Remember this up a driver dynamics run day

So they gotta pay for birds...

But in all seriousness they have pro drivers for driver training eg v8 super car drivers

much much less cars

So you get 20 min per hour

Much better than 3 sessions as wrx gave most of the day to the porka club

This

Having seen these days first hand, I would do one over regular track day anytime

So much more time on the track and spaced out

They do have some pretty well known V8 drivers there coaching; that's a pretty cool drawcard on it's own

I haven't flagged since I didn't turn up to the last one...completely forgot about it lol

Did said DD day. Had v8 supercar driver take my car out to show me its potential. Was shitting bricks as it was sliding towards the wall. He cooked my brakes and rotors. Full brake rebuild. Deff would do again but with proper pads/rotors

Thats the main thing I was laughing at, 20 minutes per hour with a bunch of cars which haven't ever been on a track before... They'll be driving hard and max out temps after 2 hotlaps.

HIGH possibility that they'll identify weaknesses in the car (as everyone does on the first 3-4 track days) or break something or even minor stuff like popping off cooler pipes due to sustained boost and heat. Std brakes/pads/oil cooler/ps boiling/tyres running out

Nek minit they've missed 3 sessions trying to repair a car in the pits and it's cost them $100 worth of the day.

Tell you what though, with the number of GTR's that are down there... Racepace should be there offering advice and guidance to them... So many potential new customers who are getting a taste of the track bug :D

Tbh, most of the guys that go down there are mx5 owners, M3-6 owners or s2000 owners with intake mods.

You get some amateur race teams trying to get some track time with added advice
