SAU NSW - Social - Hyper Karting - Saturday 30th July


Recommended Posts

Yes, that's right! Here by popular demand - we're going go-karting!

Many of you had enjoyed our Aqua Golf event, and had asked for more and different social events, so here we are!

And what better way to hang out, have a laugh, and have some friendly competition than to go go-karting.

BUT, we wont just be going to any old go-karting venue - we're going to head to Hyper Karting in Moore Park!

So without any ado, here are the details:

 

Date: Saturday 30th July

Location: Hyper Karting - The Entertainment Quarter, Level 5 Car Park, 207 Park Road S, Moore Park, NSW 2021

Meet Time: 4:30pm, for a 5.00pm start

Location: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Hyper+Karting/@-33.8949918,151.2259721,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x68fc1506e75534f!8m2!3d-33.8949918!4d151.2259721

RSVP: Please send us a message to let us know if you'll be attending. Bookings need to be placed via Hyper Karting's website.

 

We'll meet at 4.30pm so that this gives everyone enough time to have a small chat, head in to Hyper Karting, and get ready to start racing.

The plan is to hang out and race from 5.00pm to 6.00pm, which is made up of 4x 15min sessions.

To make planning easy, we ask that you head to Hyper Karting's website to book a session (or multiple if you choose) for yourself. SAU NSW will NOT be booking out the track. If you choose to book for multiple sessions, please avoid booking back-to-back sessions.

To book your ticket, please head to the website below, and select any of the following sessions: 5.00pm, 5.15pm, 5.30pm, or 5.45pm. Please also double-check that you are booking for Saturday 30th July.

Hyper Karting's booking page: https://hyperkarting.com.au/products/220730mt?variant=41883678998688

IMPORTANT: Please ensure you read Hyper Karting's terms and conditions on the above link, as there are various requirements for things such as clothing, height, weight, etc. Tickets are non-refundable by Hyper Karting, so please ensure you have read these terms prior to booking.

As this is a social event, and we're heading to Hyper Karting to have some fun, we ask that when booking your spot(s) on Hyper Karting's website, you select the "STANDARD" race.

IMPORTANT: At all times, please make sure to follow any and all instructions given by the staff at Hyper Karting. Should you fail to follow their instruction, causing any trouble or injury, you'll be asked to leave.

After we wrap up from go-karting, we can head downstairs to the Entertainment Quarter for a bite to eat and a laugh about our karting antics!

This is an official SAU:NSW event.

One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.

When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to:

• Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly.
• Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should.
• Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly.
• Any misbehaviour will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.

Thanks everyone, and hope to see you all there!

We ended up booking for four of us for 5.30pm and 6.15pm. See how it goes.

Hey mate,

We have had that feedback to that a few of the sessions are already booked. We will try and keep most of those sessions together as much as possible but if you want to get a few extra in by all means you can book the other slots. We will still be hanging around that particular time. 🙂

Yeah, they seem to be filling somewhat quickly. I don't really see a good way of keeping it together for a group.

Or are you thinking to book it on the day when there?

This was great fun! I was a bit sceptical about electric gokarts but it really scratched the right itch. Feels good once the higher power levels unlock. A bit noisy in the venue which is ironic considering that the karts are silent.

We are actually going to be back on Sunday morning to work on those lap times. With the 20% off from the code on the wristband and off-peak times it ends up being ~$24 for a session which is much more reasonable. If anyone is interested in going again feel free to get in touch. It's pretty local for us and I'd like to do a bit more of this.

Some photos from the day:

Ronald borrowed one of the phone mounts that they lend out. Short clip with somewhat Naked Gun intro vibes.

Not really any car photos. Not sure where people parked. We just came across Sam on the way in. So there's two chubby Nissans.

Wow super awesome Pics & Video David! I still am yet to go through the GoPro footage. But it was definitely a blast! I would 100% say it would be better to do it at off peak times to get some more sessions in. They definitely aren't as quick as they petrol karts but they were surprisingly easy and fun to drive.

    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
