Drift Practice Day- Saturday Jan 6

[tas_180]

This day will run exactly like the first drift practice day in Tasmania. IE: Is NOT run as a CAMS event, thus not requiring the usual requirements such as a CAMS level 2 licence, pass CAMS scrutineers etc etc.

WHERE: Baskerville Raceway, details of the track and its location can be found HERE

WHEN: Saturday January 6

TIME: 10am-4pm

To make it clear this is NOT a competition, there will be no top 16, no judging just everyone going out and improving their drifting techniques on the track.

At this stage NO PASSENGERS! There is a slim chance this may change and SOME drivers may be able to take passengers at a specified time during the day, but this decision is out of my hands.

There will be a drivers briefing at 9:30AM. ALL DRIVERS wanting to drive MUST attend this briefing before heading out on track.

Practice will start at 10am and will be in the form of single car runs ONLY (ie. no tandems).

There will be 30 minutes at the end of the day designated for all drivers to assist in sweeping the track surface and edges to return it to an acceptable condition.

REQUIREMENTS:

The entry fee for this practice day is the same as it would be if you were going out to do some practice laps, which is $55 IF you are a member of a Motorsport Tasmania & CAMS affiliated car club such as the Hobart Sport Car Club or the Light Car Club of Tasmania. IF you are not a member of such club the fee will be $99* (to be confirmed).

The fees are to be paid on the day.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:

ADR approved helmet

long sleeve shirt (flame retardant)

long pants (flame retardant)

appropriate foot ware (doesn't have to be race boots or cover the ankle)

and a general road/track worthy car

The following safety items are recommended, but not 100% required:

fire extinguisher and metal bracket

battery and tow indicator (stickers)

secondary bonnet restraint

ANY competitor will/can be asked to leave the track if found not following instructions of the day or doing the wrong thing that would danger themselves and others.

This can and will result in the person being banned from the track and future days.

For further details or clarification of anything written in this thread feel free to PM me.

Cheers.
