Hey All,

Just wondering if anyone owns or has applied for a registration exemption.

"A person who will only use the vehicle for designated motorsport activities may also apply for an exemption."

--> See RTA Link HERE

If you have, can you please tell me what was the process or conditions?

I am trying to make a decision wether or not to sell my car or keep it as a dedicated track car.

Cheers.

you need to look at that link again, it applies to re-registering a previously registered vehicle which was written off

"

Vehicles authorised for repair under the written-off vehicle reforms

New laws regarding the management of written-off vehicles applying to ALL NSW light vehicles up to 15 years old were introduced on 31 January 2011.

A light vehicle is a registrable vehicle that is 4.5 tonnes or less gross vehicle mass (GVM). Light vehicles include cars, trailers, caravans and motorbikes.

The registered vehicle operator (or owner if it's not registered) can apply to Roads and Maritime Services for an 'Authorisation to Repair a written-off vehicle' if the vehicle is:

  • in an exempt vehicle category and
  • is able to be repaired to legislated vehicle safety standards.

Exempt vehicle categories include:

  • Hail damaged
  • Inherited
  • Applicant was the registered operator for more than 28 days before damage occurred.

A person who will only use the vehicle for designated motorsport activities may also apply for an exemption."

As far as I am aware, there is no rego available in NSW for rally cars. I beleive the only option is to apply for an Unregistered Vehicle Permit (UVP) every time you want to drive

Do you have a grandparent, a pensioner, who doesn't drive anymore?

That person is still legally able to own a car and thus register it for free. The limit is one car under RMS rules.

A green slip is still required though.

And then it's your call as to whether or not to insure the car and put yourself down as a nominated driver.

The grandparent would be best to will that car to you in the process or pre-sign the 'Notice of Disposal' with you as the 'Buyer'

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.

      Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
