Proposed Planned Events For Act Sau "club"


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

This is a test and a demonstration to see if we can create a plan for some planned events for ourselves. I will update this post with the proposed events discussed in this thread.

Please post ideas on events, but we really need people who are willing to put their hands up and organise an event. Even if the event only attracts 3 people, so make it an event you enjoy.

Ideas for events

Motoring events

Skidpan day, Track day, Dyno day, Shannons Wheels day (march?), Marques in the park (November?), hill climb

Non-Motoring

Paintball, Pizza nights, Movie night, Go karting

Well, two things that we always seem to end up at are the Shannons Wheels show (in March?) and Marques In The Park (in November).

They are both show & shine events which are organised by external parties, I think Shannons in both cases.

I'm happy trying to organise the skidpan day. Maybe for November? Shannons and Marques in the park shouldn't be too difficullt. Would be more hard work, if we wanted a more official presence than last year though.

FEBRUARY 2008

EVENT: Cruise/Photo shoot

DATE: Either the 16th (saturday) or the 23rd (saturday) of February 2008. Details TBA....

ORGANISER: Frink

would we possibly get more of a response if we post/start this thread again in the 'mainstream' ACT section?

OCTOBER 2007

EVENT: Day cruise to Sydney to check out the Australian International Motor Show

DATE: Saturday the 20th of Octobet 2007

ORGANISER: R33Driftr

More info can be found on the following link: http://carsguide.news.com.au/aims

I'm keen to try and organise discounted entry tickets/parking if people are interested.

I'm also happy to organise a similar cruise to Autosalon Sydney 2008

I donated a case of coke and handed out for donations on the shoot night - we made almost $30 towards our banner :)

Now we need to use that $30 to buy sausages and bread (unless someone is a butcher or a baker who can donate) for the Dyno Tune BBQ starting from breakfast time through to after lunch to turn our $ into $$$ for our banner.

I am away that weekend so can't run the BBQ - Do we have any volunteers?

We need the banner before Marques in the Park.

    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
    • Cheers for the info mate, I'm old too, 60 years old next May, so a more linear delivery of the 0.86 would be better as baking tyres and snapping heads isn't on the cards for me or the car I assume a more linear power delivery would be better for engine and drivetrain reliability as well, IRT the torque load at lower RPM???, as well as lower EGT's???, if my understanding of that is correct, have I got that right??? I've only got a really basic understanding of turbo sizing and all there characteristics  Cheers for the useful information 
    • What kind of power delivery are you after? If it's nice and linear, the 0.86 would be better. If you're after bake tyres and head snaps on boost the 0.64 would be fun. I'm boring and old, so linear power is preferred. Lately I've been watching videos on Z06 Corvettes and super charged Mustangs.... 
    • I’d go the smaller rear just because you’re staying on 98, if e85 I’d go the bigger one
