Am bringing about 6-7 S15's down... Its the annual MelbS15 DECA invasion for us :)

Boo!! I was shattered last time when I rocked up to see only one (Gold 33 GTS-T) Skyline participating! I think there were a couple of others that were running around in the morning but had finished by the time I got there.

Wish mine had an engine.... All this action on my door step but nothing to play with. Should pull out the Datto ute... Lacks horses though...

hi guys, want to join as my first track day and have a few questions:

is a cams l2s fine or has to be aasa license?

Is this a track day competition or skid pan?

How does it go with roll cage? any is fine? can i have a passenger without a roll cage?

Do they have tire fitting facilities if i bring my own tyres? also do they sell new tires there too?

Hi Andrew,

Cams L2S is fine, you'll also need to show your current Affiliated Car Club membership card (like SAU VIC for example), AASA is the other option...

It's skid pan with some Timed Back Track work, it's definately not a track day. Youtube for DECA Long Wang for examples of the Back Tracks...

Yes, Yes Yes... Do not have to have a cage to race, do not have to have a cage for passengers, it is not a high speed event... chances are the fastest you'll go on the day is about 130kmh on one part of the Long Wang...

No tyre fitting facilities, the skid pan generally does not chew through tyres too much, unless you're deliberately trying to destroy tyres, you won't need fitting facilities... I'd recommend bringing a spare pair of wheels for the rears if you're planning on driving back to Melbourne and think you'll be finishing a set off.

Thanks for the reply Simon, when you say i have to be a club member, is that a payed sau member or unpayed counts too?

Also do you know much on driving an unreg vehicle with a permit to deca?

Paid & entered :)

perzn_34 - you need to be a paid member of SAU-VIC to have access to obtaining a CAMS license.

& in regards to unreg vehicle permit - when I had my silvia on permit after I'd just imported it, it only allowed me to drive the car to & from workshops & vicroads for the purposed of repairs to gain a roadworthy certificate.
Basically if you get pulled up you have to be able to prove you a driving the car to either a workshop for roadworthy purposes or to vicroads for registration purposes - I don't like your chances of driving to DECA on a permit if you get pulled up.

Tell them you're taking it to Ken Muston Automotive (where I work here in Shepp) and you'll be right! "I promise officer, they're really good there!"

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
