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.

    • That is self help. Encouraging others to spend more than me, makes my spending relatively less ridiculous.
    • Oof, I don't think you should add it up like that! It sounds much better at $21 per issue. I don't see any problem there if you enjoy the process and the result. I really like the magazine side of it with all the little tidbits and facts. Also, if anything, these forums are all about spending unreasonable amounts of money on hobbys. I wouldn't call it a self-help group because people generally suggest to spend more
    • I put another 2 layers of putty and still getting pinholes. Think i might either try the filler first then putty or just leave the little specs of guidecoat as is and get primer to fill it in. I think i misread understood what you said above when you said my glazing putty wasnt enough for the size of the area. I thought you meant 1 coat and i needed to. But i think what you meant was that I needed filler first? I also went a bit too far out the repair area as my spreader is a bit large.
    • You do sorta. In my instance they were little specs and I didn't even think they'd be pin holes but it all makes sense now. Huge learnings there!
    • Ah ok that makes sense and it's where i think i went wrong because before when i put filler then putty, i didn't have this issue and now i do because i only put 1 coat of putty. Thanks for that heaps man, it's a good way to put it! With my putty I'm using the dolphin glaze which i just saw it says finishing putty lol. I didnt put filler cause it was a shallow area but i see what you're saying. Also I'm an idiot, i just realised that while i put new putty there are pinholes! I probably saw it before and ignored it for whatever reason. I think because i thought putty is used to fill pin holes that itself wont make pinholes but that's incorrect of course. I feel silly now haha. ok I think I know what to do next. Thanks man!
