Hey Bec/Leon/anyone, whats the link for the aasa renewal? or should i bring my expired one and have you guys do the paperwork? :P

Just bring teh same form filled out on the day and we will write your license number and renew on top.

Youre meant to do it with them, but I dont think you'll have time now, and with AASA we can work around it. :D

Not a problem as long as there are no loose items.

Often some people have a few loose bolts etc lying in the wells - not a good idea should you hit something. A flying bolt would make a fair mess of your egg.

so for those driving up on sat morning, i remember talk of the meet point usually being BP Wallan?

i'm coming from Bayside way so will be jumping on bolte etc and last time i did this we met a group at a servo complex not far into the beginning of the ring rd i believe.

but i guess it depends on where you're coming from

oh and Google says 2hrs, 45mins to shepparton, sound about right?

Timing sounds right.

Just remember there are fixed speed cameras along the way and a fixed speed camera on the main road in shep, make sure you are doing under 50kmh in that zone.

For anyone driving up Saturday morning - just remember you need to be there at 8am.

PLEASE DO NOT be late!!! :D

It should go without saying, but people in the past have made it very hard for us to sign them in and scrutineer their car while we are trying to run events. You are the one that will miss out on runs if you arrive late.

+ 1 glad i came and watched!

Just some of the pics i took!

Had a great day, really enjoyed getting the car out and having a go with a really good bunch of people - thanks to the organisers, sponsors and volunteers who made the day possible, really appreciate your efforts.

I too had a good day, even though I'm not driving again, but may enter next DECA.

Huge thanks to sponsors, committee and volunteers for making this day possible.

And huge thanks to whoever gave me a ride in the pan and wangs.

Gutted, got off a plane Thu night, went to start the car Sat morning and she was dead as a door nail and now wont hold charge. Was looking forward to volunteering and giving Sat night a nudge. So looking forward to the next one already

    • 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.
