luddenham after reading up on it, is only 1.25k long only has a straight of 250m, and 6x 180 degree turns, bigat its widest its 8m its thinnest only 6m...

sounds like a kart track or driver training, maybe drift. no pit garages planned as far as I can tell....

The development at CASAR has a 12m wide track all round, lots of pit garages etc... these guys are planning a proper race track, with also skid pan and kart track... they also develop further down the line a community involved recreation park feel, wall climb, watersports, picnic areas, their secondary aim is to have social involvement for the youth and disadvantaged in the area, the track is seen as a good way to fund a community based exercise, its not for profit, so any funds made from having car enthusiasts use the facility go back to developing the secondary aim and/or community based good stuff.

they have some good people on the committee too, very community minded people with experience in helping and teaching disadvantaged youth and the community as a whole... plus they like their racing... I know Brad goes to phillip island with his bike for track fun.

Im not sure how Luddenham is being funded.

I understand it would be considered small, but when i see lots of small tracks in Japan i think hey the more the merrier.

As far as ive herd its a Cams class C track? So driver training, club track days etc etc

They do have what looks like a dedicated Kart track there also.

Im just excited for more facilities in NSW.

It featured in the last issue of the CAMS magazine, p16: http://docs.cams.com.au/Speed%20Read/2013/Speed%20Read%20-%20October%202013.pdf

I'm sure these thing do not happen quickly, it will take a few years to open.

BTW also coverage on Luddenham's upgrades too (P19)

update from the organisers last week. Looks to me like they are a long way off their first track day but I'm happy to be patient.

Dear Crowdfunding Supporters and Sponsors,

On behalf of the CASAR Park team our sincere thanks for your show of support.

Whilst the crowdfunding campaign is now finished, we continue with our other fundraising activities – engaging with Clubs and Sponsors and seeking grant funds.

To date we have raised $42,070, plus Wyong Shire Council have further minuted in their 25th September meeting to sponsor us for $5,000 in addition to the other assistance offered as part of their initial support.

Opportunities for introductions to Clubs and potential Sponsors continue to flow, and we will work diligently to meet with them all and secure their support. Should such an opportunity present itself to you, please be sure to pass on the details.

Our next update will be before the end of the month – look forward to talking again soon.

With thanks,

Brad Wilson

Co-Founder

CASAR Park

Wish the DA would hurry up and approve it!

​everything is set in stone, just the government taking its sweet time as usual :angry:

the great news is that it is still going ahead and has everything but the DA's approval.

( reviving an old thread I know... but it's still going strong which is great! )

    • Something to note, on an aftermarket BOV, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.
    • As in they quoted one price, you mentioned the exhaust, and they promptly added $200 on top? Interesting.
    • Note that I'm not suggesting this is a great idea. Just saying that it is something that could be done to achieve a better outcome than the more shit ideas will provide.
    • I'd try removing it, connecting hoses and see if that helps. Depending on specs, it could actually be restricting the flow(it also might be helping).
    • Yes, that's a hybrid BOV. The adjustable spring load ones are about making teh pressure build up higher before venting, so you get a more agressive whoosh. That is not what I meant or what you want. By "restricting", I don't mean "keep it closed until the pressure is higher, then open it fully". I mean "open it as soon as it is required, but only have a small port area, so that the flow rate out of it is slowed down". The pressure will rise to be higher than a bigger ported BOV would provide, but it would do while it is venting. The idea is to slow down the rate at which the replacement eair is flowing past the AFM, to reduce the magnitude of the air flow signal peak, to reduce the amount of fuel that is added per revolution.
