    Sent off entry. Should be a good chance to see what Collie's all about, pick up some tips and perhaps get some ideas for a TECCWA event there in future.

    "The day is focused on giving the opportunity to those with no prior Motorsport Experience. It is not recommended for persons experienced with track time as the day will not be operated at competition speeds."

    Damn. Was so excited!

    Quite keen to see what Collie is like, learn as much as I can, and see what possibility there is for a TECCWA event sometime.

    CAMS only I'm assuming for proper events/hire?

    i'm on edge about getting my car rego'd in time. end of next week will hopefully fit new steering rack and exh with required clearance, then need to go over the pits again and pray they don't decide to pick on something new.

    also have st205 rears to put on hopefully prior with ADR braided lines.

    but my place is booked, worst case scenario my bro in laws sw20 goes "missing" for the long weekend.

    I have a few small things to check before being scrutineered next Friday afternoon, but should be good.

    Looking forward to seeing how I go around a track, albeit not at full pace, which probably suits me at the moment.
