Coffee machine onsite....im in. also getting my brother to register as well. (im currently sorting out my cams license).

So i'll put my application form in and arrange payment and put TBA and bring my receipt from cams if i dont have my license in time?

I'd recommend putting in a call to Cams after you submit the application to ask them to fasttrack it because you've got an event coming up... if you don't have it by say... Wednesday... give them a call back and ask for a quick cover letter to be emailed to you saying that you do have a licence, with the number, etc...

Ive got my cams number and ive lodged online for my license. so thats all sorted and paid for.

Reading the Entry form and it states - Entry is open to members of affiliated car clubs.

Our Club is cams affiliated so is that ok? or does it mean affiliated with SAU?

Any CAMS affiliated club is fine. Membership must be in date too. Proof is required (membership card)

Cool payment sent this morning. My brothers putting in his now. i'll have a membership card along with (hopefully it turns up by then) my license on the day.

Now to wash the dust off the car and get it ready,

Get him to enter, the front page list a definitely a few cars behind, but if he enters now he'll be on the list for sure. There's still two weeks to go, people always have some car hiccups and need to cancel, so even if he does go into reserves he'll get in (or full refund, so no risk)

Just a reminder NO AASA NO CAMS LICENSE NO ENTRY. You need to have these or a letter from said companies saying that you have one and it's in transit or guess what.......you get a free entry to being a spectator or better still a volunteer :)

hey guys so i found a flat bed car trailer 50bux a day. it only has a winch to hold the car which isn't enough. Never towed a car before, how can i strap down the car? I've seen tow trucks strap wheels down but this thing dosnt have a spot for it.

trailer looks like this:

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
