... In your 34, of course...

[CrispyFries]

Have called it - cancellation requested

[billywhiz]

I'm still in and have a question, if friends want to come along have a passenger session, presume they don't have to pay $20, that's only for those who want to make use of the food etc.

[Odium]

I should probably get around to renewing my CAMS licence, huh?

Going to stick with my half shagged RSR's on the front even though I was understeering everywhere at Winton on them. Meh, it's a fun day... I'll buy new tyres for next year.

[ssxRicho]

$20 is for the food, passengers only need to sign the indemnity form and have correct clothing.

[Odium]

Do drivers need to pay the $20 for food? or will a drivers wristband get us some of that sweet wood fired pizza goodness...

email said wristband is provided (for food)

[gtr jet]

Yay, I better make sure I don't eat too much as a tend to make myself sick after eating and then racing.

[Leroy Peterson]

If the pulsar doesnt last the day i will be eating the admission fee worth of food

It's 80%, untimed, no minimum car weight, I'm definitely going for the breakfast, pizza and spit roast (the food variety)

I am a bit of a track noob, never been.

But this looks like a good event to come down and give it a go.

when do registration's close?

How does it all work? Are we sau members eligible for the discounted price?

[Leroy Peterson]

we pay full price, im assuming its still open unless full..?

are you an SAUVic (paid) club member?

you'll need a CAMS licence (or purchase one on the day), an approved helmet and a fire extinguisher mounted inside your car

[Booki]

Not a paid member tho,

Don't have a cams licence as never been to a track.

What is classified as a approved helmet? Ive got some moto helmets. dirtbike and road bike.

And negative on the fire extinguisher

My first track day was this event last year, it really is the perfect event to start out with Pretty cheap, 80% so nice and relaxed and noone will be going off into walls or getting angry with you for not being on the perfect racing line or getting in their way. And because it is passenger laps all day it's a great opportunity for someone with some track knowledge to jump in and guide you through it for a session or two

Cams licence is super easy to get, you can buy it via their website... think its $95
But you'll need to be a paid SAU VIC Member (or another CAMS affiliated club) member first

Fire extinguisher is simple, make a metal bracket and bolt it between your two passenger seat bolts. Bolt an Autobarn 1kg extinguisher with a metal bracket with metal straps (none of this plastic crap) to your seat bracket with high tensile bolts and washers. No tek screws or anything. Needs to be solid, and not going to come loose in a 50G crash

If your Road Bike helmet has current AU/NZ Approval Stickers on it (black and red and silver with the four ticks from memory) then it'll be fine.

As a general rule slicks are not allowed at Sandown for club days are they?
