Club will be organising the events,

Finer details and how this will be incorporated into the club are being nutted out behind the scenes at the moment.

Hold tight, and all will be revealed come Members Meeting and beyond.

The current plan would be to have organised SAUWA driver training as we currently do, but equally you can attend a session off your own bat, both would be equally valid.

Sounds good...

Track day!!! WOOOO

Although your probably referring to AHG skid pan... :\

We'll accept either option, aslong as it's a supervised event. AHG is much cheaper, and in general will be the event that most people would be likely to enter, but if you wanted to do a No Limits event at Wanners, or compete in any other form of club level motorsport, that would be even better :P

Yes Tom, it's about time you did one :P There is one on this weekend, but all spots are taken, but come along and cheer us on it you'd like :D

Where? Belmont racecourse carpark or the airport?

What sort of track days are you guys interested in ?

AHG Skid pan

AHG Track

Wanneroo Track

Collie Track

????

All of the above but I'd need a towball and a trailer before I could hit Collie up.

definetly keen on AHG or wanneroo. not sure if the car will make it back from colli and i dont feel like forking out for a tow truck

Hmmm, still think you should put out feelers for an all SAUWA Bargs day Paul.. You know it makes sense! :)

As Dan mentioned we are, but you'll need to realise that it isn't as cheap as doing an AHG day.

CAMS License $100

Event Cost ~ $165

So as you can see it would be nowhere as cheap as an AHG driver day. This isn't meant to put anyone off, but if we are to organise an event, you'll need to understand it may cost you close to $300 if you don't already have a CAMS license. To some this isn't alot of money, to others it is.

    • Ah ok. I seem to be mixing it like everyone else does so not sure what's happening. Will experiment with it more.
    • Depends on what you mean by OK. First up, was this done cold or hot? Are they reasonably consistent? Yes, they are reasonably consistent. Could be better. But unless it has had a build at some point, it is a ~30 year old engine and you'd expect some variation. Some of the difference could also be in user technique Is it good compression? Well....not numerically, no. New they were >160 psi. The one at 140 would be fine, in that context. If they were all ~140, you'd be reasonably happy. But the one that is @120 is twice as far down from the original numbers as the one @ 140. But.. (again)... technique can play a part in the absolute magnitude of these numbers, and the quality/state of repair/accuracy of the pressure gauge is not known. In the context of the above, the compression tester that was used last on my car is regularly compared to a known good pressure gauge. Not calibrated, exactly, but compared to a reference instrument that is not used for any other purpose, so cops no abuse. So we can trust the measurements off that tester. But another tester in the same workshop wasn't being compared against the standard and was reading a good 30ish psi lower. When you're reading 100 psu but the engine is really doing 130, you can make bad decisions.
    • More likely from tiny bubbles in the filler/putty. Maybe be less aggressive when mixing it. Perhaps invest in a vacuum chamber to pull the air bubbles out?** **I don't know if this is a thing for body filler. I see hardcore epoxy makers degassing their mixed resin on the regular.
    • IIRC, the speedo on these is fed from the sensor in/on the snout of the diff.
    • They were. I bought the AWD for experimenting but racing it would disqualify or disadvantage me from a few race classes. Def getting a FWD for racing.
