Autosports "christmas At Wakefield" Dec 15th 2007


Recommended Posts

AUTOsports Australia are proud to announce:

Family Christmas Track Day

Saturday 15th of December 2007 at Wakefield Park Raceway

The AUTOsports Crew are happy to announce the next and last track day for 2007.

Sorry guys, this has been cancelled due to wakefield resurfacing the track. Another date will take it's place.

* Maximum of 60 cars

* Full timing as well as passenger sessions

* Christmas fun for the kids

* Each Driver will receive an Autosports long sleeve track shirt

With the success of previous events, we would like to extend an invitation to performance and motorsport fans, to come down to Wakefield and have a heap of fun.

We will have on hand John “Bozman” Boston, Australia’s best driver trainer… we will also have 2006 Aussie Racing Car Champion Paul Kemal as well as multiple Dutton Rally winner Martin Notaris along for driver training. The services of these skilled driver trainers, is included in the $160.00 entry fee.

Normally when we head to the race-track, our partners and kids don’t get along and see how much fun we are all having. This event, we would like to encourage everyone to bring their Wife’s and Children and find out how much fun we have.

We will set up a marquee on the back straight (between turn 9 and 10) as well as maybe a jumping castle and other activities for the kids as well as what ever else we can get going for them. Given that it is Christmas… we will have Santa come along with a few surprises.

* This event will have timing for all cars.

* Each group will have a session without timing for passenger 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 passengers 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. Please let us know if you have any problems.

Please take note of your reference number as displayed on your registration page. If you forget this you can click on your name below and see it again.

i really wanna do wakefield, this sounds like a good opportunity...

On a seperate note, does purchasing a Wakefield park licence automatically cancel the need to have a valid CAMS licence for the day? (sorry i'm a wakefield virgin)

hey corinne :rolleyes:

if everything goes well with 'hitman' in the next couple of weeks, i'm in for this one

i'm assuming this isn't a skyline only event??

It's an open event to all car makes and models, we had a Ford GT40 at the last one and had a Ferrari F430 at the one before that just to give you an idea. :thumbsup:

Corrine if your car isn't ready and you still want to go down anyway let me know and i'll collect you on the way down. :P 90% chance i'll have the wagon by then :(

hey corinne :D

Sure thing James!

Hope all goes well. AUTOsports is an all car club, we have lots of evo's, wrx's nissans galore even some prestige cars.

Everyone who is motorsport minded is welcome. :)

Hey Hey Ian,

I'm hoping my car is, I've actually been asked to do a charity event on this day. If my car isn't ready buy then I will be either riding down or taking the ute down to wakie :)

And I'm In.

I expect it's BYO trailer ?

You got that right. BYO glue gun too for your little spills all over the track missy!

No you're not. The only reason you are in is because Beau is going and you're trying to get into his pants again.

I'm amazed that you thought that up without a glass of wine in your hand corinne. :)

Beau is only going so he can attempt to defend his time against the GTS lol.

Remember everyone. Your position is only confirmed when we have recieved payment. We are already half full!

Who is confirming payments? I paid the day I signed up but still have the asterix thingy next to my name :/

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
