The SAUSA committee have agreed to open 8 spots up for the general public for the SAUSA track day 5, the details are as follows....

It's time for our first track day of 2012 and we have a special surprise for you, this time around, we're allowed PASSENGERS!!! That's right, no cage needed, just a helmet, a special day license, a waiver form and an extra bit of money to cover insurances and you can be blasting around Mallala with your mate in the passenger seat! What could be better than that!?!?!? As with our previous days, this will be a grip only event so no sliding; we don't want to get into Clems bad books.

The total cost for the day will be $250 (up from the usual $200 to cover the extra insurance needed for a day like this) PLUS an extra $50 for a special AASA license to allow passengers. If you have a CAMS license, you won't need to pay the extra $50. Applications are available on the day so there's no worries there, just make sure you have the green stuff in hand. Deposits will be needed as we need to secure the track, this will be $150 and will need to be payable by March 25th (non refundable), as usual any problems with money and get in touch with us, we aren't monsters and understand things come up so we can work around it. The remainder is due on April the 6th for general so you've got plenty of time to get the cash together.

Also to note lap timers can be hired from SAU-SA for the day and at a very low cost of $50 per person. These are a great tool to help you learn what works and what doesn't on track and just how things influence your times. They're also good for bragging to friends :P Please note if you want to hire one and we will mark you down on the list. They've been quite popular in the past as those who have used them can attest to; payment for these is also due on the 25th of March.

On the day we'll hold a raffle for one lucky person to ride shotgun in Munro's 35GTR, he'll take you out for a session and scare your pants off :P Tickets are $1 each and will be drawn after lunch

A free BBQ will also be available on the day, drinks will be $1 per can.

If you are intending to bring friends and or family, can you please make note of how many you intend to bring as a rough indication of just how much food for us to bring.

Date: 16th April 2012

Please express your interest here and you'll receive all the payment information

Thanks

SAUSA Committee

The R35 is having a few "tweaks" before this meeting so will be interesting to see if it can "bring it" to the R33.

R33 will have new set of slicks & has been tuned for E85 so hoping for a good day.

BTW. The passenger ride will take place BEFORE lunch. I am not keen on getting the car messy!

These days are a lot of fun so come out for a run if you can................

Is it just personal time trials and do you know how many people on track at once?

Keen for some safe fun

Last track days the groups have been sorted into Beginner through to the Hardcore. Jump in the Beginner group and have fun. Towards the end of the day it becomes a survival of the fittest sort of thing lol

There's no 'racing' go as fast or slow as you want.

We usually let cars out in groups of 8, that way there's plenty of track for everyone :)

Sounds good! Pretty keen- will have to check the cash funds and my calander then decide >.<

    • 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.
