Sau Vic Motorsport Championship Round 4

[Ant97GTR]

SO my questions is...how mnay people get booted at WRX Sanodwn days because of noise because I havent touched my car since the folly of my first session there the other week when I got booted

There is no way my old GTR exhaust was a noisy as your thing Roy so I was never picked up at Sandown. That being said I have witnessed a few cars like commos get booted so I do know it is enforced...well at least while the EPA bloke is there

[ssxRicho]

No need for new tires Blags. Just hit it up with what you have now

Troy.....heahehaeh

Is this going to be...bet how many laps Troy can do before he gets booted for noise...?

[R31Nismoid]

well at least while the EPA bloke is there

[Roy]

But its such a farking waste of money to go there and two 2 sessions of tyre pressures. Then one session where you get black flagged...if the Scrutineer is sincere then he will ask what you have changed and if the answer is nothing they wont let you run. If they are pretty easy going they will let you go back out knowing you will get pinged the second time.

Need to find a second hand Racepace R32 GTR exhaust .. or just tottle around wasting $ in sessions and then give it a squirt...so hard to improve on your PBs when you only get 4-5 laps in total

^^ Agree. I didn't get told off for noise at the Alfa club sprint, i'll see how I go =]

Spotted 45+ entries, still hoping to enter late and review weather first.

I don’t have to worry about noise but I understand the annoyance of uncertainty, mines the fire extinguisher, relying on rule judgement calls but least they’ve tried to define what is required for 25g force.

[ssxRicho]

ya this is the time of year.

imo if the mount doesn't move, should be fine. any movement, you maybe in trouble.

THe noise checking isnt done by WRX club staff but by Sandown. So its out of our control.

I dont recall anyone ever being pipped by them on a WRX day.

My noisy friends tell me the idea is to make sure your exhaust pipe that pokes out under rear door is facing away from the EPA guy.

They must have been narked by the epa.. i saw ad in paper for a parttime job monitoring .. i was going to apply, but it might have been a conflict of interest.

Yes you can buy a CAMS license on day from us.

As I said earlier about the fire extinguisher ... i dont expect scrutineers to be checking bolt size this time round. But cable ties are probably out.

Pity I reckon you can build a full race car out of cable ties and race tape.

pretty sure this is a proven fact at vicdrift days

[Subarau]

I worked at the track that was put in at TopGear live at showgrounds.

The drifters did demo laps. I have never picked up so much smashed fibreglass or seen so many panels held on with race tape in my life.

They actually had panels held on with ties that were designed to break and fall off rather that smash them.

so this is filing up fairly quickly folks, as of Sunday around 55 entries.

so get in whilst the getting is good!

Are there any issues with spectating?

I just wanted to do a bit of look-see, talk to people, see how the event is run, see what I need to do before I hit the track later in the year.

[Russman]

No issues on WRX days. Go down and introduce yourself to people.
