Cams Licence

[silva33]

Hello all,

Im keen on hitting the track and preparing my car for my cams licence, maybe soon in the events through April..

I know there was take of what you needed to do to your car e.g, bonnet restraint, blue battery sticker etc but I am having trouble finding the thread about it..

Can someone either let me know what i am required to do to entre and botain my licence or lead to a link that has all the info?

Cheers

Do a search.

You need to become a member of SAU. That'll cost you $20 joining fee + $50 p/year membership.

Then you send of a cheque for around $83 to Cams once you have filled out the paperwork from the cams website. A club official needs to coutersign it to prove you are affiliated to a car club.

I went down to the monthly meet at the Bells Hotel in Sth Melb on the Tuesday night & snowman signed it.

Then in a week or two Cams sends you out your L2S licence, which is all you neeed for basic track hooning.

You need to get a fire extinguisher ($35-$40) from K-mart, a bonnet restraint, a helmet & a long sleeve cotton shirt. You need a blue triangle sticker to throw on your car's front guard or rear window to show where the car battery resides.

I think that's about it.

Well worth it, but get it happening coz it will takes a couple of weeks to get this all done.

Have fun!

I tried a search, but couldnt find much.... thanks for that.

can i do all the work on the car, fill out the forms and pay on the day of racing? and where does eveyone screw the fire extinguisher in the car?

What work on car?

You will need to be a member b4 you get cams licence.

I am not a committee person, so sheck with bec, Snowman, Adzmax, R31_Nismoid, etc.

I'm fairly sure the answer is no.

If you get the right extinguisher (1kg from memory) with the metal bracket, you remove the bolt holding down the rear seat in the rear footwell & bolt in the fire ext. bracket there. I did mine on passenger side so easier to access if req'd. it's also out of the way for ppl. Think it was around a 12mm bolt in my R34.

Thanks again,

i am a member and in another thread Bec mentioned i could just turn up on the day but i just wanted to make sure all i needed was what you mentioned, e.g Fire ex, Blue Batt triangle and bonnet restraint.

Hi, You will need a fire ex with a MEATAL bracket, not plastic. You can pick them up at Autobarn or K-Mart prety cheap. A bonnet restraint is easy, a bit of plastic coated metal rope, a couple of clips to loop the ends and 2xD shackles to fasten them, thats is what I used. Some people also use trailer tie downs, the seatbelt type material and just tie it down through the latch. The blue triangle can be electrical tape or you can buy them from Meridian motorsport. I have a heap at home if you'll be at the next SAU Meeting.

There is always plenty of people who will be willing to give you a hand on the day if you neeed.

You can only turn up and get the CAMS license sorted on the day IF someone from the committee of the club you are a member of is there to sign all the forms for you. But you'll also need to pre-arrange this as it's a slightly different form to the one downloaded from the CAMS website.
