Hi all.

Regrettably I have to inform you all that Alan Calleja has decided to step down from his role as club Secretary due to time and personal constraints.

I would like to thank Al for the work he has done so far since being elected as the Secretary role isn’t and idle role that does require a bit of time investment, only those who have done it can truly appreciate that its sometimes a fairly hefty amount of work.

Moving forward you might ask… What does this mean?

There are several immediate impacts here that are unavoidable as per below.

1. Membership Applications - There will be some people who have applied for membership in the past week or two that could see their application take longer than advised notified 14 business days. Also those who apply over the next month or so might see a slight delay at times.

2. EGM - There could be a EGM called either in July or August.

Members should watch the forums closely and attend the EGM when it is called to help the club move forward.

In the interim Committee will try its best to have as little impact to memberships as possible, your understanding here would be appreciated if it does take a little longer to process over the next month or so.

I will sit down and have a think/chat with other Exec’s. Between us we will workout ‘where too’ from here to ensure the clubs best interests in the immediate future.

If any member out there would like to offer some interim help then please let us know by email: [email protected]

Also if you have any concerns (ie. Your membership is critical to you attending a track day next week), please also send an email to us about it: [email protected]

Thanks

Ash Cosgriff

President, SAU-Vic

Ash, i am willing to lend a hand in any way i can with admin type shit(keeping track of members etc)... was planning on signing up tomorrow anyway(tomorrow is payday!)

Guess this means membership wont be processed before DECA?

-Ryan

DECA is August my friend :)

Thats almost 2 months from now - i would most sincerely hope we do not run that far behind time with new memberships and i don't imagine it will draw out to such a timeframe as that. If we do - then, well, i got nothing hehe... but realistically it wont blow out that far.

I understand there might be some currently outstanding ones from the past 2-3 weeks, so they will probably take the largest hit.

but entries open in around 10days, do all the places get filled normally?

  • 3 weeks later...

All - I've been smashing through the memberships, renewals and so on...

Im almost upto date and will start posting them out today and over the next couple of days.

My apologies for not having them done sooner - i've had virtually every set back possible to slow me down in getting them done :banana:

There are approx 40 memberships i've worked through... and we are about to crack 600 members on the DB (over 350 active) since the club formed 5 years ago which is nothing short of astonishing and when the club was formed i certainly had no idea it would grow to this level this fast.

On the upside though we nearly have the SAU-Vic Membership DB fully online!!!

This will make committee work and memberships much faster overall so there is some good in the unfortunate delay.

Most people put them on whatever car!

Although i noticed last night while doing your online application - you have not actually paid yet.

Until you do i dont actually action your membership :banana:

If you believe you have, and wish to discuss - [email protected]

Ensure you include information that helps me look into it as well :bunny:

Now you might ask - why wasn't i notified?

See the membership person wont 'chase' people for their money. And in this case - thats my job among everything else :banana:

Reason being we receive a fair few applications online that we never see money for so there isn't much value in us chasing/processing as there is lots of time involved that often turns out to be wasted effort in the end.

Who signs up and doesn't pay lol?

Take your time Ash mate; I'm sure everyone (myself included, as a pending membership applicant) will understand how time consuming this can be and show patience where needed.

E-mailed.

I have paid, I paid for both DECA and SAU at once. I even got an email back saying it had been received. I'll just reply to that one with the original quoted beneath.

Oh, and thanks. I understand how busy you can be.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
