**NOTE THIS IS FOR AN AFTERNOON SESSION**

Hey guys and gals,

Due to overwhelming demand to mix up the driver training a bit, we're please to offer you a chance to do the double skidpan!!!

We the booked Driver Training day on the skidpan at the RAC Facility (formerly AHG) in Kewdale!! This event will count towards the Driver Training requirement we discussed Here.

This event is open to all SAUWA members, whether you've competed in a single skidpan event or not. If we have trouble getting numbers then it will be opened up to non-Members, so make sure you secure your spot quickly.

Please make sure you read and understand all requirements before signing up to this event. Getting there on the day and saying you didnt realise the requirments and are not prepared (not having a helmet etc) will result in you being excluded and no refund will be given. So make sure you know what you need to have!!

The training is held in a controlled environment on a skidpan with an instructor. We have paid for two instructors so everyone gets more time training (otherwise a lot of time is lost while the instructor changes cars). We am unsure who the instructors will be at the moment, however we have done several of these days and recommend any of thier instructors.

You will do a variety of motor-kahna style challenges, which aim to teach things like handling of your vehicle, braking, driver seating postion and several other techniques.

HELMETS ARE REQUIRED - RAC no longer have any so you must supply your own helmet.

- If you don't have a helmet, and can't borrow one then let us know and we'll try and assist.

When - Saturday December 12th (Afternoon)

Time - 12.15pm SHARP - 4.20pm. Driver briefing is at 12.30 so BE ON TIME!! (Missing Briefing means NO track time)

Cost - $105 for SAUWA Members. $115 for non SAUWA Members (If spaces available)

Where - RAC Driver Training Facility. Grogan Road Perth International Airport

Please note this is primarily member's only event, so you will be required to be a current financial member to be eligible. Places will go to members first and if there are any left, non-members can attend at full charge ($115)

There are only 16 spots available so please PM me if you wish to participate and pay into the SAUWA bank account details below - as you will need to pay within 7 days to confirm your spot. (First in first served basis sorry). We will not be chasing people up for payments. If you have not paid within 7 days, your spot will be cancelled with out notice and given to someone else. When you send me your PM to confirm your spot, please give me your full name, contact phone number and what model car you will be driving (preferably colour and model) so a running list can be prepared for the day and it will also make it easier for us to work out the order on the day.

Your name will NOT be added to the attendees list unless you PM me, this means we won't be taking names down from people just posting their interest in this thread.

Driver/Vehicle requirements:

Current and Valid Drivers License

Long Sleeve top, long pants required

Helmet

Fully enclosed foot wear

Car to be registered with no safety defects

Seatbelts both left and right hand side front

Can i be put on the reserve list? Would like to go, but seeing as i just did the last one should probably give some others a chance

We'll be running plenty more single skidpan days next year, this event was primariliy for those who'd already done the basic course and wanted to do more. So get your name down for it :(

Sorry, just a simple question. Why is it $30 more than last time?

It's a double skidpan, that means we get to use both skidpans (twice the size) for the course, which for those who've done it before is definately much more fun :(

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
