I'm sure r tyres are considered road tyres...but we all know they are immoral even if they are not illegal

Guys, and Gals.

If you don't feel comfortable taking your car out on the track, why not come along and learn to be a flag marshal. You get to see the action from the other side of the fence, up close. You can watch how people take various lines through the corner that you're at. And its a GREAT photo spot.

If you can help - and we need the help - PM me, or email:

[email protected] or [email protected]

If anyone wants a copy of the supp regs and entry form e-mail me and I'll forward a copy.  All the requirements are detailed in the supp regs:

I went to CAMS on thursday to renew my licencs (expires 30/9) and they advised I should have the new one well before the event.    I believe that licences will also be available on the day, but check with the NDSOC to be sure (Greg: if you read this please confirm).  As indicated you also need to be a member of a CAMS affiliated club.

Personally I wouldn't bother with the CAMS book, but it can be useful if your planning on doing some actual races.

The max entries for the event is 120 - I'd get in early to be sure.

Supp Regs can be downloaded from the club's website - ndsoc.com.au.

Yes, Steve, there will be licence applications available on the day. And you can join NDSOC on the day as well, although if you're a member of SAU, then that will count.

Does SAUV and CAMS accept CC transactions?

I will sign up for both.. but need to CC as I only have $25 dollars in my transaction account

CAMS accepts CC - there's a place on the licenc app form for CC details, see the link to the form in one of my posts above.

I have sent my application form to CAMS today for LS2 licence. How long wil it take to get the licence approved? Will I make it in time? I shuold have the car registered and so on by then.

If you haven't heard back from CAMS by the week of the event (ie October 12 0r 13), ring CAMS and ask them to fax confirmation to you.

(If you don't have a fax, PM me for my fax number)

I would suggest you get your entry in as early as possible. This is a popular event, and could easily fill up before the day.

Great! but I think SAU-Vic only accept cash/direct deposit for the mean time...

(damn monthly pay!)

[heartbrkr]

what is supp reg?

>> My bad, you mean entry form thingie?

[Snowman]

Fooey - at this stage we (SAU VIC) don't have any facilities to accept CC.

Sorry mate.

I would, as i want to use this as a practice day for the Maserati day.

But i think my car is beign used as a dog kennel these days, until it gets an engine its about all its good for:)

I have to be in SA next weekend, so praying its ready for the trip, otherwise i have to fly and use a hire car which is fine but they will fly me in Mon morning and back Fri night so i dont get a chance to enjoy two weekends in Adelaide.

Should be a good chance to put an easy 1300kms on the new engine and throw a few fresh sumps of oil etc at the engine

Short for "Supplementary Regulations" - it's basically the rules that will apply for the event.

Alright. Posted Cheque etc.

Still need to sort out Cams and bonnet restraints etc. Is Cams available on the day, or best to go direct now?

[blind_elk]

We will have CAMS L2S licence applications available on the day.

[Snowman]

Greg - I have been geeting a few calls / PM's asking about availability for this event still. Could you please update us?

Thanks.

[rs73]

Sounds good... I'm in....

Thanks.

Still plenty of places left. But please don't wait too long and flood me with applications at the last moment. Invariably, that leads to people missing out, and we don't want that.

Looks like my car will not be ready at this rate... have picked it up from engineer but no certificate.

Can I still drive on the track day if it has not been registered yet? It says something about it only being elegable for registration to race on the form?

I have sent in all forms and bought all my gear (helmet, fire ext.)

Yes, "registerable" is OK. The main problem at Sandown is noise upsetting the locals, so as long as the car meets noise restrictions (75dB(A) at 30 metres drive-by), then it will likely be OK.

[rs73]

noise restrictions (75dB(A) at 30 metres drive-by).

Noise limit is pretty much the same everywhere. Last HSVOC Track day @ PI also 75dB at 30m drive-by. That's I was told by one of the track officials.

yep, and even the v8 supercar with the side exit exhaust pointing at the noise meter didn't go ver
