I would love to do the Gymkhana leg of this and I am putting my hand up, but realistically it is really expensive for a promotional event and 2x 1 minute runs.

The Show and shine is also quite a lot

im also curious about the track time to cost ratio.

Maybe SAU sponsors could help with $$ ??

My aim is for SAU will look to covering part/all of the entry fee in conjunction with SAU Traders (by putting stickers on the car etc).

BUT - Until we know the REGS (yep, harping on about it again)... Then we are in a rock & hard place and unable to make such a decision until we know what we are dealing with :(

Great news! I've seen a bit of correspondence on other forums... they're sizing up the competition!

http://forumbattle.com.au/

Regs are up on that website. Although the regs are clearly lacking a lot of detail.

One can only assume there will be a secondary update.

NFI how long it has been up, I'll read and digest it over the next day or so.

Regs are pretty loose aren't they?

Other than the cut and paste job stating both 90dB exhaust noise and 95dB maximum noise @ 30m (not sure how they can distinguish which noise is louder?) you can enter any production based car with a seat belt, fire extinguisher and secondary bonnet restraint that runs fuel listed in the cams schedule. Did i miss something?

It's a bit different to the original spiel:

Technical Regulations for relevant disciplines with specifics are designed to encourage road going, road registered, high performance vehicles to compete in a competitive yet safe and fair environment.

Yeah it certainly makes it quite "open" in terms of restrictions.

I have a feeling there will be a 2nd release of regs or something later on to refine further.

Hope not as it would mean planning back to drawing boards for a 2nd time.

..."2. The event is designed for entry by performance and high performance fully road-registered vehicles (no limited or special permitted vehicles are eligible to enter)"...

Limits the entries somewhat for ya Ash. Not hugely, but a little.

Can someone close to the ARC guys tell them there is a typo.

.."1st Outright Time Attack (Under 3000cc)"..

..."b. Time Attack (under 3500cc – *note turbochargers attract a 1.7 mu"...

Which is it?

I can see Evo's being hard to beat at this event.

Also the use of the Short Track? The idea is?

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
    • appreciated it thanks   There are threads on the adaptor. I rear re anodising but didn’t know it will reduce strength   re mating services needing to be flat/ not painted, why would that be? I am devastated as car been off for a year, fixed power steering then installed bm57 master cylinder and just before driving it this came up. So annoyed   worried and afraid to drive it, no fun caliper coming off
