August 27Th Drift Practice - Entry Forms Inside


Recommended Posts

Okay boys and girls, this is it. The LAST drift practice day for 2011!!

This will be your last time to get out on the track in a non competition day. For anyone new to the sport wanting to have a go now is the time! Driver training and practice runs from 10am until 4pm Saturday!

As on the flyer $130 entry fee (CAMS and club membership - available on the day).

Baskerville Raceway is one of THE BEST drift tracks in Australia so take the opportunity to start learning on an ideal track!

AND an exciting new addition to the practice day time table, our Clerk of the Course has allocated 1 hour between 11.30am and 12.30pm during the next practice day/come and try day for sponsor rides. All sponsors must be proven to the Clerk of the Course to be legitimate sponsors and they must sign a Passenger Disclaimer before getting into the vehicle.

Drivers will also have the opportunity to ride together for training and development purposes throughout the day. All runs with passengers will be single runs. If you intend to put a passenger in your car you must declare this to the scrutineers at scrutiny and your car will be marked accordingly so that start line can identify those eligible.

It is important to note that a CAMS compliant roll over protection structure is a cage that satisfies the current FIA standards as found in Schedule J of the General Requirements in the CAMS Manual of Motorsport, which can be found here: www.cams.com.au or in the attached document.

You do not need to have your roll over protection structure certified and log booked to be able to take passengers on a drift practice day, it just needs to be CAMS compliant as per schedule J attached, and the scrutineers need to be satisfied that it is indeed compliant with the schedule. However, Drifting Tasmania recommends that you do have your rollover protection structure certified by registering your vehicle by way of a log book.

All information pertaining to the event is contained in the attached supplementary regulations, and I have attached some CAMS information regarding roll cages in vehicles ;)

I've got a pair of 17"x7 +38 if you want to borrow?

hey all im pretty new to the scene so bare with me haha..

im a member of hscc but i havent got a cams license, is cams required to enter drift practice or is cams just required to compete?

how much is a cams license because if its required i might be a tightass and wait till next year and get my years worth.

cheers :cheers:

Hey Jack,

You can get a CAMS licence on the day, I can't remember how much it is exactly but I think it's like $110.

Your licence lasts for a year from the day you pay for it so you don't need to worry about buying it at the right time to get your years worth.

Hope that helps.thumbsup.gif

Looks like I have to pull the pin on this one. My WRX is a spit of jealous rage stole all the money I had put aside for this event :(

When he got it, the tune was for the 2871r which it had before making 240kw, but was swapped for a gt-ss, but tune wasnt adjusted so was running mega rich and washed down the bores on the first motor, so he swapped the blocks with a healthy motor, had the tune touched up by a workshop (won't mention who) so was ment to be fine, then less than 1000kms later same thing happened... so motor came apart and got new rings etc, then went to pro auto for a new tune from scratch.... had some trouble with cams being dialed in so only made like 170kw... got all that sorted and then re-tuned with a t28 as the gt-ss blew, made 201 kw on a nice safe tune :)

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
