Wakefield Park 300

i think someone who can steer could get my car down into the 10s, it would be nice to get some feedback from someone with experience also. if your short a car let me know Duncan, ill have to re-mount seat for you but was going to do that anyway.

Just have to organise logbook.

Don't worry about the 10s stu, your car will be good for an 8 or 7 once it is sorted and yuo get some seat time.

Why not enter this? Your car is very well prepped and should be fine to last the distance. All you'd really need is a practice day down there beforehand to get the hang of the place. Their open days are cheap, and you'd get plenty of laps

i guess its a bit of a confidence thing, i was pretty messy last time and it rattled me a bit, still would like someone else to have a steer just to get some ideas on how it feels from a different pespective.

If i can get a logbook sorted and the boys are happy to have me along id have a go.

In any case we all need a practice day down there before hand....need to work on logistics, car changes, strategy etc.

Just to clear a few things up, the Wakefield Park 300 is a enduro race held on the 29th of November.

Cost is $600 per team

A minimum one pit stop with no set time.

Only one car per team can enter with up to four drivers. Most run two or three drivers depending.

Fuel stops are carried out in the dummy grid unless you have dry brake systems which then allows for refuel at your pit garage. The car can be kept running to accomodate turbo cars with a requirement of having two fire mashals on hand.

Either CAMs, iRace or ASSA car can enter.

Licence can be CAMS or ASSA.

This is open class racing with classes based on times as opposed to classes to eliminate the hassle of parity etc.

Adam Ronke has a three care team competing which includes a R33 GTST which has been built specifically for these kind of events.

Two SW20 Mr2's will be entered, EVO's, MX5turbo's and NA's, a 300hp Pug, commadores, and more.

the regs are evpected this week so get you entry in ASAP as it looks like it will be a full field.

thanks for the update!

2 questions...

1 is the refueling in the dummy grid just from a churn while the clock is running?

2 what price to rent a daewoo for the day?

[gtstcruiser67]

There are no timed fuel/pit stops this year due to a regulation change.

If you have a dry break system you can refuel at your garage. If you do not have dry break you must refuel in the dummy grid.

As far as the daewoo goes, I expect they will be close to $900 for the weekend with the best person to talk to being Adam Ronke at Winton as he is organising the lease options. He has tuned the cars since you have driven the Daewoo with a reasonable performance gain so they should go OK.

lol so 55fwkw now? I think they are a good option for this event, particularly in the new format. My car is racing weekend before at phillip island and week after at buller so I am not going to enter it......but the might woo is a geniune option.

good work keeping this event alive, it is a blast.

assuming the format is the same next year, I will make sure we get dry break system fitted to my car (one of the few freedoms in cams 3e I haven't done yet) and bring it along. I can't see a car without that winning, no matter how fast it is the pit stops will just take too long
