For some time SAUQLD had resisted applying for CAMS affiliation. In the past couple of months the matter of CAMS affiliation has been revisited and after some considerable discussion at recent Committee Meetings and General Meetings with the new Executive body it was agreed that it would be in the best interests of the club to seek affiliation.

One of the major benefits is that it is now no longer necessary to be a member of another CAMS affiliated club in order to qualify for a CAMS L1 or L2 license and this will save members some money.

CAMS affiliated car clubs have the right to:

• Have representation at State Council;

• Debate issues at State Council and move and second motions at State Council;

• Vote on issues at State Council (subject to membership numbers and period of affiliation); and

• Issue Level 1 and Level 2 CAMS Competition Licences to their members (where the licence is applicable to the event).

CAMS car clubs, through their affiliation, can:

• Obtain advice from CAMS administration when required, including advice on technical, sporting, safety and legal issues;

• Gain access to and use of CAMS systems including judicial, safety, technical, accreditation, training and compliance systems and other intellectual property belonging to CAMS;

• Gain access to the expertise, developed over 50 years, within the CAMS administration and within the CAMS membership base; and

• Obtain support from CAMS administration with regard to officials’ training and event organisation.

CAMS car clubs, through their affiliation, are covered by CAMS insurances, including:

• CAMS General Public & Product Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance;

• Personal Accident Insurance; and

• Voluntary Workers’ Insurance.

Other benefits enjoyed by CAMS affiliated car clubs include:

• Operating under an integrated international system of motor sport regulation which provides stable, universal standards of competency, organisational capacity, fairness and judicial process for all participants;

• Affiliation with a credible, authoritative and internationally accredited governing body that is identifiable to Government and other interest groups;

• The opportunity to be part of the CAMS affiliated car club network and take part in events run by other CAMS affiliated car clubs;

• Access to information via the CAMS web site (www.cams.com.au), CAMS Bulletins and the CAMS Magazine (tri-annual publication);

• Access to CAMS’ ‘authority to conduct a non-competitive event’ permits, a product allowing CAMS affiliated car clubs the option of staging non-competitive events such as concours d’elegance and social runs under CAMS insurances.

• The opportunity for promotion of the affiliated car club via the CAMS website (approximately 95,000 hits per month) through the ‘club search’ function, providing information and contact details to prospective members; and

• The opportunity to feature a link from the CAMS website to the affiliated car club website.

For the benefit of CAMS affiliated car clubs and CAMS members, CAMS is obligated to:

• Maintain its status as the National Sporting Authority (ASN) appointed by the FIA;

• Maintain a risk analysis and risk management program of the highest standard to provide the safest possible environment for competitors, officials and the general public;

• Maintain a public liability insurance policy with a minimum cover of $100 million in which the excess (if any) is not the responsibility of the event organiser/club (see insurance section of this document for further details);

• Maintain a personal accident insurance policy covering competitors and officials (see insurance section of this document for further details);

• Provide a professional management and administration team which is accessible at all reasonable times; and

• Establish, manage, maintain and monitor a judicial system in accordance with the FIA International Sporting Code and the National Competition Rules of CAMS and to ensure that it delivers outcomes which are fair to all parties.

Regards,

SAUQLD Exec Team

Great stuff. Now how about a motorsport championship now? :P

We have had problems in the past where unless the motor sport facility or activities are in everyone’s own suburb they won’t pay/come.

Build it and people cannot be bothered *shrugs*

We have a pretty fun calendar for 2009 covering a verity of things, which should give people the taste for bigger and better things to come in the near future (SAUQLD championship) for example.

XYZ events over the 12 months with awards handed out at the end of year Christmas dinner.

ah so those are up to date - well in that case i will be re-joining as soon as my current cams affiliated car club membership expires!

Hey Zennon,

Yep, yearly Membership fee for SAUQld is $30. Josh's link has all the other details

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
