I sent an email and got this in reply,

The CAMS Come and Try Day 2013 will consist of the following events:

- 1 hour of Supersprint which includes cars being sent out at different intervals, you will be competing against the clock and not anyone else. There will be a coach with you inside the car to teach you how to use the whole race track also. You may be able to get around 5-10 laps on the new South Circuit at Sydney Motor Sport Park

- 1hour on Motorkhana which includes a circuit being developed by Thornleigh Car Club who will be running that section and it’s a way to test your control over a car on wet and dry surfaces through some tough turns around cones and returning to the starting position, this is also a time trial based event. So you may also be able to get a few turns on this.

Keen to try the South Circuit but doesn't sound like there will be much track time

Pffft, for $30 it's way beyond a bargain! Do it, the things you learn when you take up an opportunity like this will FAR outweigh the cost.

If you really expect more track time when you're paying such a low entry fee, then you have no idea on what it takes to run an event like this. We, as a club, would love to run an official SAU-NSW event there, but we can't afford it.

:D

Exactly Nick, that's why I'm booked in for it. $30 to get on the track, with a coach is winning.

It's a come and try day, not a full on track day because they are trying to encourage people to Motorsport, not running it for those already involved.

Yeah that's true but more track time, more to learn :D

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

    • Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together.

If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
