the LESS money it costs to enter a car, enter as a spectator or to eat a hotdog the more people will attend

more people = greater revenue

$ greed = 0 in the end

that's my 2cents worth

Should the Competition Car community wish to return in greater numbers to Calder Park, we would be happy to accommodate them at some future time?

How about, should the organisers greed die off, we will happily reduce fees and see more competitors attend.

Stupid really.

Want too much, get nothing.

It says "Competition cars"

Not "street cars"

Competition Cars will not, until further notice, be eligible to enter into competition for the Friday night Legal Off Street Drags.

There is a different pricing structure for Comp Cars... 'Street Cars' are still going.

The Comp Cars don't get an invite any more is the point.

People getting excited over nothing :P

i was thinking the same thing but given all the responses i thought i read wrong...

considering it was about $40 or $50 dollars(cant remember exactly) about ten years ago, and given the increase in the cost of living in ten years, $15-25 is not that much of an increase..

Im going down tonight

it is still running as stated by r31nismoid it is for comp cars only offstreet drags are still happening but as stated the number has droped off alot since the price hike friends have been going saying there is lucky to be 20cars but everyone has a sook the price is up think of it this way

$50 you got what 3 runs? no its $60 and you get 5 runs in 15min and leave due to being bored HAHA i will tell you how many cars are out tonight

People getting excited over nothing ;)

I could have sworn the first time I read this thread there was a massive rant about the new Calder management being greedy f**ks by you. :)

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
