So when do entries close for the track stuff and can I enter my new car rather then my rubbish Nissan?

+1 on that. Just paid for my SAUQLD membership and am working on getting my L1 cams license so I can have a few laps as well. I'd hate to miss out!

Examples of some of the trophies. There will be different ones to this, but just gives you an idea of what to expect... Going ALL OUT!

There should be at least another $2,000 of prize coming in so it's shaping up to be a pretty awesome event.

Also trying to organise an After Party & presentation for the Sat night, equipped with some of Melbournes regular DJ's etc :thumbsup:

Trophy classes will look something like the below.

If people have and ideas for other trohies/classes etc then post up and if budget allows, we shall see if we can't include a few more :thumbsup:

Hard one to judge that :D

The fact there is "classes" makes it easier for a track day. Something to consider.

Also thinking something else like "Bonnet Up Award" for the guy who spends the most time fixing stuff haha.

No Best Intruder FWD? I is not entering then :domokun:

Hrm yer fair point. Perhaps just best intruder it might have to be.

if its th one in your avatar, its a cube with mags. Mr Chef has set the bar with cubes

You can't win something if you aren't entered though remember :thumbsup:

I reckon there could be some adjustments to the track trophies - there could be a large potential middle ground missing given what MIGHT come to this event in terms of out-right race cars.

The TimeAttack series in QLD had a pretty easy to follow system that meant people with registered street cars on R Comps weren't competing with Superlap type cars.

Those rules were:

Street Class

The Tyres must be DOT and ADR approved.

All OEM Tyres (This includes the factory RE070 supplied by Subaru for the STI’s)

The tyre tread wear rating must be 140 or above.

The exhaust must be rear exiting with no screamer pipes.

The car must be road registered.

Must have OEM glass.

Must have OEM doors.

Must have OEM full dash.

Must have all seats in the vehicle. (aftermarket seats allowed)

Must have full interior in the car. Not allowed to be stripped out.

Must not have in cabin adjustable brake bias or pedal box.

Must not have in cabin adjustable brake bias or pedal box.

Stock R35 GTR will run in Performance Class.

Performance Class

The Tyres must have a tread wear rating of 70 or above.

This excludes all slicks with two grooves such as Hoosier, Kumho V710 etc.

The exhaust must be rear exiting with screamer pipes allowed.

The car must be road registerable (streetable car that could be registered).

Must have OEM glass.

Must have OEM doors.

Must have both front seats (aftermarket seats allowed)

Must have dash in place. Aftermarket instruments allowed.

Must have basic interior in the front half of the cabin (removal of carpet, stereo etc and liner allowed)

Must not have in cabin adjustable brake bias or pedal box.

Race Class

This is the almost no restrictions class. Outright race.

No NOS.

*Approved Tyre lists to be supplied for Street and Performance Classes.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
