Superlap Oran Park.

[Rav]

Does any one know what time the doors open? Couldnt find any info on the superlap web page.

If you can help me big thank's. Need to start planeing my flight for the event. .

Hey Mick, last time from memory, I got there around 9.00am and it went to around 4.30 I think.

[Rav]

Thank's ben. .

So I'm thinking about entering. My question is to those who know my car and my driving abilities.

Would I be anywhere near the pointy end of the clubsprint class to make it worthwhile? Or should I keep the semi's on and just get slaughtered in open class?

I mainly want to go up there just for the fun of racing OP. Not too serious about it although I do enjoy racing on semi's. I suppose I would only do clubsprint class if I was going to be competitive.

If I was going for clubsprint what tyres are most people running? I've never bought good road tyres for my skyline.

thanks.

Edit: I've done 1:39s at Winton and 1:28s on 2nd hand semis if that's any indication. Also I've never even been to OP so it will be a new track for me.

Its purely related to the quality of cars. I am expecting to get slaugtered in Open or Clubsprint... it will make no difference. At least in Open with good tyres i find out what times my car can do.

So if your main motivation is to be competitive then sadly a GTSt wont do the trick in either class. You need an EVO with 30K spent on it or a GTR with 30k spent on it to be competitive in either class

But wont stop me from having bucket loads of loud fun!

[Belsil80]

purely do it for the fun. unless you want to race your wallet...

at the end of the day you will have a good idea where you stand but there is no chance the likes of us in our own cars will compete with the likes of those who were given drives last year.

avtar change hey troy?? a sign the rb20 is a memory??

[Russman]

Cool. That's what I wanted to know. Semi's and open is where it's at for me then. I want a time I can be proud of with no excuses. Sweet!

[HIZOKU]

I want to go but i doubt any of my cars would be ready

if some one needs a whore in the car im willing to come split fuel

[Roy]

avtar change hey troy?? a sign the rb20 is a memory??

Oh there is changes to my car but still have the RB20...lots of other things are changing I am going for less, power, less grip and more noise. Will feel WAY quicker

Not sure if this map will work, but check out where Oran Park is and then maybe search wotif.com.au for accomodation in some of the larger towns near there.

I'm planning to drive up and stop half way on the night before then travel straight home after the event.

Could someone please shed more ligfht on this event? Sorry i'm a noob to all these events and have just completed my application form for SAU-VIc and am awaiting a reply

Is it just an open Track day for SAU members or is it open to the General Public? Do we just do timed laps around the circuit and see what the best times are for each class?

or is it a race type atmosphere with qualifying then a final race at the end of the day?

And just lasty - how far is oran park drive from melvourne?

sorry for hte noob wuestions but my car is pretty much track ready and i would like to find out as much infomration as possible so that i can can compete in as many track days as possible.

Thanks in advance, guys!

If you're coming up and stopping halfway, there's a good place to stay in Tarcutta (which is about halfway). The return trip will take you 8hrs near the speed limit

[N1GTR]

Oh, also its not expensive at all

Thanks mate, I normally stop at Gundagai for the night whenever I head up for this or WSID meets, done it a few times now, the return trip isn't too bad in one stint at night because the roads are quiet.

[Phantom32]

thanks everyone for the replies and incredibly informative information. After reading all of that-i dont think my car nor i am preparedto race at that sort of level just yet. Have done a couple track days at Calder for both grip and drift and that was going back a few years.

So may have to give superlap amiss this year and go to f1 instead. In saying that tho, i will aim to makeit there next year after doing a f ew more tracks days with the new turbo and suspension setup.

so thanks guys for the info, and to all those doing the superlap - good luck and represent for the Vic click
