As I'm the final throes of getting my car ready for the track, I've been looking into upcoming events to get some track time. For the most part, it seems like I can get away with the cheaper and easier to obtain AASA licence, as the SSCC Supersprint at SMSP only requires AASA, and as far as I can tell so do most other supersprints and club track days.

So what would I need an L2S for? Apart from being more expensive, it's also a pain in the ass to obtain. What's the benefit?

I have both, the L2S was really easy to get... Just costs more!

I had to get the L2S to run with the hillclimb series, if the AASA covers everything you want to enter then i dont see any disadvantage to having it :)

Cams L2S you can do hill climbs, sprints, drift, motorkhana's etc

AASA club level will only do track days and sprints at some tracks.

some tracks in NSW are now pretty much only Wakefield and SMP south. SMP south it all depends on the club running the day.

for example,

MX5 club (homo's! haha) run on SMP south but through CAMS, of course the CAMS supersprint series is by CAMS.

SSCC, Festival of Sporting Cars run under AASA at SMP South. the other SMP tracks (North, GP, Brabham) are on CAMS.

so really, what events do you want to run?

dont think there is an events calander out for next year yet so hard to forecast what events to run.

for me, I ditched my L2S as I wasnt doing hill climbs, only door to door through MRA and FoSC which are all AASA.

$100 bucks for AASA racing, or $110? for a sprint licence from CAMS...!

I believe that for club track day the AASA $50 license is fine. But for CAMS you have to have L2S (>80kph).

Also you have to get CAMS through being a member of a CAMS club. SAU NSW is a CAMS club so you can obtain through us.

Best to go to the websites and read the info on their forms.

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
