Beer Baron Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 FCK YEAH! shame It's priced a bit rich for my blood. though I would guess the overheads of running an event like this at bathurst would be huge!

Kero Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 (edited) God I wish I could afford that Same!!! It would be the best 2 days ever You would have to go the sprintBathurst option, which starts from $4,900. So it is alot of cash!

Beer Baron Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 it's hard to justify. $5K could get me a lot of track days. but then again, it is bathurst. and I'd need a new set of tyres $2K, make sure the car is tip top. $1K. some spares $1K. travelling cost. $500. so we are talking near enough to a $10K weekend and that's providing I dont bin it coming out of the chase!

Kero Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 This will be history in the making; the full Mt Panorama Circuit has never been used for a Supersprint before.

evil_weevil Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Pitty we cant co-drive and share costs Theres the next best thing - speed weekend for the supersprint and then the hill climb around same time of year. I'll be 100% in that Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/174238-full-mount-panorama-track-day-opportunity-is-finally-here/#findComment-3197933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Baron Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 yes, but that supersprint and hill climb you speak of only use a small part of the circuit and you are going the wrong way. still good fun, but not quite in the same league. a friend of mine is running in a race meet at bathurst and told me their entry cost is $400. so with the $4600 left over maybe I can build a crappy car, and get my NC licence and enter that!

evil_weevil Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Oh I know the BB, But I mean you are still racing on the track which hardlky anyone else does, and for a shitload less!! Id rather do the sprint and hill climb 40 odd times than spend the rest on the other race! Oh, the hillclimb on the speed weekend is actually the correct way. Its mt straight and up that way They have other hill climbs through the SS's Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/174238-full-mount-panorama-track-day-opportunity-is-finally-here/#findComment-3198105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
benm Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 How come on the application it doesn't give me a choice of which cars they are providing me to drive..... For $4k i'd rather hire Oran Park myself and piss all over the main straight all day.

wizard Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 One of the guys on the Zed forum posted this, puts a different slant on it. "For that price it would be cheaper to fly to Germany and go around the Nürburgring. It costs 345 Euro to do 25 laps there and you could possibly hire a German sports car to do it in."
