**autosports** Eastern Creek Sat 28th March 2009


Recommended Posts

Howdy all...

Saturday 28th March 2009.

Now those of you in this scene who have been around for a while, will know that booking Eastern Creek is hard yards… getting a weekend date some say is “impossible” but we have been fortunate to infact secure a date for Autosports for March 2009.

We do infact have two other weekend dates for 2009 although I am not able to confirm the additional dates till after the New Year.

•The day is going to be run with official timing

•The day will have 6 driver trainers (including John Boston)

•Cost is $275 per driver

•There is strictly 70 positions with no exceptions

•14 cars per group max

•5 groups running 15 minute sessions

Gates open at 7.00am

We will have allocated pit garages for every position at no extra charge.

All drivers are to be ready for the on-track briefing which starts at 8.00am sharp. This will include your group infact driving onto the track with an instructor to infact stop and get out of the car and look at the various conditions for each corner… you will have the instructor explaining the best approach to apex’s and braking markers.

At 9.00am sharp the experienced drivers group will start their first session.

At 9.00am sharp the newbie groups will go into the upstairs rooms and receive further instruction about the track and how to get the most out of it as safe as possible.

By 9.20am the newbie’s driver training sessions upstairs will have finished and the second group will be out on the track.

We will run the group sessions all day and will not be stopping for lunch.

•Payment needs to be made within 14 days of booking or the position will be listed as available to others (we have to pay for the entire event upfront)

Now i know that March next year sounds like a long way away... considering that we have Christmas coming up, then the New Year break most people will not be back to work till Feb 09. I also will be out of the country from December 28th 2008 till January 31st 2009. I have to pay for this event upfront to suffice the desires of Eastern Creek management. I want to have this all arranged, booked and paid for so i am not going to be worrying about it come February next year.

Couple of other points;

1.Once positions are booked as stated above, I require payment in full within 21 days. If payment is not made the confirmed and reserved position will be cleared and offered publicly.

2.Should someone for any reason whatsoever not be able to attend after making payment, the position can be transferred but only after officially informing me personally so i can make sure the payment records are in absolute order.

3.Passengers are not permitted under any circumstances

4.Driver trainers are available to all patrons at no additional charge

5.Official timing is provided at no extra charge. Times will be recorded and posted up online before the end of the day

6.Spectators are permitted at no extra charge. No children under the age of 16 are permitted in the pit area without adult supervision.

7.All drivers must bring there own helmet and be wearing suitable closed in footwear as well as long sleeve shirts and pants.

I am absolutely stoked to be able to confirm this date... I want to make sure that the organisational aspects are first class so that i can secure more events for us at Eastern Creek.

Marty will probably ask me anyway as I am involved in the day.

The Radical should be allowed but not your car Michele, sorry.

Your car Michele is an open wheeler and is not allowed on the circuit with sedan cars. The Radical has all 4 wheels inside the body work :)

This is 90% certain but will confirm with the person who is putting there insurance up for the day.

Maybe i going blind but do you need cams licence and fire extinguisher?

Thanks Brad

no you dont need CAMS or fire extinguisher Brad.

Just a heads up folks... there is now only 16 positions left for this event.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
