It's a grip prac day, more than likely with karts aswell. So cars do 1 session then karts etc etc. I don't think its cams so basically its the same as our SAU track days. Thats my understanding of it.

[Damo_R34]

you still need a cams license for it, they offer the usual $25 day license. 3 groups from what i remember, race guys, normal guys and kart guys, so basically you get the track for 20mins every hour. Its around the $100 mark for a prac day IIRC

Make sure you get there early as there is limited cars in each group, I've seen spots fill up and people miss out a couple times. I'am pretty sure gates open at 9am and cars on track from 10am. make sure you check your fluids and brakes!

I was there, surprised how many cars attended considering the Footy Grand Final was on.

I had a resonable day. Got to test out my side pipes which made more difference than I expected. Car ran .3bar more boost at the same setting. I blew my intercooler pipe off 6 times which kept my sessions prematurely short. I found having my oil/air separator filter over the rear turbo was not a great plan...read James Bond style smoke screen.

All in all it was a good day as nothing broke.
