Only a week and a bit to go until the first SAU Vic Motorkhana round at DECA.

A few entries are still available - but get in quick!

If you aren't competing but are still keen to be involved - come up and join my hardcore team of event officials. We need starters, timers, gate and car marshalls. It's an honorable profession - and lots of fun.

You need to be at DECA in Shepparton at 8.15am on Saturday morning, where you will be briefed by Snowy as to what needs to be done. We supply you with everything - including radios, fluro raver vest - and a complimentary lunch. You even get a free Lada ride to your official station!

You could even show up looking foolish in a national magazine - who could possibly want more!

The event can't go ahead without officials - so to all those who are keen to help, you have my gratitute in advance :P

I look forward to seing you all there!

James

PS: if you are interested - but want to know more, come to the club meeting next Tuesday:

To those considering being a DECA official it's a great way to meet everyone in the club and also chat to drivers for each of the events. The work itself is very easy and a chance to experience some motorsport and crazy skidpan action directly in front of you.

I did the starting for the short wang in December and it was awsome, a stack load of fun plus you get to watch all the cars unleash fury when they launch

I was going to volunteer until you threatened:

You even get a free Lada ride to your official station!

:(

I'll be there, just can't guarantee 8:15am startability (I'm getting old, and I can't keep up with you young'ns all night Friday night either).

  • 3 weeks later...

Just want to say a HUGE thanks to all the officials who helped at DECA the other week.

This probably is a bit belated - but it's helping me own every thread on the page.

Hooray for ideas that beer gives you!

    • They work on really anything track related now. They do my mates r35 gtr and it's a weapon of a car.
    • I use the penrite 600f in my cars and have had no issues even at Townsville v8s when I drove that but I bled fluid end of day for just in case. Good value and a about 38-40 on sale. Use castrol srf on the supercars and no need to Bleed brakes over a race weekend. Do the 1000km with no issues. Over 120 a bottle I seen at repco. A quality brake pad is always a good starting point the ebc stuff I've seen let go after 2 sessions with heavier cars. I'd be going to a decent track pad and maybe those porsche air guides on the control arm to help with some air over the rotor. Helps on 86/brz with stock callipers.  
    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
