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 :(

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 :/

    • 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).
