The issue with that is that SD have set pricing and it makes it hard for a club like SAUNSW to make it work.

If only they were like any other venue and just had a hire price and thats it, we could allocate how many entrants, then it would be fine, but as it stands, the clubs events are not full enough most of the time to put any money back into the account so it's hard to justify booking a venue that doesnt sell out

Its good to see the government looking after us, NOT.

When the boat has its bits back in it Ill do a bit of research on the weather and try to work out a dry spell, Ill post up a day that weather wise should be fine a month or so in advance and see if anyone else is keen.

Im interested to see if changing tyres and reducing some rear camber can get me in the 11s

Steve, I agree re: the way that SD has its track hire set up. However, hopefully this will change in the future (as they are losing money), particularly with the new management. They just have to look across the road and see how full the track days are at EC.

Levinboy & mlr, that was my plan: have one lane dedicated to SAU:NSW and nominate one Wednesday night street meet (in advance with pre-bookings). This would be much more feasible idea and the club won't have to outlay a massive amount of money. I will see what can be done with this.

I spoke with them directly and they said they weren't going to make any changes to the structure of their club day offering. Like it or not, we have little say and minimal influence for change.

To rent a lane you have to pre-book 20 spots at the normal $50 rate (from memory). And then they put you in the "short lane" so I assume they still have all the lanes open but just rotate through the grid like normal.

We can poll for interest in doing this but might just be easier to agree a date and show up ad-hoc since you really don't gain all that much on a normal Wed night.

    • I’ve been considering one of these screens too, but I've heard mixed reviews about the software responsiveness. Some say it's great, while others mention lag issues. Before pulling the trigger, I'd check out a few recent user experiences to see if the latest models have improved.
    • Kaizo Industries put a VIN plate over where the Nissan plate would go. It was part of how they broke the law and attracted feds going after them.
    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
