Entries Open: Sauvic Deca - 25th July 2015 - Shepparton - Its Back!


Recommended Posts

Yeah that's my concern, that looked sketchy in that recent vid in the dry.... no real run off there... tree's oh god the tree's.

Ah don't be a pussy!

You can go as hard or not as hard as you like, often slower can be a bit faster (especially in the wet). So it's only dangerous if the pilot is being dangerous :)

Given how wet I was one year, after standing in the torrential rain for a good 15mins directing cars, safe to say no matter what the event goes on! Viva la DECA!

(I may or may not bring cheater EVO if weather looks sketchy lol).

Considering the event starts at 7:30 and is nearly 2 hours away, even for northies, you might want to reconsider your departure strategy :thumbsup:

Thanks for confirming event start Birds.

Amend departure time to 5.30am @ Greensborough, this should give ample time to arrive following scrutineering and driver debrief.

If there is not many people interested in driving up, I'll just head off per own schedule.

Cheers

I used to leave eastern suburbs latest 5am back when deca started 8am...

Just in case anything goes wrong or you have to sort out anything with your car and scrutineering/licensing it's always a good idea to get there early rather than on the dot!

think there 10+ spots left so get it in, should be plenty of runs for every-one with the limited entries.

I've got the CAMS license, mate who's done a DECA with us before is coming too, just getting AASA posted in the mail today.

Oh yeah, we're sharing the same car (mx5 - nohomo)

Do we just apply separately?

go though the online form and you will see an option for shared car.

both need to put though an entry but mark that you sharing car so you get put in same group a bit apart so you have time.

I remember that day.

Submitted and paid!

Good stuff Jack! You and Jarrard?

    • Noice Once exhaust leak is sorted post vids for audible sexy time The thing should be a laugh riot to drive
    • Nah, apparently the way to do it is just mess with how much timing the engine uses to try to correct idle. So it massively undershoots, then overshoots, then undershoots, then overshoots. So timing is going from 5deg to 45deg to 5 deg to 45deg. But I kinda prefer the car to not lurch around and have a dependable idle. Given it didn't idle for shit and stalled about 7 times on the way home, still yet to drive it for the 2nd time to see if it's fixed.
    • Best chop idle FTW, just add an idle timing hole lol
    • Alright. Many little things have been sorted and the car successfully drove home with an incredibly huge exhaust leak. Unsure if it's simply been awhile, but new heads and cam and intake sound f**kin awesome. It might only be me that notices it though, and it's hard to tell from a 15 minute gauntlet run home and attempting to bleed the radiator. Undertrays on, tools out, road brake pads in, idle un-f***ed, time to do some road tuning. From my commute around town it sounds and drives *really* nice (with a max of like 35% throttle). It'll go to a dyno for a proper before and after once the tune is more roughly dialled in. And @Dose Pipe Sutututu I did learn how to do a proper chop tune at idle. I did indeed even do it, but the car shaking around at idle from the driverr seat made me make it smooth again.. I feared for my engine mounts and clerances to engine bay jank. . After the exhaust is fixed I may mess around with it more. I'm just happy to have it drive around without bucking or stalling which is a WIP.
    • Oh and my rear arms may need some attention too.
