The issue with that is that SD have set pricing and it makes it hard for a club like SAUNSW to make it work.

If only they were like any other venue and just had a hire price and thats it, we could allocate how many entrants, then it would be fine, but as it stands, the clubs events are not full enough most of the time to put any money back into the account so it's hard to justify booking a venue that doesnt sell out

Its good to see the government looking after us, NOT.

When the boat has its bits back in it Ill do a bit of research on the weather and try to work out a dry spell, Ill post up a day that weather wise should be fine a month or so in advance and see if anyone else is keen.

Im interested to see if changing tyres and reducing some rear camber can get me in the 11s

Steve, I agree re: the way that SD has its track hire set up. However, hopefully this will change in the future (as they are losing money), particularly with the new management. They just have to look across the road and see how full the track days are at EC.

Levinboy & mlr, that was my plan: have one lane dedicated to SAU:NSW and nominate one Wednesday night street meet (in advance with pre-bookings). This would be much more feasible idea and the club won't have to outlay a massive amount of money. I will see what can be done with this.

I spoke with them directly and they said they weren't going to make any changes to the structure of their club day offering. Like it or not, we have little say and minimal influence for change.

To rent a lane you have to pre-book 20 spots at the normal $50 rate (from memory). And then they put you in the "short lane" so I assume they still have all the lanes open but just rotate through the grid like normal.

We can poll for interest in doing this but might just be easier to agree a date and show up ad-hoc since you really don't gain all that much on a normal Wed night.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
