Mallala Practice Days

**takai** · 20-06-2006, 05:15 PM

Ok, since a lot of people have less of an idea as to when the practice days i thought it might be prudent to let people know what is up.

The next practice days are on the:
Friday 23rd June - Pre-Race
Saturday 1st July - General
Saturday 12th August - General
Friday 18th August - Pre-Race
Saturday 9th September - General

The pre-race ones are before a racing weekend, and will usually be made up of competitors for that weekend trying to sort out issues or get in last minute practice. So the pace would be somewhat more frenetic than the general meetings.

I, and several others, are intending to make it to the 1st July practice before the supertrucks meeting on the 21-23rd.

I'll probably come down on the 1st july for a drive and check out the other cars, prolly won't go on the track but it should be a nice day

**takai** · 20-06-2006, 05:30 PM

Heh, part of me is hoping itll be drizzling for the next 3 weeks, because that way there might be snow on the alps. The other part of me wants to get out to Mallala on a nice dry track with decent temps.

You'll just have to hope for nice weather I think

If it's gonna be nasty it won't be a nice drive out there but should be interesting watching people on the track.

Me and Jonny were hoping for the 12th august as there are a few members wanting to smooth out a few bugs, but i dont see any harm in going twice in a month.

**gerald1** · 03-09-2006, 10:51 PM

guys just a question. do you need any form of license apart from your normal drivers license to have a few laps around the track and also, how much does it cost??

i fancy myself as a top driver, i wanna see what my 4a-f corolla can do :d

thanks
gerald

**jonchai** · 03-09-2006, 10:58 PM

for normal people like us...it cost $90 for the one day practice day entry, and additional $20 for the one-day CAMS licence. plus tyres, fuel, brakes, and if you want to hire a shed for the day, its another $20 (i think..or issit $30???) it's well worth having a shed to store the miscellaneuos stuff.

**takai** · 03-09-2006, 11:32 PM

Sheds are overrated, usually i bring a marquee if i can really be bothered, but normally it stays in the back of the car.

Next practice is on the 9th of September, which i will definately be at. Just have to decide how late i want to be up on Tuesday and Wednesday kitting these calipers....

how long would u get to spend driving at a practise day?

how thrashed does a car get on one of these days???

would it be recomended to throw some other tyres on my rolla? anyone got any tyres that would fit on the corolla that i could use. Im not taking it real seriously, i just wanna have some fun.

thanks

6 sessions of 15 minutes (which is more than sufficient for non-serious competitors

depends on how you drive, but for me, whenever i see a nice curvie road i can't help but flatten my right foot..i think its reflex

as for the shed thing..Takai tows his car there, so its easy for him to store his tools/spare wheel/computer/drinks/torch/jack/chair/fuel tanks/bag of food/ipod and other Misc items.

screw-it...just leave them in the car

**takai** · 04-09-2006, 12:38 AM

Heh, you do have a point about the shed i guess....

**rolla20** · 04-09-2006, 01:26 PM
