South Queensland Division Director Wayne Downes has been voted onto the ANDRA Board at a meeting of Division Directors prior to the 2017 Annual General Meeting.
 
Held at Mawson Lakes Hotel & Function Centre in Adelaide on November 17, Wayne Downes will take a Division Director position for a term of three years.

South Queensland Division Director Wayne Downes added:
 

'It is both humbling and an honour to be elected to the Board of ANDRA.  I am looking forward to working with the other board members and all the ANDRA members to bring the sport of drag racing and ANDRA back to the forefront of motor racing.

I would like to thank my fellow Division Directors for having the faith and confidence in me to elect me to the ANDRA Board.'

Wayne Downes has taken on the position vacated by NSW Division Director Geoff Crisp on the ANDRA Board.  During the last year Geoff has worked tirelessly for the sport and all ANDRA stakeholders in what has been a difficult time in Drag Racing.   Geoff's efforts were acknowledged at the Annual General Meeting with Chairman, Nathan Pierano thanking Geoff for all his time and effort.

After coming to ANDRA in the position of CEO in 2016, before moving to a volunteer Board position in July 2017, Grant Goodall has chosen not to renominate to the ANDRA board.   The Board and management sincerely thank Grant for his invaluable input and the enormous amount of work put in during his time with ANDRA.

The ANDRA Board is made up of Chairman and NA Division Director, Nathan Peirano; WA Division Director Terry Jongen, SQ Division Director Wayne Downes, Grant Wilson who renominated for a further two years and Grant Hamon hold the independent positions and Peter Kapiris who filled one of the two casual vacancy positions on the Board at the 2016 AGM..

AEM Electronics CD-7 Digital Racing Dash Now Available at Summit Racing
 
Data logging information is only valuable if you can see it. AEM Electronics’ CD-7 Digital Racing Dash connects to your existing data logging system and shows you what’s going on with your car. It features a seven inch, full-color digital screen that is readable in all types of light—even direct sunlight—thanks to a glare diffuser and shade hood.

The CD-7 receives data from sensor channels via CAN bus connections—two CAN bus channels are included to receive and collect data from AEMnet-enabled devices such as the Infinity ECU, Series 2 EMS or EMS-4 engine management systems. The CD-7 can also be used with third party PDM’s, CAN sensor modules, and programmable engine management systems. AEM Electronics has a list of compatible devices on its web site: http://aemelectronics.com/?q=products/cd-7-super-bright-sunlight-readable-full-color-dash-displays
 
The CD-7 has seven ultra-bright LEDs on top of the display housing to indicate RPM and shift light activation. You can program them to ascend in specific increments based on RPM range, and flash when it is time to shift. Large buttons on the display face allow easy page changing and memory resetting, even with driving gloves on. The button functions are also duplicated on the rear connector so you can mount remote buttons on the steering wheel. Two additional programmable LEDs are located above the toggle buttons on the sides of the housing.
 
Summit Racing offers the CD-7 in four versions. All have a water-resistant cast aluminum housing with sealed connectors and anti-vibration mounts:
• Display only
• Display with AEM’s Vehicle Dynamics Module (three-axis accelerometer, three-axis gyrometer and 5Hz GPS + GLONASS for track mapping and chassis tuning)
• Display with a built-in data logger (800 channel capability, 200 Mb of internal memory, and a 100/second maximum data sampling rate)
• Display with data logger and Vehicle Dynamics Module
