    It means we don't want people pushing themselves or their car beyond 80%, I know that sounds a bit weird, but if we tell people to "go for it", all hell breaks loose.

    We can tell if people are outdriving themselves and they get a warning, if they don't improve they are removed from the track.

    Quick question...

    How thorough is the Helmet inspection on a fun day?

    The reason I ask is the Helmet I have on lend isn't in the best of condition, and wouldn't want to come all the way and get knocked back on that...

    They will check it for dents, bruises etc, but it MUST have an Australian Standards 5 ticks sticker on it. Normally light scratches are OK.

    Ian, the 22 is Shannon's, aka 'kool22'. This is his track car. I think he purchased some wheels off you recently?

    ...geez your not wrong about too many people......there seems like there was more cars on the track than in the carpark
