Hi people

This flyer was sent to me from CAMS (see below)

Its for people that have never experienced motorsport , so i didnt put it in events

If you have never held a cams licence and have a road registered car you can get some FREE laps around eastern creek, or see and learn what its like behind the scenes as a official

I don’t know all the details so read the flyer and email cams or eastern creek raceway

But it looks like the cheapest laps you will ever get around eastern creek

MOTOR SPORT “COME AND TRY” DAY

EASTERN CREEK INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY

SUNDAY 16TH JANUARY 2011

Do you dream of becoming a motorsport champion – or perhaps waving the chequered flag for a race winner?

Then the Motor Sport “Come and Try” Day – a free event at Eastern Creek International Raceway – is the place to be on Sunday, 16th January, 2011.

Experienced people on hand to advise on every facet of Motor Sport.

Advisers from the Confederation of Australian Motor Sport (CAMS), Eastern Creek International Raceway and CAMS affiliated clubs will provide information on all aspects of competing or officiating.

This will include the role of CAMS as the sport’s regulatory body as well as topics including;

• Licencing - Budgets - Insurance - Competition Categories - Event entry - Competition day procedures - Rules and the opportunities for Volunteer Officials – (a role that does not require any prior knowledge of Mechanics or engineering)

• Juniors from the age of 12, who can actually drive, will be allowed on the motorkhana circuit.

• For Juniors who cannot yet drive, there will be Driver Training sessions during the day on the Figure 8 track.

Demonstrations include;

• Simulated Races and Super Sprinting on the main track, Motorkhana on the skid pan and Drifting sessions on the figure-8 layout.

Other activities include:

 Sample drivers’ briefing by a Clerk of Course,

 Tours of the control tower, scrutineering bay and weighbridge,

 Explanation of race control, timing / lap scoring and other roles,

 Information on vehicle preparation safety and the role of the Scrutineer,

 Safety and medical information from a paramedic,

 Procedures in the event of an incident, and

 Practical demonstrations by flag marshals and trackside officials.

Numbers may have to be limited, so be quick

c'mon guys, its a free intro to motorsport day. you can't really complain if you are not a n00b (ie have held a cams license). the idea is to give people a no cost chance to have a look at motorsport.

ML73ZR, you would have to check the details, but I understand having a road license or not will not be an issue.

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
