Anyone interested in being a volenteers on the day? We will definately ned help and any would be kindly appreciated!!!!

Whats involved? I mean will you get enough time to volunteer and take part at the same time?

[CeJay]

Is anything planned for the Saturday arvo before Texihana, if 35 odd nsw skylines will be down in Canberra that is

[Sinful]

Hey Cejay

Hmm not sure if could enter and volenteer as most volenteers will be on the back track and we need them out there as long as the cars are running around the track So could make it difficult...I prefer people that are not driving for back track volenteers

But there is the bbq and I might need one more volenteer for the skid pan

Saturday I think most people will be making there way down to accomodation so should be skylines rocking up through out the day...I know that they will be festivities on that night tho...more then likely dinner at a pub in town and some drink after..

These sorts of events are the best social gathering and its excellent cause you are bound to make a new friends and can finally put face to the forum names lol!!!!

[Bullet32]

Stupid question...

Im guessing that entrants will require a helmet for this event?

[Michele]

I didn't ask before because I already have a CAMS licence, but do you need a CAMS licence for this event?

Also for the record...

16. Mark LadyBytes (R32 GT-R or R32 GTS-T) - PAID

is

16. Mark Tuk Tuk (R32 GT-R or R32 GTS-T) - PAID

Stupid question...

Im guessing that entrants will require a helmet for this event?

it'll be pretty much like at wakefield (im guessing). long sleeve cotton top, jeans, enclosed shoes and yes, a helmet (can borrow mine if it fits).... correct me if im wrong. and you'd better take me for a lap or 2! i've just checked, you can take passengers with you...

you had also better hope that you dont need a CAMS licence for this day. i dont think you'll get one before then if you need one....

[Bullet32]

Well,

I probably wont be taking part now... Just received the entry form and apparently to take part you need an AASA licence (whatever that is).

How do I get one of those?

look in the nsw thread, licenses look like they are being sorted out on the day perhaps, now off to buy a helmet lol ah well. Would of been better if this info was in the first post though unless I missed it too.

[Bullet32]

Problem solved...

We can apply and pay for a lisence on the day... Its still on!!

[Michele]

CAMS will usually fax you a temp licence while your real one is being processed, but they have to receive your application first LOL

Most clubs (i.e. SAU) can take CAMS payment and completed CAMS form on the day, but it helps the club a lot of you download and fill out the form before you get there.

Guys,

http://australianautosportalliance.com/aas...9&Itemid=45

club racing licence is the one

Please goto the above link, print and download and bring $50.00 for the licence. this lasts a year and you are not required to be a member of a car club.

This licence lasts a year, and can be used at other Texi's (if we do them ) and Wakefield Park also

Once again, sorry for the confusion everyoneand lets hope that this day is a great day and we can all learn and grow for the next rounds

Cheers,

Chris

[Bullet32]

So we just bring the lisense application and $50.00 on the day and we're sweet?

[StinkyPoo]

Is a CAMS L2NS a equivalent AASA license?

[Michele]

I highly recommend paying the extra for a L2S so you can participate at other events such as SDMA Hillclimb and other supersprints etc being held by Nissan Sports Car Club etc

It's around $88 for a L2S (Speed) and well worth it - its even enough to do State Round Hill Climbs. No medicals, no minimum races required, no tests and uses same application form as L2NS (Level 2 Non Speed)

see form

http://www.cams.com.au/downloads/paperform...Application.pdf

Why limit yourself to a non-speed licence if you're going to the trouble?

[evil_weevil]

Bullet - yes, correct mate, and sorry again for all the confusion

Stinky Poo - In a way yes, however the AASA licence is only for AASa events.

As Michelle said, the best licence to get is the CAMS L2S - allows for more and wider range of events apart from grid racing

The $50.00 AASA is perfect if you hardly do much else, such as the texikhana's, wakefield days etc

Cheers,

Chris

I've already got a L2NS license and I've had it for just over half a year. All I goto are drift events, which only require L2NS.

I was considering the L2S license for a bit extra but I figured I would never use it, and so far never had the need to. I can't image my car going well for hill climbs which is pretty much the only event in Canberra. Even drifting, my car isn't properly set up for.... yet.... But building the car up gradually gives a heaps better feel of what changes actually make a difference in what way.

I just wanted to know if the L2NS license was sufficient to participate. I took me ages to actually receive the CAMS license book initially (I was constantly relying on faxed temp letters) and I'm not sure how long the process would take for an upgrade.

[Michele]

Okay, I'm a sucker for timed speed events LOL

Peeps if you're not likely to get involved in other types of events then the L2NS is enough.

If you are considering some "other club" activities down the track with the likes of supersprints at Wakefield, a Wakie licence alone isn't enough to participate in these events because they are timed. There are a few different clubs who hold these timed speed events at Wakefield... and because you are already a member of a CAMS affiliated club (SAU) you can participate at most of these with the L2S licence.

If you get a L2S you can also participate with Nissan Sports Car Club at Wakie, Eastern Creek, Oran Park etc and Thornleigh Car Club also have some interesting events (some at Wakie).

If you are thinking about joining me at the SDMA Hillclimb in the near future, then you will need L2S

You make your own mind up, heres the differences

Level 2 Non Speed (2NS) licence

+ motorkhana and khanacross events up to International level

+ observed section trials

+ touring road events which contain no closed road sections and no non-race speed sub-events

+ touring assemblies and non-timed road events

+ drifting events

Level 2 Speed (2S) licence

includes 2NS plus

+ single and multi-car non-race speed events up to International level

'Non-race speed events' include hillclimbs, autocross, single car and multi-car sprints and regularity trials

+ regularity trials up to National Championship

+ touring road events, including non-race speed sub-events, but not including closed road sections, up to International level

CAMS have improved their turnaround times for licences, however they do say the following

NOTES

+ First time applicants are encouraged to apply for their Level 2 licence directly with their car club in order to gain the instant benefit of a temporary 30-day licence endorsed by the club. This allows the licence holder to compete immediately whilst CAMS processes their licence application.
