  4. Championship Scoring & Points System SAU Track Championship Full points for THREE(3) or more people in class 1st Fastest time in Class - 10 Points 2nd Fastest time in Class - 6 Points 3rd Fastest time in Class - 4 Points 4th Fastest time in Class - 3 Points 5th Fastest time in Class - 2 Points 6th Fastest time in Class - 1 Point 7th and below = 0 Points Partial points for less than THREE(3) people in class (as per note below) ** 1st = 6 points 2nd = 4 Points ** There needs to be at least 3 people representing a class in each round for maximum points to be scored, otherwise 1st can only receive a maximum score equal to 2nd place which is 6 Points. Notes: 1. Two championship rounds are able to be dropped from the score before a total is achieved, this will be the worst scoring round from the entrant, or an event not attended. DECA Rounds Each Sub-Event of the Event will be scored individually. Points will be awarded in order of finishing from highest to lowest as follows: 1st = 50 points, 2nd = 49 points, 3rd = 48 points, 4th = 47 points etc, and so on down to the last competitor. All points from each sub event are accumulated and a total is created with the highest score winning. Classes are AWD and RWD. Penalties: Hit Cone (Make a cone move from it's spot) = +5 Seconds Per Cone Missed Gate/Cone (Wrong Direction) = Slowest Time + 10 Seconds. Did Not Finish = Slowest Time +10 Seconds Did Not Complete Full Course = Slowest Time +10 Seconds (Missed more than 3 Cones) Did Not Start = No Score - Nil points
  5. Track Etiquette Passing It is the obligation of the passer (faster car) to make the pass. Do not erratically brake or move off the racing line without first signalling to the faster vehicle behind you. Signaling If you want a faster vehicle to pass you, signal with a clear hand pointing to the side on which you wish to be passed. If you want them to pass on the left, then signal over the roof of your vehicle. Do not use indicators to signal passing. Flag Signals Flags will be used at designated points around the circuits. Yellow Flag: The yellow flag signals a situation of danger ahead. Drivers must slow down and show extreme caution. Drivers may not overtake other vehicles until they have passed the green flag. Green Flag: All clear signal. It is used at the end of the danger area controlled by yellow flags. Drivers may continue on at race speed. It can also be used to signal the start of a warm-up lap or practice session. Blue Flag: Overtaking signal. The blue flag informs the driver that he is about to overtaken by one or more faster cars. When the flag is waved, it draws the driver’s attention either to the closeness of the car about to overtake him, or to the high speed at which it is approaching. The blue flag can be shown motionless when the faster car is still some distance away but approaching quickly. Red Flag: Stopping the race. The red flag will be shown at all posts on the circuit when the Clerk of the Course has decided to stop the race or practice session due to a hazard effecting the course. All drivers must stop racing immediately and proceed to the pit area. Drivers must exercise extreme caution and being prepared to stop if necessary and be aware of the possability of support vehicles on the track. Black Flag: Return to the pit area. The black flag is usually shown at the Start / Finish line by the Clerk of Course or his marshal. The flag will be shown whilst your vehicle is being pointed at. This informs the driver they must return to the pit area immediately and report to the Clerk of Course. Checkered Flag: Denotes end of session. Use the remaining lap to cool the car and return to the pit area.

R-Spec Tyres Explained Competition Street Legal Radial's (Dot Approved Semi - Competition) In other words they are sticky / soft compound List of known R Spec Tyres - UTQG Bridgestone Potenza RE11S - 40 Bridgestone Potenza RE55 - 40 Bridgestone Potenza RE520S - Yokohamma Advan A050 - 40AA Yokohamma Advan A048 - 60AA Yokohamma Advan A032R - 60AA Dunlop D98J Dunlop D01J Dunlop D02J Dunlop D03Z Dunlop D93J Toyo Proxes RA1 - 40AA Toyo Proxes R888 - 50AA BFG G Force T/A R1 - 0AA Michelin Pilot Cup - 80AA Hoosier A3S03/R3S04 - 40AC Avon Tech R-A Pirelli P Zero C Pirelli P Zero Corsa Hankook Z209 Hankook Z211 Hankook Z221S List of soft compound street tyres - UTQG Federal 595RSR - 140AAA Kuhmo KU36 - 180AAA Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 - 180AAA Hankook RS3 Achillies 123S UTQG = Treadwear, Traction, Temperature Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test track. A tire graded 200 would wear twice as long on the government test course under specified test conditions as one graded 100. Traction - Traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. They represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. Traction Grades Asphalt (g force) Concrete (g force) AA - Above 0.54 - Above 0.41 A - Above 0.47 - Above 0.35 B - Above 0.38 - Above 0.26 C - Less Than 0.38 - Less Than 0.26 Temperature - The temperature grades, from highest to lowest, are A, B and C. These represent the tire's resistance to the generation of heat Temperature Grades Speeds (in mph) A - Over 115 B - Between 100 to 115 C - Between 85 to 100
  7. Information for Beginners Personal Requirements - Safety helmet (AS1698 standard) in good condition (ie. free of dents and scratches). - Gloves are optional. - Leather or suede footwear must completely cover the foot and be firmly fitted. No sandals or thongs allowed. - Driver apparel must cover the body from ankle to neck including up to the wrists. Long sleeved and flame-resistant clothing is mandatory. Wool is best but cotton overalls or trousers and shirts are also suitable. Race-type overalls are not necessary. Driver Training - Is not absolutely required, but SAU recommends you make your first track day a driver training day. There is a lot to take in and you wont post a quick time on your first outing. Driver training sessions won't be timed and you will only be on the track with other driver training vehicles. You will have the chance to have an instructor with you, this will typically be another club member who has some track experience. Driver training costs slightly less than the normal sprint days (You wont get to compete in the super sprints at the end of the day) If you choose to 'not' do driver training as your first event, just place yourself in a slow group and spent the first half of the day following slower cars and learning the racing lines before trying to go off on your own and improve times. Phillip Island Sprints: You can do driver training at Phillip Island as your first event, and if your instructor believes you are skilled enough he can allow you to participate in sprints after speaking to the clerk of course and making that recomendation. If Phillip Island is your first 'sprint' event you will need to provide details of an advanced driver training certificate. Vehicle Requirements - Fire Extinguisher (AS1841, AS1846 or AS1848, Minimum of 900grams) Securely fastened with a metal bracket and reachable by the driver from the drivers seat. - Valve Caps (Preferably metal) - Boot / Cockpit - Must be free from all loose articles - Headlights - Any forward facing glass must be covered by tape or contact (This only effects R31 and R32's in the Skyline Range) - Roll Cages - Must be CAMS approved - Bonnet Catches - All rear-hinged bonnets must have an additional independent non-flexible strap fitted. Permanent straps/pins attached to the bonnet are not necessary. It is acceptable to tie the bonnet down with light rope. Bonnet Pins are also accepted.

  9. well now FPV is dead, the GT motor coming out in the XR8 so priced just over 40K new. oh the 335, it has an over boost feature so if you give it a prod it does 375. that's some bang for your back. and considering the 2 AU built cars I've ever owned have been the ones that fell apart more than any other, great engine or not I think I would pass. I'm sure when the FPV were done "bespoke" they were much better, but now they assembly line things, meh.
