Shoota_77 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I might see what cars we trade in over the next few weeks and maybe enter one of those. I valued an ML63 last night, that would be a bit of fun!

Birds Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 SUVs and 4WDs on the other hand don't fare as well Something in my memory about a Subaru Forester overturning Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/457759-entries-open-sauvic-deca-25th-july-2015-shepparton-its-back/page/2/#findComment-7564385 Share on other sites More sharing options...
emts Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 don;t think we ahve had a roll over, I do remember seeing a FOz's spinning drive shafts it was that angled over however. another club had a Micra roll over. but huge turbo and stock suspension and not the chicanes we use...bad mojo..

Shoota_77 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Maybe not the ML then... Probably not the S500L either, that big barge wouldn't get around the first cone.... Something a bit more nimble might come up.

MaximuSmurf Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Does this go through regardless of weather? Just with it being this time of year wasn't sure if it would get cancelled if it's heavy rain / storms?

Just with it being this time of year wasn't sure if it would get cancelled if it's heavy rain / storms? Definitely not cancelled, would just mean a really slippery skid pan. Bring a poncho and umbrella, we haven't cancelled one yet!

emts Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 all wet weather does is take the advantage away from those 300+kw track cars. and those with a bit more road orientation have much much more chance. oh and cheating evos as well.

Birds Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Would not mind slightly wet skidpan, it's usually fun when there's one or two puddles but not completely soaked I don't have a handbrake to slide and my guards aren't liking full lock at the moment Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/457759-entries-open-sauvic-deca-25th-july-2015-shepparton-its-back/page/2/#findComment-7568497 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odium Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 The back tracks have been modified since the last videos were taken, they've now got protective barriers between you and any hazard... It's 10 times safer for you and your car than any other real race track, haven't seen any real damage to a car in all the years I've been going...

You'd be surprised how well you can go time wise with these, just by taking them slowly...you end up beating everyone who hits a cone in the finishing gate and those who spin out / lose it. Take it at your own pace - you get an 80% run before your timed run; good chance to scope out how fast you wanna take it.
