done the math on that? it = a very long day.

it will be at least 1min between each run (assuming a 25 second run and then allowing time to get that car off the air strip).

i'll be generous and say that you;ll have them going every 30 seconds (but obviously there is no chance).

that sees each of the 120 cars getting 1 run per hour....so you'll need to sit around 6 hours to get your 6 runs.

that's without any breakdowns or oil spills or even a crash (hopefully we won't see one of those).

everyone better pack breakfast lunch and dinner if they want their 6 runs or hope a lot of people pull out after their first 1 or 2 runs.

Maths has been done on the timeframes and it all fits with time to spare. Have spoken to a couple of people that have run these events before and the day will be from 9am-5/6pm

Basically each car will run (alocated 33 seconds) and as soon as they are off the strip (onto 2nd strip to wait in groups of 10) the next car will run. Whille the group that has run returns to the pits, the next group will go to the start line. Basically, all cars will be run every 75 minutes. Also, as the day goes on, the groups will get smaller as people have car issues etc etc

The majority of people understand that this will be run over a whole day.

Again, this will be the 1st time i have run an event like this. Yes, there may be teething problems as well. Well, that is motorsport

Check your emails between now and tomorrow - sup regs being sent out now

Thanks Adam,,,got the rules and regs tonight.

In the catergory description I keep seeing "race tyres are not permitted" in every class,,,is this correct???.

Cheers

Neil.

Hi Neil,

Yep that is correct. No Slicks allowed

Cool,,,thanks for clearing that up mate. Unfortunately it also means my Radical and I stay home.

Hope the event is a huge success and everyone has fun.

Cheers

Neil.

With the number of classes available for this event (29 in total) and the likelyhood of a fair few of them not having any cars being entered into them (SVA, 1A, 3A...), we are going to have a few other catergories (event specific, nothing to do with CAMS) to spice things and allow people to compete with their mates who may be in other CAMS classes. Additional classes will be based on time, not speed, and some, due to the number of particular Vehicles entered, will be model specific.

So, we have added :

Fastest Commodore (NA)

Fastest Commodore (FI)

Fastest Torana

Fastest Ford (NA)

Fastest Ford (FI)

Fastest Skyline

Fastest Supra

Fastest Rotary

Fastest Euro

Fastest 4WD

Fastest RWD

Fastest FWD

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
