    Default Drift practice day Saturday August 4th

    This day will run exactly like the other drift practice days in Tasmania. IE: Is NOT run as a CAMS event, thus not requiring the usual requirements such as a CAMS level 2 licence, pass CAMS scrutineers etc etc.

    WHERE: Baskerville Raceway

    WHEN: Saturday, August 4

    TIME: 10-4

    To make it clear this is NOT a competition, there will be no top 16, no judging just everyone going out and improving their drifting techniques on the track. Passengers WILL NOT BE allowed.

    Practice will be in the form of single car runs ONLY (ie. no tandems). Tandems are not allowed due to track insurance reasons. Basically there would be no insurance should two cars be drifting in tandem, because of this it is single runs only.

    There will be a drivers briefing at 9:45AM. ALL DRIVERS wanting to drive MUST attend this briefing before heading out on track.

    There will be 30 minutes at the end of the day designated for all drivers to assist in sweeping the track surface and edges to return it to an acceptable condition. ALL DRIVERS MUST PARTICIPATE IN THE SWEEPING OF THE TRACK!

    REQUIREMENTS:
    The entry fee for this practice day is the same as it would be if you were going out to do some practice laps, which is $55 IF you are a member of a Motorsport Tasmania & CAMS affiliated car club such as the Hobart Sport Car Club or the Light Car Club of Tasmania. IF you are not a member of such club the fee will be $90.

    The fees are to be paid on the day.

    SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:
    ADR approved helmet
    long sleeve shirt (flame retardant)
    long pants (flame retardant)
    appropriate foot ware (doesn't have to be race boots or cover the ankle)
    and a general road/track worthy car

    NOTE- (IF THE REQUIREMENTS IN BOLD ARE NOT ADHERED TO A ONE WARNING SYSTEM WILL BE IN PLACE SO ONE WARNING THEN YOU'RE OUT OF ACTION FOR THE REST OF THE DAY)

    The following safety items are recommended, but not 100% required:
    fire extinguisher and metal bracket
    battery and tow indicator (stickers)
    secondary bonnet restraint

    ANY competitor will/can be asked to leave the track if found not following instructions of the day or doing the wrong thing that would danger themselves and others.
    This can and will result in the person being banned from the track and future days.

    For further details or clarification of anything written in this thread feel free to PM me.

    Cheers.
    Ben

    PLEASE NOTE- IF YOU DO NOT ASSIST IN THE SWEEPING OF THE TRACK AT THE END OF THE DAY AND ARE NOT GIVEN AN EXEMPTION TO DO SO THEN YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NEXT PRACTICE DAY.

    PS. TURN 3 WILL BE OPEN FOR DRIFTING!!

    Cool, I'll probably come watch, my swingarm bushings are like play-doh at the moment, so I wouldn't like my chances of drifting
