Ever wanted to go as hard as you like in your car on private roads and 100x100m skid pan?

Thinking of getting into a bit of motorsport?

Want to learn how your car behaves on the limit?

Then this is the event for you! And if its your first time SAUVic is offering a huge discount for our September event:

$50 entry - Conditions: This is your first SAU Deca Event & you are a SAUVic member. Normally $85.

EVENT THREAD

We are trying to attract new members to our awesome event. It is the best entry level event which im sure many people will attest to below. One of the biggest things we have found with new entrants is that they are unsure of what to expect and therfore do not enter so we will try to dispel some of the myths:

FAQ's:

Q: Is this event good for someone with no experience?

A: This is the BEST first event. You will learn SO much about car control! If you are thinking about entering track days it is highly recomended that you enter a DECA to get the basics of car control.

Q: What do i need to do to my car to enter?

A: Basically you need to bolt in a fire extinguisher and have the car in a track worthy condition. More details can be found on the entry form.

Q: Does it matter what kind of car i drive?

A: Previously, the field has consisted of everything under the sun from stock family cars through to high end euro race cars. You DO NOT need 'power' to have fun or be competitive.

Q: What licence do i need?

A: The most basic licence requirement is a AASA 'club racing licence'. This costs $50 per year.

Q: Is it hard on my car?

A: Hardly. Most runs go for less than a minute. Surprisingly there is little wear on tyres. However, you are able to give your car a harder time if you choose ;).

Q: Is it competitive?

A: The event is all about fun. Events are timed and there is some fun rivalries however a lot of people just enter for the social side and the fun of driving.

Q: What if i dont know anyone?

A: Everyone was once in this position. We are all friendly, like minded people so it will take no time to make some great friends and contacts.

Q: Can you take passengers?

A: Simple answer is yes. There are some requirements and a disclaimer.

Q: Is it expensive?

A: No. This is the cheapest value for money motorsport event you can enter. It is low impact on your car, does not use much fuel and entry is cheap. SAUVic do not run this event to make a profit.

Q: What else goes on?

A: Most people come up to Shepparton on the Friday night. Saturday night it is somewhat of a tradition to go out for dinner then head out drinking. Its not a requirement and plenty of people simply make it a day trip but its a great social weekend if you do choose to stay.

Thats a bargain!

Everyone thats 'thinking' of doing DECA ends like this - "that looks like fun, i should have just entered"

Myself included ... I had nothing to worry about as all the people at DECA are really nice and I learnt a heap on car control and got me hooked on track days (and coming back to deca)

DECA is only half the fun....! The other half of the fun is to be had socialising back at the caravan park! Talk cars, get tips, have a drink, make new freinds and have another drink!!

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
