Just came across this today via Facebook.

NSW Wakefield 21st - 22nd June

VIC Winton 26th - 27th April

Just came across some video of last years event, looked ok but I think they only had about 7 cars there though.

Anyone interested in participating? Did anyone check it out last year?

went to spectate at the Vic one last year and it was pretty interesting. Got to get pretty close to the cars in the pits and everyone was open for a chat.

Will prob head up again this year to check it out.

I competed in the VIC event last year.

I think I'll pass this year though as it was expensive and I'm a shit driver lol.

What did they charge you?

Did anyone go to Wakefield last year? From the footage I watched the field was pretty barren

I'm pretty sure it was somewhere between $400-$500 for the 2 days.

Richo entered both the Vic and NSW Time Attack. I'm not too sure if anyone else from here entered.

I came 10th out of the top 10 cars as there was only 10 cars left to enter haha.

It's cheap. $300-400 for entry in club. Which is multiples cheaper than WTAC.

Both events were small fields, but it's the first year they have run it.

I'd hope with a bit more promotion this year the field will be larger.

Top 10 shoot-out is a nice change from the norm.

I plan on going to both again.

yeah was the start of the day,

still a little panel work to do, but it won me std 2WD at nats at the end of last year so seems to be back working fine.

Would be at the vic TA this year but expected it to be over easter again, date changed to ANAC and I fly out that weekend so i'm out.

kinda annoying as I picked the holiday dates around it but what you do. had to grab cheap flights whilst I could.

    • People think it's a waste of space, ugly, etc, generally associate "emissions control equipment" with "bad". These OBD1 vacuum-only systems I'm not a huge fan because I think they don't go far enough. They're wasting some of the fuel captured because they start purging as soon as the engine pulls vacuum. Later OBD1/OBD2 they put an electric purge valve on them to vent only when closed loop is active so the ECU will trim some fuel out. Even later OBD2 with zero evaporative loss the tank is 100% sealed from atmosphere until you run the engine or press the refuel door release. The tank has to take much higher vacuum/pressure spec but you never deal with saturating the charcoal canister and losing some fuel that way. The fuel also lasts as long as it would in a 100% airtight container which is nice when you're dealing with modern E10 pump gas.
    • If your luck is anything like mine, what happens is in the process of pulling hoses to get access to the one leak you create many more leaks because every o-ring was on the verge of failing and the strain of pulling it apart caused it to fail. Sometimes life is simple, sometimes you pay twice trying to save once. For the R33 you can still get most AC components from Nissan, I use nissan epc data or amayama to look up the part numbers and then search for the cheapest/most practical way of sourcing from there.
    • The dirty secret is there is nothing recyclable about the plastic bag or old plastic bottles either. Our local trash collection explicitly calls it out as hazmat in both cases. Oil-soaked rags + paper towels too. Oil-soaked cardboard is also not recyclable. The most common case of oil-soaked paper like that is pizza boxes, which are explicitly compost-only from the oil. To my knowledge hazmat oil contaminated plastic the only solution is either landfill or "thermal recycling". Most plastics in my experience there is slow permeation of the oil it's holding into the container so it's very challenging to get it 100% clean.
    • Yes, and since RAA insurance essentially being swallowed up by the same monster that is NRMA insurance and all those other clowns, they are no bloody good now either. We dropped RAA insurance for the house a little while back because they lost the plot.
    • I can tell you now, good luck if you're with NRMA (NSW equiv of vis RACV and QLD RACQ). Because NRMA are freaking horrendous to deal with for claims, even with a normal road car. Not to mention even more BS when they're in the wrong and didn't cancel a policy etc when they were meant to and make you jump through hoops for things.
