stu - probably no point entering the production car (depending on the regs). happy to drive your car for you though, I reckon it would surprise a few with it's times. but don't forget an event like this really needs you to buy tyres for the purpose ie soft compound that are unlikely to last the whole day.

It was the same at Mt Buller and the Supersprint Nationals before - even big cars like skylines running on medium and medium/soft compounds because you only need to do a lap or 2 at a time.

I still haven't seen regs posted so I assume they are more focussed on obtaining overseas competitors than getting local/amatuer entrants

I saw the rules on their website a couple of weeks ago... Pretty much unchanged from last year from the brief glance I had.

I was wondering whether any of you guys have previously run at Superlap and could assist me in understanding the rules/limitations of the club sprint class?

The car has to be rego'd but doesn't require a log booked cage? Wings & aero changes are OK? Wheels are free but the tyre choice rule seems like it will be the trickiest one to deal with. Any suggestions on what people have run in the past?

I can post up some proposed car specs if that helps.

Jess - I could do that too - some sort of official work :P

fly510 - clubsprint class needs to have a treadware rating no less than 100. So Falken rt615's or 215's, KU36's, Federal 595 ssrs (??)

im pretty much after advice from those who have had the experience previously as well!

Might seem like a newbie question but reading the CAMS standards, if i was to enter Clubsprint Class do i require a rollcage?

From looking at schedule A of the CAMS requriement

be fitted with a safety cage as required by Schedule J (refer to “General Requirements for Cars and Drivers” in

the CAMS Manual of Motor Sport);

im pretty sure looking at the pics from previous years i dont see cages in some of the cars.

To put it short - WHAT DO I NEED TO DO to my street driven car to enter the club sprint class of superlap -

or dont even bother?

Cheers

Steve

just turn up and make sure your car is safe.

you'll need tyres that have treadware rating no less than 100. roll cage not needed. you'll need full interior too for clubsprint (unless u have a cage)

fire extinguisher is needed.

umm...long sleeved clothing. pretty much same as a normal supersprint.

no worries, so your going for a look then?

I can get tyres as local Bob Jane has agreed to supply them for some signage, just have to do some more logging to finish tune, oh and put gerabox back in, have reverse gear scattered all over my bench. ill get it running and maybe we can do a practice day to set it up.......see what you reckon.

    • Welcome James.....will be interesting to see how much fun there is in the project. .....where's the pics?
    • Your profile doesn't say where you are, but you can get your current turbo rebuilt by any competent turbo shop, places like Precision Turbos or GCG They can replace the core with a modern ball bearing unit and should be able to source same or slightly larger wheels to fit in you housing. Note if you change the core you may need new oil and water lines too
    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions
