for their part.

This is a big step forward for the club and I'm sure other members and potential members will benefit from the work put in from the above mentioned folks,

Cheers you guys !

Well, when registering for events (race, sprint, hillclimb etc) you need to show your current CAMS membership card, which is issued by the club you belong to. Only thing is, both clubs I've been in (Honda and Improved Production) had same membership cards with CAMS logos on them.

Just wondering how that will work for us, I can check direct with CAMS if you like, or maybe you guys have some sort of liason contact.

Another q, what do we do to get CAMS insurance for our events, do we have any rules/guidelines we need to follow, or can we just declare our Fast n Furious drive in night an SAU event.

Oh, and can the club now issue L2S CAMS licenses? How will they be administered?

Sorry for all the q, I just think this is a really important step forward for the club, and it would be great for members to understand more about what it means.

I'll check with CAMS on monday, I have no doubt it's changed and what you say is correct. Maybe we can just put the CAMS logo on our cards now. :P

That's what I was learning about today. They are going to clarify just what exactly the requirements are. There's a 6 week lead time to get a permit (if required, and it probably will be). Go to the CAMS NSW link and read the April Tale Spin Newsletter for a bit more info.

Go to the link in the first post for the license info. It's probably just as easy to send the form straight back to CAMS rather than to us. It will definately be processed quicker. L2S is the basic one required for speed events.

I agree, keep 'em coming.

:P

Good timing too - can announce at the SAU NSW qtrly meeting tomorrow.

Dare I say, the first BIG (HUGE) milestone for the club after 12+ months of operation.

Well done again - and very proud/pleased to be a member of such a professional & affiliated organisation.

Duncan,

That course we did at Finlays, what license does it allow us to obtain?

That is the "Observed License Test", lets you get full C3 circuit racing license.

Hillclimbs, sprints etc just require L2S which SAU can now issue :D

I think that you have to get C3 within 12 months of course - so y'all better hurry up if you don't want to do it again!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
