hey guys this would be my first club sprint day, would I be better off signing up for the driver training? Will there be instructors at the track? Do I still get the same amount of laps? Sorry I was going to ask these questions on the WRX forums but it seems my username hasn't been activated yet.

I haven't done a circuit driver course either and don't want to be getting in everbody's way if I sign up for the sprints... am I being paranoid?

mate the best thing id to do the driver training cos then at least you get to see what the track like and not have the problem of some of the fast car come up from behind and you blocking them and them getting pissed .

so my advice would be to do the training.

Looks like there will be a few training so you wont feel out of place at all.

also if you need help with anything there are many people who will help.

how late can you sign up for this?

I havent recieved any info from SAU or CAMS regarding my licence i signed up for at the drift day last weekend, so dunno my CAMS LIC#, also have 2 things to do to my car to make it track ready, and dont wanna pay an then not be able to run due to not passing scrutineering.

if I'm not at this one, i'll be at the next one. Best I do DT first go too, as havent done a track day on 4 wheels before.

Its up to you but i dont think driver training is a must. Its not a bad idea, i took Snowman with me my first time out...it was really good as after listening carfully to every word he said i knew exactly what not to do :D

I think its a good idea as you at least get some pointers on the layout at the track.

And at the end of the day, even the seemingly simple things like how to turn the steering wheel, we are all different and whatever is comfortable to you...but there are some bad habits that ppl bring to the track which may catch you out at speed.

When you paid SAU for CAMS license you would have got a CAMS 30 days receipt and that will do.

It is a wrx club requirement that you do DT if you have not done any track work previously.

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
