After four months of street driving, I'd like to give some track driving a go.

Is there any interest in going to Wanneroo for a day? I don't know what/how etc, and would appreciate some help in organising it.

Thanks,

Jason.

u'll needs cams approval a cams steward to over see the day, your looking at $100 plus per person for the day.

your best bet is to tag along on all fours and rotories next one thats if barbagellos raceway is still allowing them.

there was rumour they were stopping them due to damage to the track

but as Liz said Ken can answer your question in more detail.

AFARCC usually head to collie now days as to hire the track at waneroo was 2.2k last year, and i think its gone up again this year..

it costs about half of that to get collie, and hire the now needed ambo and fireys for the day..

in the end the cost saving goes to your cost, and IMHO collie is a more technical track than waneroo, i really enjoy going back to collie, waneroo while still fun is kinda boring..

collie are also all ok with drifto time..

ill let you guys know when the next one is..

Saturday July 17 is the next event at Wanneroo for the Enjo speed event series.

You only need a basic Cams license and helmet.The day is run with timing eqipment and 4-5 cars on the track at one time that are spaced out so you are running the clock.

WA sporting car club are the organizers.

motoring south west also run $10 track days which ar emostly drifter crew..

next one is onnnnn the 26th of june..

yeah collie is good, only costs $10-15 fee for whole day of you go on those days. here's an inspiring video of drifting from collie, last time i went and spectated. all the track time you could want. we were lucky, not many other cars at all that day.

    • Yeahhhh, the costs have killed me. Spent more than the cost of an engine rebuild and it most mostly servicing and a tune lol.
    • I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.
    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
