Skyline Vs Supra Track Day,

[Frink]

If it's a weekend, atleast two members will be keen... That is if it doesn't coincide with a drift day.

Will you be drifting or doing time attack? i know that for open days which are for circuit, the track marshal(s) dont tend to like it when your trying to drift the circuit when everyone else around you is going for out right speed. its kinda dangerous... im not trying to talk you guys out of it, but its an issue with i thought should be raised. i know you 31 boys like sticking your foot in it through a corner!!!

We could have a drift session... they did that for the Auto Sports and SAU track day, where the last session was a drift one. Could probably have a drift at lunch time? Its a thought.

[Frink]

yeah thats a good idea. a lot of organised track events do that. i was actually thinking more of just an open track day.... but yes, even i would take part in a small session of slide

Nah, Time attack is okay. Any track time is extra XP (experience points). We did it before on the AE86 festival day at wakefield. There were some "accidental" powerslides in some corners.

I heard Wakefield is resurfacing their track around now and wasn't going to be available till Feb/March or something.

[Frink]

Thats true, but it will be up and running again by early-mid Jan...

[BNR32t]

the track will also go up in price to hire next year.

a small drift season would be sweet,

I can't wait now, I had a little taste of wakefield last week (1.13) and I wanna shoot down some big guns,

I was thinking of bringing up the STOCK starlet with some semi slicks and really embarising some High HP supras

Not a bad time at all, similar to mine. Then again I'm going to have some flash new tyres for the next track day and hoping for some 1.10's

[a20089]

Well Wakefield has finally posted some costs and it looks like we will need a minium of 40 cars to just break even.

I'm still waiting on what kind of deal 5th gear can do us for organising it.

[Frink]

i think even we would struggle to get 40 cars from a variety of clubs. maybe we could throw down a challenge or something? jump on the other club forums and say something like; "SAU ACT is challenging all you other little pussies to a track day. if you dont show, your all gay and drive gay cars..."

Hi all,

There was mention of this day being help sometime in March but this won't be a good time for us Supra owners as most of us will be heading off to the Toyota Nationals over the Easter long weekend (20 March through to 24 March).

Unfortunately, the whole ACT club and 90% of our members will be attending this along with quite a few NSW members.

We will be holding a meeting in a couple of weeks to discuss our Calander of events and I will bring this up in the meeting.

Sorry about this, but I'm old and I keep forgetting shite.........

I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Cheers

Ross

Of course we are, you do drive Datsuns after all......... j/k

Isn't there something happening with Nissan group hiring out Wakefield for an annual meet as well? I only heard this the other day, which ended up reminding myself of our proposed event.

Damn straight, f**king fast ones

Yeh Dat Nats are on easter weekend, so wont be able to go for that either.

[Bullet32]

This sounds expensive... What are we looking at each for the day if we can only get about 15 - 20 cars maximum?

That is OK I was looking at running it after Easter anyway. I need final prices before I can look at dates in detail. So I expect to get final pricing next week.

[Michele]

If we give NSW plenty of time, there is a few there who like to travel to events and Wakie isn't too far for them.

We should be able to drag Doof, Corinne, Weevil, Liz, Wayne, Tinks at the very least, but feel certain we can pull a lot more cos they don't mind travelling and having fun.

Well Dereck has gotten back to me and it looks like we will run this soon after easter on a Friday for $150 a head.

Just waiting on an exact date. But given the information who's prepared to pay $150 for an early April, Friday track day run be 5th gear.
