OK So First DECA for the year....March 19th

And as per usual no volunteers to help us for the day means we cannot run the day.

So we are calling for your assistance - if you're willing to help, or if you're bringing a friend/partner who's willing to help - please speak up.

We can explain what you need to do if you haven't done it before, so don't stress about that.

It is VERY easy stuff and you will get a great view of the action!!

(very good for you budding photographers)

All officials will be given a free lunch and water during the day.

We also need all officials to be at DECA by 8.00am on Saturday morning - same time as competitors.

We will be organizing Volunteers prior to the Drivers Briefing.

Until all slots are filled, Drivers briefing will NOT go ahead and the event will not start.

I know it sounds harsh but without these people we cannot run the event.

Please PM me if you are able to help out. Even if just for 1/2 a day.

Thanks Heaps

Martin

I still reckon volunteers should receive priority entry into the next DECA if they wish. You'd probably get a lot of people who miss out instead come up for the day to watch, and volunteer so they don't miss the next one.

Everytime i come down i help out where possible, generally the skidpan in the afternoon.

Its dead easy to help out and still have a go, just get whoever runs before you to do your job for your run then swap back :)

Good idea Kieran

This was tried in the past and was not taken up by many people.

thus was discontinued (hard to have a priority list for something like this.)

WE more often get partners/ friends those that want to compete usually enter or don't turn up.

Happy to discuss bringing this back if there is enough interest.

Just make it simple. If they're there on the day and assist, when the accommodation thread for the next DECA rocks up any volunteers from the last DECA are able to reserve a place in that same thread. They can't pay or fill out forms till the official thread and forms are available, but their name appears on the list with Ryan, Leon, Clive, etc.

If they don't reserve themselves between the accommodation thread and the official DECA thread they forfeit their priority entry and have to line up like everyone else.

If they don't pay within a couple of weeks, they get bumped off the list.

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
