TRACK DAY 1, TUESDAY JAN 27 QLD RACEWAY

Hi Guys,

It’s time to get booked in for the first track day of the year. For those who are new, the morning session runs a short track for the majority of the time, you will get about 21 laps, then we run the National Track (the one the V8 Super Cars race on) for the last hour, you get about 14 laps. The session runs as 1 warm-up lap, 5 hot laps and a cool down lap.

The running of each half day session is 4 groups of only 10 cars. Heaps of room on the track and all laps are timed. The groups are based on lap times, so fast cars are together and slower cars are together. There is a group for everyone. We send the cars onto the track spaced out evenly and overtaking is only allowed on the straights. Safety first. If you are a beginner let me know and we will arrange for extra tuition before you go onto the track. No extra charge.

Morning Session: [sprint Track 3hr, National Track 1hr]

Timed Sprints. Great session for beginners, doing testing / setup or cutting laps.

Afternoon Session: [Clubman Track] Project-Mu Time Attack Series Round 1

Timed Sprints. The series is points based so the on track rules are the same. Everyone is welcome, remember the groups are divided by lap times so there is a group for everyone. Please get involved. It’s fun first with our days.

If you have any questions please post up or send me a PM.

[HIRO F6]

How did Round 1 go??? Did we have any XR6T's representing? Im might head out there in my R34 soon, its got Project Mu rotors and pads about to be fitted. Might give the FG F6 with ZF box a run also at some stage.

[TCR]

Looks like there was only one:

Have always been a circuit racer myself, and as much as I said I wouldn't, I might be tempted to take the T for a run once I put some better rotors and pads. Don't fancy trying to pull the car up with standard BF brakes
