    Default MR2 Trackday Challenge Jan 2013

    Hi,
    In co operation with MR2 NSW, I'm putting together a two day event at Wakefield Park on 13th-14th January 2013.
    The event is called the MR2 Trackday Challenge.
    It has been developing on the Mr2 Australia forum sites to a point where I decided to bring it to the Toymods forums.
    The plan is to bring people who would not normally go to the track together with people who enjoy trackdays and those who enjoy competition.
    The MR2 NSW club will be organising a cruise to the track, show and shine, photo sessions while a team will be servicing the on track activities.
    The track will be divided into competitive and non competitive events with competitive being the main focus.
    Competitive will be the MR2 Trackday Challenge.
    It will basically be a 5 round, round robin using 3 with a yet to be confirmed 4th layout within the Wakefield Park circuit.
    Hillclimb/Short circuit, special stage, long circuit. Each round will be points scored. Scores will be accrued for an overall winner for the event as well as class winners.
    Classes will be street under 2.5 ltr/over 2.5 ltr, open under 2.5 ltr/over 2.5 ltr and invitational class.
    Trophies will be awarded for each class and the overall winner.
    A nights accomodation for the entrant will also be included.
    Garage allocation will also be included for the first 26 paid entries.
    Non competitive will include untimed sessions, cruise laps, photo session ontrack after 6pm, night cruises and more yet to be confirmed.
    Please send an email or join the facebook site if you're keen on coming along
    Cheers

    Well it would be great if you can make it. There is interest from 30 MR2's from up and down the East Coast and South Australia so it will be a great event to finally see a whole bunch of MR2's on the track competing against many other Toyota's and other makes.
    There will also be a few 86's, the LFA will confirm entry in the near future, a V8 Soarer sports sedan, Altezza production race car and more. Expect to see some Nissans,Mazda and Lotus will make an appearance too.

    Just an update.
    I have written the disclaimer and regs last night. Just need to sort out application forms and the pack is ready to go. The site is registered and hosted but no content as yet. Expect to have it online this week.
    Im looking for a few volunteers for scrutineering, marshalling, bbq. I can offer a night accomodation for volunteers who are not entering the trackday or are simply driving in the social driving sessions . Four are needed.
    Once the applications are available, I will post to all people who sent email so they have the opportunity of having first option with the garages.

    Pricing is confirmed at $370 for trackday challenge entrants, $170 for social sessions, $40 for passengers. More details available in the information pack.
    The photo session has also been approved. This is a opportunity for everyone entering the event to have access to the track from 6pm till dusk to use any part of the track for photo shots. Speed is limited to 30kph as pedestrians are using the track while car move to their prospective locations for that 'shot'.
    Also provides the opportunity for people who have never been on the track to have their car on track without any pressure of driving to show,shine and gather some pictures.
    If requested, people not entering but which to have join in the photo shoot can send an email to make allowances. This is aimed at MR2 owners who have done a day cruise and arrive in the afternoon can enter the track for the session.
    Im planning to work on it more tonight after trying to get the car up and running.

    Regards

    Steve

    Its only early days yet. There are few who have emailed with interest so will see how we go. Chances are there will be a few quick ones and one or two V6 versions too.

    Hope to see you there. Will be a great few days away.
