Hi Guys

I am organising another day at lakeside for the 30th of August :)

Format of the day will consist of 5 groups of 5 - 6 cars, doing sprints (staggered starts). 1 out lap, 5 hot laps and 1 in lap, with each driver getting about 20 hot laps provided there are no mishaps on the day.

This event is capped at 30 cars maximum.

As per usual, AASA licenses and appropriate head to toe clothing is a must. Towing and Medical will also be available on the day.

The cost is $140, or $150 if paid on the day.

First come first served :) Those who are interested can contact me either here, or on 0400 813 419.

Regards,

Ian

Ian,

Can you give me some info about obtaining the AASA licence please...

Thanks

Mike.

Hey mate. To obtain the licence all you have to do is fill out a form. Day licences are available but they are not economic if you are going to be doing multiple events, in which case a years licence is $55.

Hi everyone

I have finished putting together a small website for this event. It can be found at http://sprintbrisbane.dnsdynamic.com/Sprints.aspx

I have taken advantage of paypals API to provide credit card processing facilities for those who prefer not to do internet banking. It should also be a good place to go for further information about this event.

This event will make an excellent shakedown for anyone who is wanting to test prior to japnats. Cars on the track should be fairly minimal allowing you to get the most from your laps. There should never be any more then 6 cars on the track at a time.

Hey Ian,

I should be able to make the pushed back date. I will call you once I know for sure.

Cheers,

Ben.

No worries mate. Look forward to speaking to you :)

Hey yohoRB26

To obtain an AASA licence, all that is required is for you to fill out a form and to pay a small fee - There are two options available, a day licence which costs $25 and covers you for the day, or an annual fee of $55. I personally recommend people go for the yearly option as it is much better value for money.

The safety requirements are fairly basic. Obviously your vehicle must be in a safe condition, with no fluid leaks, particularly no oil leaks, but otherwise we have no special requirements for makings for battery, tow hook etc. On a personal note, you require a long sleeve shirt, full pants, and covered in shoes, along with a ADR approved helmet - otherwise, there are no requirements. The event is designed to be one which suits street cars, so mostly you just roll up, pay your fee, put on your helmet and on you go.

In regards to spots on the day, we should be able to accommodate you :)

If I can be of any further help, please ring me on 0400 813 419 or contact me via pm :)

Hope helps :)

Regards,

Ian

    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
