So I assume you have a diff fuel pump or diff turb? We don't want to penalise people for replacing dodgey parts with upgraded parts, but if you have an ECU then you will obviously be able to make more power with these mods combined... We had actually considered allowing some turbo's as standard to still allow this situation to run std class. For example - A high flowed or rebuilt standard turbo is allowed, a Nissan OEM turbo from another Nissan is allowed. Or even a standard spec replacement turbo is allowed such as R34 N1, GT-SS or GT2560r-7 Discuss....

Championship Scoring & Points System SAU Track Championship 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 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. One championship round is dropped from the score before a total is achieved, this will be the worst scoring round from the entrant, or an event not attended. CarSales DECA Chamionship 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 Wrong Direction = +5 Seconds Per Wrong Direction. Missed Gate/Cone = +5 Seconds Per Gate/Cone (Maximum of three missed cones, then DNF) Did Not Finish = Slowest Time +20 Seconds Did Not Complete Full Course = Slowest Time +20 Seconds (Missed more than 3 Cones) Did Not Start = No Score - Nil points

Track Etiquette 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. Chequered Flag: Denotes end of session. Use the remaining lap to cool the car and return to the pit area.

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

Information for Beginers Personal Requirements - Safety helmet (to 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.

Driver Training – Is not absolutely required, but SAU recommends you make your first track day a driver training day. 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 You can do driver training and if your instructor believes you are skilled enough he can allow you to participate in sprints. If Phillip Island is your first 'sprint' event you will need to provide details of an advanced driver training certificate.

I nominate Brisby as Motorsport Director

I accept nomination's for Motorsport Director

I nominate Dezz for secretary. *Perhaps you should try this before jumping straight into Prez.... Prez isn't an easy job! Funky - Aren't you in NSW more often than not? If you can guarantee attendance to 80% of committee meetings then I will nominate you.. We may need to look at a dedicated Newsletter position or an assistant to the media manager.

If SAU can't fill the bus, I have another 6 friends that are looking to book a bus. Need to know by Mon next week thou.

Was thinking the same thing.....

If you have the transfer papers and a receipt, legally you own the car and any reg that's on it. Just take those two down to vic roads and explain situation. Should be fine.

I have already got at least four including me - 34

yeah pete organise something

Ahhh - The year that was. Has been fun kids. So many memory's. HIGHLIGHTS 4x event wins in Dutton VIC, & 6th Outright Team Wed Pub night in Goulburn - Gareth's burger snatch 'n run / Drink the blue liquid Popularity of DECA / Running a successfull series. 1m21 Stock turbs @ Sandown Playing Paper Scissors Rock with Handbags Newton Shep Strippers - So funny James' nicknames LOWLIGHTS Not putting a stop to the Fencing with Tommy Testing out the VIC justice system Low cash to take the car to where I want it to be

Looks good Jack.. Always been tempted to paint my one white. Probably will once it cracks up some more. Painted looks good cause it takes away from the fact that those bonnet's come up short. Smoked side winkers would suit your new theme, and I dare say the lower lip would look nice in silver for that lower look.

\>sl33kLine</ - Send me a PM if still for sale. I'm interested in what price your after for it.

Don't quiet understand why they don't fit, as Blackrex says - should fit most cars. Can suggest taking them down to Meridian Motorsport - Toby will be happy to help you out and they can supply eye bolts in various forms. Let them know you are SAU - Toby will help you out. http://www.mmsport.com.au/

I'm considering a return in the Volvo.. T.B.C

It's a good idea.

Just a note for 2007. The committee will review the classes and tyre classifications to make it a bit easier for you guys to understand. Info will be posted before first event (I hope)

Hey.. leave my front bar alone. I like to call it Mr. Plow. Yes it's fibreglass junk and falling appart. But don't call bec a cement mixer! GTR's are longer in the nose and wider at the guards. It wont bolt straight on! Dunno how Berin made his fit. But it wouldn't have been bolt on...

Yep will work. You can seperate the bell housing from a 32 box and put onto the 33 along with the push type gear and use the 32 slave cylinder. Just make sure you get the selector ball bearing thing out before seperating the box other wise this will fall into the box. Have you done this before? If not refer to manual.
