Wakefield Park SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 8TH 2007

track_arial.jpg

This event is a great introduction to motorsport, we will have John Boston from Ian Luff Motivation Australia as well as 2006 Aussie Racing Car Champion Paul Kemal from VIP Petfoods Racing on hand for driver tuition.

  • This event will have timing for all cars.


  • Each group will have a session without timing for passanger rides.


You will need to have a valid CAMS or Wakefield Park licence. A Wakefield Park licence can be purchased at the track when you register. I believe that the cost of the Wakefield Park licences have recently increased to $50.00. Note that all passangers will also require a Wakefield Park licence.

AUTOsports has invested a serious amount of time and resources into getting our new online event registration system up and running. Those wanting to participate in this event please go to the Events section on the website or click ont eh following link; http://www.autosports.com.au/events/view/2

THERE ARE NO OTHER WEEKEND TRACK DAYS AT WAKEFIELD AVAILABLE FOR ANYONE FOR THE REST OF 2007!!!

The cost of the day is $160.00 per driver.

Full "weekend" track day... full timing facilities... some of the best driver trainers in the country and a great atmosphere for $160.00.

I am proud to state that this is seriously good value and i challenge people to find a better deal!

All other terms and conditions are available via the events section on the AUTOsports website.

Oh Oh and i have Friday off due to APEC.... hhmmmm Corinne put me down as a maybe! Will confirm after DECA if thats ok!

You're already down silly!

The autosports events site shows all 50 entrants booked. This event isnt already fully booked Corinne?

We might need a reserves list.. There are quite a few who haven't paid as yet.

You would have to speak to Marty about that.

sounds like a very good deal. kemal and boston are both very handy steerers. shame it's sold out, but I don't think I could get my sh1t together in time anyway :D

I'm already confirmed.

I like wakefield (and icecream) :D

I don't like pikers....I reckon peddler has to start demanding payment within 2 weeks of signing up or they're off the list. Otherwise it will just be the same shit again next time. I think 7 reserves have already been bumped up to fill spots. That shit ain't right as the booking is made based on people showing their interest and signing up in the first place.

I understand that too. But in alot of cases it's people claiming a spot so they have the option. In this case it's pretty bloody obvious that is happening. As soon as the call went out for final payment 10 people dropped out.

I specifically didn't sign up for the circuit club day at EC and the wakefield evo day so that i knew my car would be in working order for this day. If shit happens between now and the day and i can't make it I'll accept that i've lost my money, and know that the organiser isn't out of pocket as a result.

Seriously, how many more track days do you think the Autosports guys will organize if they lose money on this one as a result of drop outs?

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
