Hell, I ran a mid 12 with a hole in my radiator and no belts!! lol

Way to wieght reduce :thumbsup:

I would like to see half the team back up events to show a vechicles versatility and the other half dedicated discipline to show what can be done with a certain vehicle in a certain discipline

Problem with half the team backing up as we've said though makes things boring to watch and reduces spectators. Of which there were not many from SAU I'll add.

Would rather see 15 people get the chance to compete and show the best of what the club has. Also makes it more fair so there's more people involved.

Well I didn't even know about this event til the last round, would have liked to come see some of the rounds, and if my car was ready for the trackday that Monday instead of having to spend the weekend touching things up I would have been down for look see

The best of what the club has is cars that will dominate every round, and how do you get an invite to compete or should I say who do you have to know ?

There was details about every round in the NSW section before each event, seems odd you missed them all...

Haha, oh ok, I don't really venture into the NSW area much, my bad, I usually check my content and recent posts and new topics them leave :(

I do go into the event part fairly often though, was it posted in there ?

I'll have to keep checking for next years ones :thumbsup:

SAU NSW Exec team was approached by Nulon and given the task to select the teams and as i had some free time i took it on... I arranged both rounds one and two and for round three i needed help so i couldnt think of anyone better than our fearless drag guru Kat!

2015 will be the same deal, i believe that the guys that put in the time and effort to make 2014 such a great success will also get some form of priority when it comes to doing the teams, the event is not sorted as yet but it sounds like the teams will be smaller in 2015 which is going to make things even tougher!

The Hillclimb at Buladelah was hard to fill a team as not many wanted to make the treck, the track day was the exact opposite, it was hard to pick and choose BUT the guys that actually made the effort to represent SAU at Buladelah were given priority, it will likely be the same situation for 2015. All of the guys that competed in those 2 rounds actually offered to represent SAU in round 3 as well to back up all round but the decision was made to send some super quick cars to get Nulon the publicity it deserved for arranging an epic event, and also so we could take the win :ph34r:

The guys that competed this year all put a lot of time and money into prepping the cars and as a result of the track days some breakages occured (I even blew a gearbox prepping for the event)... So a big THANKYOU to all of them... And again well done!

Also the idea of posting it in the NSW section is that it was a club event so it was put there to get the regular SAU members involved.

I do want to add that it is easy to openly critique an event like this that is open to the public. But I applaud Nulon for taking a grass roots approach to come directly to us clubs for the event. These are real club owner cars that competed. It was very difficult for the club execs to select our team to represent us and there never is a way to make everyone happy.

Kudos to everyone's hard work and Nulon for taking the initiative to create such a great series. I'm sure they will take learnings from this year and make next year's event even better.
