Sau Track Day Oran Park November 22

[Abo Bob]

In association with RENEW, the Rotary guys, we are having a track day at Oran Park Grand Prix on Tuesday November 22.

Yes I know tuesdays aren't that great but we have secured a good price and I've been told there are no weekend spots available until late 2006!

$215 for members and $230 for non members

Aaron McGill from Auto-Motion is hosting the day and the normal price is $275 so there is a decent saving to be had.

Please post your interest in here. I will be calling for deposits and entry forms when I get around to it.

Now closed to further entries.

Yeah, Aaron mentioned his next OP day was november. It will be awesome Aaron runs a top day and OP GP circuit is I reckon probably the most fun circuit in NSW.

My only problem with this day is that it's so late in the year and I'm not keen on thrashing in hot weather... hmm tough choice.

[Abo Bob]

Bah!!!!

It's not that hot in November. You've got the coolers and the gauges so you are ready to go.

[Duncan]

Don't miss this one if you can make it, Oran Park GP is a great track and FAR more interesting than the short track that we normally get

[Silver-Arrowz]

Me me me! I was here first!

[Abo Bob]

Good to see some interest. We need about 7+ people to make this happen.

[igor]

I m in.

[B-Man]

i'm keen

[Abo Bob]

That's 5ish counting Duncan. Looking good.

Get Nick and Richard to pull their fingers out.

i am just quietly thinking away...dum de dum dum.

Never fear, when it get's closer to the date 30% of the entrants will suddenly remember they have left the stove on that day and I shall ease my fat bod into their spot. noice.

You know better than to try and gee up nick though, we all know he's soft...

[Abo Bob]

But of course if not enough people plonk their money down early the day will be cancelled entirely. It's the enternal conundrum.

Hehe, some good insight into event organising. Should send everyone PMs and say it's the last Oran Park day ever. Deal with the public backlash later.

yes indeed, you make an interesting point.

the last thing I want to do is encourage people to hold off on putting their hands up. those who know me know that i am mostly a good little vegie when it comes to fronting up for the trackdays etc. It's just that at this point i have some uncertainty on the horizon which I shall have to surmount before committing to the day.

It will be awesome though. Aaron really runs a trackday like no other.

[SiVaK]

Im very interested, ill find out if i can go by tuesday

,will we be able to do some drifting there at all? Plus all we need is the $215 and helmet right coz i havent been on oran park before so is it like wakefeild where you need to buy a licence?

[Duncan]

No license required for Oran Park, the insurance is organised by the Hirer and is included in the 215. Helmet, long clothes and safe car will be required.

And it is very likely Aaron would allow a drift session it would be best to talk to him on the day.

This is a great price for one of his days they are normally quite a bit more.....these are different to normal track days in that instructors are there and you can get some great help to improve your driving. Of course if you are already a perfect driver you have nothing to learn

Kel is intending to do her Observed License Test for a CAMS license on this day so we will have a chat to Aaron. Anyone who wants a full CAMS license should do the OLT as well....it is a race to show that you can drive quickly and safely on the track usually 5-8 laps with a standing start.

[Tommyk]

Sounds very interesting

But it is a long way away, and sometimes other things prop up, especially on a tuesday.

But I am interested nonetheless

[red900ss]

A track day at OP GP circuit? running it with the Renew guys? why wouldn't you go!?!

oh yeah 1 reason is work so won't know until close to the day.

Should be an excellent day, hope you get enough people locked in beforehand to ensure it happens.

[Beer Baron]

OMG Dino is alive!! I haven't seen you on here for a while!
