Why the rule banning Porsches from ClubSprint class ? Is the event going to be predominantly Japanese vehicles or are other Australian/Eurp marques encouraged to enter. I see some BMWs are in the mix

We would like to see it mainly Japanese vehicles which is the reason for the no rear 6 Cylinder or above rule to rule out the millions of porsches which would take over the event. A good point has been raised by a few people about ferraris and lambo's being able to enter. I am fine with that mainly because I can count on 1 hand how many lambo's and Ferrari's will enter whereas I would not be able to count with both hands how many porsches we would end up with. We will see a few Holdens and fords and some Euros in there to mix things up and keep you Jap racers honest :(

So rally rego is OK for Street Car Class?

Cheers

The vehicle must have legal registration papers for the state it is registered in. Remembering though all vehicles in Clubsprint Class MUST have a Catalytic Conveter and a FULL interior.

I also have an RX2 Nc historic racer, will it be eligable for the street class?

Only if the car is registered and has a full interior.

Help me!!! is there a class that my car will qualify for?

Its from a major manufacturer (its a March), its mid mount, engine is stock.

Can I come? purty please? Oh bugger! I'm pretty sure my tyres are R compound :down:

Unfortunately Open Wheelers are not allowed to enter.

haha yeah we all know what ferraris and lambos are used for don't we. Wonder if any ferrari or lambo owners will ahve the balls to take their car out for a few laps.

A bit of mix wouldn't hurt, hope some euro cars turn up.

haa haha, would be cool to see how it goes on the track.

Are you sure the R35 GTRs in the Clubsprint class will have rego by the time the event rolls around?

And personally i wouldnt be too worried about Porsches dominating the event. I mean, they are more of a risk in the Open Class then the Clubsprint. My little GTSt is quicker then just about any 993 RSCS or 997 GT3s that i have been on the track with. And the Boxster S which in std form is a pretty good damn thing is not actually rear engined. So if you may want to tweak that rule to stop Boxster/Caymans with twin tubos setups from rocking up and giving a lot of cars some hurry up

So does that mean we carnt use the Kumho V70A's?

And we can use the Federal 595RS's as they have a 180AAA rating?

The Kumho V70A has a UTQG Rating of 50 so is not useable for Clubsprint entrants. But the Federal 595RS's are 180 so they are fine.

damn i built my car specifically for these kinds of events but i got a 30/25. I think this has actually worked against me. My car is 100% a daily driven street legal car but the engine puts me into the open class which is full of hardcore track vehicles. The fact i need to use my car as a daily driver and its completely financed by one 22 year old means i'll be completely out of place competing in the same category.

Mine is much the same mate, and is financed by a 23 year old :D I'll be entering open class. I'd have a zero chance of winning, but hey, it'll be fun!

Guys i spoke to nathan for a while yesterday, i mentioned to him the position the rules put cars like mine (and a few of you others) into. He said that there's most likely going to be another class opened up soon but not for this first event

So im going to this first event to help boost numbers, have a fun day out, thrash the car - and meet some of the other tough GTR owners from around the place

Next time we (RB30 crew) can have a good shot :D

Mine is much the same mate, and is financed by a 23 year old :D I'll be entering open class. I'd have a zero chance of winning, but hey, it'll be fun!

Exactly the same here, 23 too. This year will just be having fun and getting experience, then when money isn't so hard to come by I'll field a much more competitive car!

Agreed!

Worst case we have our own 23 year old battle... SR22 vs RB25/30's :D

SR22 vs RB2530 vs RB2630

Lets have it anyway! $20 in the pot, winner (regardless of class) takes the whole pot

dam you all you young wipper snappers :P (26 'ere...)

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
