Noel you forgot the date in the title again, ill fix it...

Its probably worth mentioning (for the greater community) that at a normal Tnt you would get about 5 runs if your keen...

At this event with the same gusto you would easily get 20+ runs...

A normal Tnt costs $38 this is only $50 (or $40 for members)...

This SAU private TnT is absolutely the best value for money if you wanta give drag racing a crack...

ps> im in

  • 4 weeks later...

I will have to keep an eye on this one, when would we need to be paid up & whats required to get on the track?

Cheers

I thought id like the events crew answer this one, but its been here for a few days so ill have a crack...

Pay asap, sooner the better to lock down spots...

You need long sleeve shirt, sealed in shoes & full length jeans/trousers...

In short wrist to toe clothing, so the only parts of you exposed are hands & head/face...

As for helmet regulations, you can use any type (motor cross, motorbike, open faced, rally, circuit, drag helmets are all acceptable)...

It must have an Australian standards sticker on it at the back... (The five tick sticker, like the one below)

Thats it... Just remember to have fun!!!

What are the rules and regs required for a bike as i'd be keen?

Are full leathers required or will street gear suffice (dririder textile jacket, leather gloves, draggin jeans and armoured moto race boots)?

Any info or direction would be great. Thanks in advance.

Hey,

I ran my R1 last time SAU went out there.

To be honest its the same rules as car drivers with the exception of riders must wear gloves and a suitable bike jacket.

I wear Draggin jeans, leather jacket, leather gloves and my leather dririder boots.

Your kit is fine, if you wear that gear you will be considered acceptable to ride.

Its only track days at QR or lakeside that require full leathers.

Does anyone know if there is an option to pay on the day.

Im just worried as my car is getting a quick tune tonight to make sure everything is spot on, and wont know if its good to go till tomorrow.

This is a concern as my bank takes a couple of days for payment to go through and whether it will be in there for the day.

Sent Todd a quick message but haven't heard anything as yet, and looks like he hasn't been online since the 18th on his profile.

I just moved up from melbourne and havent got my helmet up here, do they have any for hire or does any1 have an xl size helmet. My shoei helmet is xl but in melbourne still with my ducati :( . If there is a way I could get one wouldnt mind giving the R35 a run :)

    • True, might get it looked at. Found out you can in fact flatten the 12v battery relatively easily too the other day (kids lefts the hazards on) so meaning to get that checked in the new year. What's odd is it'll blow cold from both vents if you have the ac down as low as poss (18), but anything else the passenger one blows warmish. Also has been summer since I got it obvs but noticed it didn't seem to want to blow hot last night when we had a cold snap. 
    • You ask for things. You specifically state you want responsiveness. A link was provided for a far superior, more responsive option. Find a MX5 workshop that will install it for you. Maybe MX5 Mania will throw on the Fab9 kit. It seems they want to charge almost 14K installed for their kit, so if they charge you $6K to install the FAB9 kit then you'll be ahead? Though really, the 2.5 with a 2860 running low boost will more or less feel as good as anything else. It's a lot of displacement and a small turbo. Think of a more modern RB26 with one stock turbo :p TBH, truth be told I've been driving my own car, and use about 50% throttle at most for 99.9% of the time. Mr Bogan is likely similar so this is all going to be semantics for the use case he actually has. (He'll be happy with anything relative to now) However, the EFR is hands down far superior in this use case. You really, really, really, really do notice it over the Garrett or equivalent.  
    • You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap
    • Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy 
    • Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.
