Time Attack 2 - Barbagallo

[Skysthelimit]

hey guys,

Came across this event in another forum, & looks interesting so thought I'd put it up here incase people were interested:

Time Attack Battle 2010 - Barbagallo - October 29th 2010

When and Where

Barbagallo Raceway – Wanneroo - Friday October 29th. Scrutineering will start at 5pm, the first cars will be on the track at 6pm and all lapping will be completed by 10:00pm. For full details of the timetable, you can review the Supplementary Regulations.

What

The format will be pretty much the same as the last event. You will have many opportunities put in timed laps of the track, and your fastest lap will determine your overall place and your place in your class. There will be 9 classes and each class winner will be rewarded with a trophy. Besides a trophy per class, there will be trophies for the top 3 overall and also an award for the ‘Driver of the Day’. The same ‘big screen’ results display will be back, including live SMS messages of your times.

Further details: http://raventechracing.com/index.htm?page=...mp;sub=29102010

"Just to clarify spectators are free, full regulations are on the RR website under events for those who'd like to enter and restore some pride to the Nissan badge, food is being provided for competitors so spectators will have to eat grass, roadkill ala wanneroo or used tires."

They obviously haven't advertised well as this is the first I've heard of it

My car won't be ready by then, but would still be fun to go and watch

We are trying very hard to get the word out about our events, but it is proving difficult. If you have any suggestions on how to promote the event please let me know.

Hi Michael,

I did notice there is a link on the WASCC Site, but I definately agree that the Car Club Forums are often the best way to get the message out to a large audience. There are a number of serious time-attack cars tucked away around Perth, and I'd hate for people not to see them cause they didn't know about it. Have you contacted the guys at No Limits, SCRA etc ?

Cheers

Paul,

We have got this on quite a few forums, but we are trying to get it up on more everyday. We need help from the people in the community (like yourself) to spread the word as most forums won't let us start a thread without paying big $$$'s to become a site sponsor. We should have posters and flyers down at Wheels World by the end of the day.

We would love to see all those hidden away time-attack cars come out to play . The Skyline community will be well represented by several of our competitors.

I don't think that the guys from No Limits would be too excited about helping to promote this event, as I'm sure this will be seen as competition for them (althought it isn't).

Hi Michael,

I'm starting to spread the word to a number of people who are likely to be interested, and will also have it sent out to the SAUWA Members in our email updates. We don't want events like these to die through a lack of visibility, as WA could definately do to have more motorsport events.

Cheers

All car club forums such as this, WRX Car Club, HSV Car Club, FPV Car Club, MX5 Car Club etc along with flyers at shops like Wheels World, such as Tech 9 Tyres, etc together with Performance Work shops like X Speed, Garage 101, Fabcar Racing etc would be a great for extra visibility to your audience.

I agree that we need to make these sorts of events occur more often here in Perth, as compared to what happens in Melbourne, we don't have anywhere near the level of events like these, even though our performance car scene is just as large, if not larger.

Good luck and hope to see you there at the event.

There is plenty of people who do track stuff, including myself, but most of those events have dedicated forums, i.e. IPRWA, SCRAWA, No Limits etc.

I know a number of people entering the event, should be a good night.

OK fair enough...No Limits is one of the best entry level track nights, I've sung its praises on here, only missed a couple of nights in the last 2 years & reckon I've seen a few Skylines at best apart the usual suspects, done Shannons, Fabcar, Transcore etc and only a couple of Skylines and not from here..

IPRWA & SCRAWA look like they are for striped out race cars ?

Am I missing out on other events that everyone on here are doing ??

By the way I'll see you at the "Time Attack" just entered,, street class AWD

I created this thread, in order to assist people getting into Motorsport, any input you can provide is welcome.

Only event you didn't list was the Speed Event Series.

Will try and catchup with you at Time Attack, best of luck. Are Gav and Chris also entered in the Street AWD Class ?

I hope their not, I would've thought both of them would be running semi's, so not sure if thats "Limited" or "Unlimited"

Yeah havn't done the Sped Event Series yet..

I'll keep a look out for you, you'll be in a GTS? what colour?

You're right, they will be running R-spec, so that will push them into "Unlimited" by the look of the Sup Regs.

Nah, my car won't be there, it's off getting a cage installed, and is race only anyway. Post a pic of your car and I'll come find you.

If you mean Gavin Beer and Chris Reynolds, then no, they are not entered (yet). I am still hoping that they will. If they were to enter in their cars in the same spec as the April Time Attack then they would both be in "Limited AWD". Running R-spec tyres, by itself, doesn't push you into the "Unlimited" classes.

[Raventech Racing]

It's ok to enter in 'race only' cars. Provided you're not running full slicks, pretty much anything goes in the "Unlimited" classes

Thanks for the clarifications

I'd enter myself, but I don't believe my cage will be completed in time for the event.

sent Gav a text, he's entering today and will remind Chris, hope their running semi's, don't want either of them in my class .

here's a couple of pics. looks like this except she's wearing R34 GTR rims, and sporting a TO4Z not the big Turbonetics
