finally got my camber bolts from the states today. I installed 1 as a test, I started with 1 degree camber and after the first set I got 2.5. So if you install them top and bottom I cant see why you would not get 4 degrees plus. PM if your keen on a set, bare in mind they take about 2 weeks to get here. ( I might see how much extra for express postage) ill take a set.. how much are they?? anyone else keen to get in on a group buy to sav on postage?? |

We did a hillclimb at Mt Cotton a few months ago and it was a great day. |

if there's that much hassle and cost, then i won't bother im happy with lakeside/qr If we can organise day licenses again it might not be too bad, Probably $100 odd dollars plus the day license cost about $30 You would also need a fire extinguisher in the car If we limit it to about 70 cars should get 6+ runs in the day. |

To do circuit racing (over the sprints) you basically need to be cams compliant anyway, and its not a whole lot more to do really. |

The issue is for the guys with roll cages, the ones who ahev pulled dashes out and a few other issues. To do circuit racing (over the sprints) you basically need to be cams compliant anyway, and its not a whole lot more to do really. I'd be keen to run mt cotton again, and as you can double/tripe enter it easily all of us would get a fair few laps. Jeff, you were talking about trying to run it under AASA? is that still a option? otherwise CAMS is fine, I've got my licence for it so may as well use it at least once.... Knowing MGCCQ I doubt they would run it under AASA but who knows. To do the circuit racing there is a difference between AASA and CAMS. Under CAMS if your car has a cage you then need to get that cage passed and you have to have the vehicle log booked so you are looking at a few hundred to do that assuming the car passes requirements. |

yes MGCCQ want us to use CAMS, thats the only thing stopping me holding a couple more hillclimbs there this year. |

a standard excel dash is probably more dangerous i think foam is a much better idea and safer all Hyundai dashes are fucked and brittle |

its not for impact.. so brittle doesn't mater.. as your held in by a harness/belt.. its for your limbs that are flinging around the cabin.. to prevent them slaping up against shit behind the dash |

Part of the reason that I keep harping on about the Dashes is Liability. |

Who would like to drive on this circuit ? Its on the northern part of the Gold Coast *PIC* OMG yes Yes YES YES Umm, I mean, sure I'd love to have a drive on that. I can see a few configurations that would be ALOT of fun. I've looked at the mt cotton driver training track too and wished they would allow racing on it :\ Also Great news about the tyres. Assume Federal have a windscreen banner or some other promo/advertising stuff they would give us? |

Assume Federal have a windscreen banner or some other promo/advertising stuff they would give us? the ability for a few configurations certainly is good. what would be good in this series are some left hand turns there's only 1 at lakeside and a couple at QR (depending on which track) everything else is right hand turns...(lefthand side tyre wear!) |

are there many people sing single cams?? or mainly all twin cams? Mine is a single. HEY STEVE, What issues did you guys have with scrutineering for the circuit racing. I seem to remember you mentioning tow hooks ????? anything else ? Thanks Jeff |

Tow hooks needed to be proper ones, not just the tie down points we were going to use. - they let it slide, but said we have the possibly of ripping it straight off. I dont see how as the car is ~850kg, unless they go full throttle trying to pull us out of the sand. |
