Bring a jumper as it gets bloody cold down there.For some more info, check out the thread for the last day we went out:http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.ph...mp;hl=wakefieldAnd the Wakefield Park Website: http://wakefieldpark.com.au/There is a general open track day on Tuesday July 15.It'll cost you $110 for the day$50 for a Wakfield license (valid for 12 months)and $20 for a helmet if you don't already have one.Wakefield Park is 15 minutes out of Goulburn, and we will be meeting at Pheasants Nest (Mobile Service Station) at about 6:30am for a 7:00 sharp departure.Pheasants Nest is about 30 minutes South of Narellan Road on the Hume Highway (M5).So who's going?CroRAP1DrjsTurbo6manSOFT (Maybe) list:Iconic BionicTONTINE (ultra soft)ExAreSix Edited 14/07/08 09:56 AM by Cro Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/47313-track-day-wakefield-park/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
