G'Day all,

It has been awhile since we ran the SAUWA Karting event.

So I have booked the event for Saturday the 31st July at 1900 (7PM) Race Start

Find the Details below.

SAUWA GO-KART Endurance Race

What: 1 Hour Go Kart Endurance Race

When: Sat 31st July 2010 . 1800 Arrival and Race Suit Fitting 1830 for drivers briefing

Where: Wanneroo International Kart Track (Wattle Road, Wanneroo)

How Much: $220 Per Kart ($110 per Driver)

Guys / Girls,

Following a couple of successful Karting events, Brad and I have decided to run another SAUWA Karting event at the Wanneroo International Karting Track. (NOT WANNEROO RACE WAY)

It will be a teams event with a minimum of 2 people per team, with a maximum of 15 teams, so spots will be limited. But please feel free to come out and be a spectator and slag and generally have a good time at the drivers expense.

The race will be a Le Mans start, and then into an hour (1) endurance race.

Teams will require a driver change through out the event. The event is about seeing who completes the most laps over the hour. So in order to finish first, first you must finish.

These karts are the twin engine Pro-Karts and not your ordinary hire karts, Top Speed is close to 100KMH, and I think Mike and I managed a 96.8 KMH trap speed. So we are looking for keen drivers that are interested in a bit of competition as well as a social fun day out

Team numbers will be limited to 15, however as many drivers as you want per team. This will also have an effect on your driving time as well if you have more than 2 drivers.

Teams will be competing not only for forum bragging rights, but Trophies that will be presented at completion of the race by our Brad and I.

For 1st (Mike & Bard) 2nd & 3rd.

There is a perpetual trophy up for grabs for the winners.

Paul & Tom are our current champions.

Now the serious bits!!

Firstly each team will need to place a credit card down on the day of racing to cover their Kart in case of damages. Now I know that this sounds off putting, but seeing as these are the Pro-Karts it is the only way around of driving them without having a CAMs kart licence.

(No clean, smooth driver has ever had any damage)

Bring your own full faced helmet if you want, (they do have helmets available to borrow )

Long shirt / t-shirt and pants as well as closed in shoes (sneakers) is a must.

For those of you that were there last event, you will agree it was a great race with not only some super competition and some extremely funny moments.

Well, Team Ram Rod is ready to come out and revenge its title loss of fast Kart team in SAUWA.

Money will need to be paid to Brad via the SAUWA Event Bank Details which will be handed out once you have confirmed entry via PM.

Cheers

Mike

Haven't seen Tom in ages, hope hes still around to help defend our title. I also haven't seen the Trophy we won ever since I gave it back to Mike for engraving :sick:

Didn't he pretty much win it by hogging the kart? :action-smiley-069:

I linger...

ditto...

Also, I belive we were Team From Behind.... but it's not fitting any more. Maybe "Team Tom" or "Team clearly consist 67% of Tom"

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
