Heathcote Park Raceway

[adis]

Hey guys,

Wondering if anyone is keen to run their car or come up for a look.

Supra Club is heading up so there should be a fair bit of jap cars to see run.

Whoever is interested, we could all set a meet up location and cruise up together.

Hopefully this thread is not a "fail" and few people jump on board!

They want $60 for Heathcote now?

Oh man...

[adis]

They want $60 for Heathcote now?

Oh man...

I know!!!

Seems like everything is going up except my pay. Haha

[R31Nismoid]

Yer i know, my pays gone backwards

I'd not have an issue paying $60 @ Heathcote if it was properly prepped.

Tis a long way to go for a unprepped track that's running the same surface as it was laid 30 odd years ago.

Not HC are charging $60 - Calder is suddenly reasonably priced and you get a prepped track in good condition... Not the best, but the best in the state lol.

ENOUGH!!!!

-you are putting people off, now no-one wants to come... lol

Anyway, some positives of heathcote track=Never too busy so you can run your car as much as you like

[R31Nismoid]

Oh look Heathcote has it's place. Not saying it's bad dude.

I've raced there more than I've raced @ Calder over the years and it was good value under the old owners.

I remember Paul has like 25 or 30 runs on SAU Drag Day we had up there - that was surely worth some sorta prize.

It's like DECA... When they forecast rain - it never actually does

I've been to HCote maybe 5 times when its raining in Melb, and for 40mins of the drive.

Get to the track and it's dry and ready for racing!

[adis]

Oh you were the guy with the s15? Hope it isn't too bad :s

I was actually surprised at mine didn't have any problems and was very consistent in the 12s slowest was a 13.1 but had issues often with speed limited.

By 3pm I was just doing back to back runs

[adis]

I know you did well. Smashed all the precious supras haha
