    Talking Wakefield Park Track Day - Friday 20th of June!

    Cost is $180 per car, we run a limited number of cars (30) so you pay per car and can cycle as many drivers through one car as you like, it's open track all day with 10 on circuit and a one in one out basis. I currently have 12 spots reserved for Toymodders, and can usually grab a couple more if we fill these up quick enough.

    All the usual info, thursday and friday at the pelican to talk shit and drunkenly exaggerate, bring CAMS or valid driver's licence, helmet, neck/wrist/ankle length clothing, sleeping bag, pillow and beverages if staying (accom is about $20-25/night depending on numbers).

    When you commit to coming, i will PM bank details to transfer to (even if you've transferred to me before, there's a new mortgage and so new bank accounts), then when i see the coin i will add you to this CONFIRMED list;

    1. me
    2. nathan
    3. GriZZly
    4. ness
    5. geoff
    6. greg
    7. linden
    8. whitchy
    9. justen
    10. brendan
    11. (scott d)
    12. joel
    13. mick
    14. blake
    15. greg w
    16. (ed)
    17. scott
    18. matt
    19. rodger
    20. cuzzo

    And the WAIT List is currently 2 people.

    Numbers for the Pelican;

    Thursday: me, greg, griZZly +1, brendan, blake, matt, nathan (+1?), linden (+1?), adam, scott
    Friday: me, griZZly +1, (brendan?), (blake?), matt, nathan (+1?), (linden +1?), scott

    I'm in!!!!

    and thanks for the PM, I've had my eyes waiting for this exact thread to come up again

    refresh my memory - there's no charge for extra drivers is there? it's only a per car basis?

    nah, I figure I'll just drill some big holes in my front bar, that way I can just evenly distribute gravel all over the track

    I'm a no (but with a slim chance) right now.

    Engine is starting to show a few signs of wear and I'd like to it survive long enough for me to get a car to tow it with... there are negotiations in place right now with the Mrs to replace her car with something with a little more guts than the current 1L suzuki swift

    Kind of disappointing as with starting the new job in July it was perfect timing for me.

    No progress for over a month
    Grand Prix, Holiday, and working on the GT4 after the holiday.

    but all that is caught up so the only excuse i reall have from here on in is slackness.

    Cheers Garth, I am really only cut about the whole silent auction and underhandedness of the whole thing but it'll work out for the better no doubt.




    I think we should be wayyyy down on the ambient temps we saw at the last track day, no doubt it'll be the more customary sub zero and blowing a gale

    that'll be much nicer.

    sleep deprivation + heat exhaustion do not make for a fun driving combo

    We went through one of those; prime spot, best place we'd seen by far, saw it the 1st sat, before it went public listing, rang monday morning to put an offer in to find there's already 2 others and it's gone back and forth 3 times and is 50k up, so it's going to sell but they decided they wanted to be fair to everybody interested, so did a 'best offer in by 5pm tuesday' thing. And you had to exchange by 5pm friday!

    So we figured get the place tuesday, then figure out if we want it and try and sort by friday, anyway we bid, it ended up going for more than 70k over the 'offers over' price, and we missed out by $1800.

    Thing is too, it wasn't as high as we could go, and we'd been trying to decide to offer what we did or 5k more... Ended up not throwing another few k and missing the place. And when you're spending several hundred thousand you sure as shit don't miss the last few if you get what you want.

    Anyway, it wasn't perfect, none of them ever are, we've got one now for a lot less, with a good backyard for the dogs, which the other place didn't have. But it did have a much better garage setup.
