Time to drive it like you borrowed it from someone you don't like! ;)
Time Attack Track day at the Midvale Speed Dome.
Ideally we want up to 19 drivers so everyone has as much track time as possible.
It will be a FULL day, but obviously you can come and go as you please.
The day will cost $160 including lunch
It's a short course, so it suits quick accelerating and good handling cars, but there's a decent straight so your fast car can stretch it's legs a bit.
It will be an Autokhana/Superkhana style event, which essentially means driving really fast around a series of tight corners and short straights against the clock.
It will be a FULL day event,
You will need your own, or access to the following things;
> Licenced & roadworthy car
> Helmet
> Long sleeve shirt and pants (cotton is best)
> Closed in shoes
Your car will be lightly scrutineered before you are allowed to drive it on the track.
Basically, make sure the following things are done;
> Battery is secure
> Seatbelts lock under tension
> Tyres are not completely bald
> Loose objects are removed from cabin
> Your car is not falling apart
> Your car is not leaking vital fluids
Cost is $160 - payable before the day.
Price will include Hot Dogs and drinks for the drivers only.
Spectators are most welcome, but will need to provide their own food and drink.
You will need to bring your own;
> Seats/blankets/cushions to sit on during the day.
> Sunscreen, just in case
> Insect repellent, just in case.
> Don't forget your tools, and spares just in case!
There's plenty of room to make a mistake, so rest assured that the worst that will happen is your car might get a little dirty.
It's always good fun, and it's mostly at slower speeds, so drive at the pace that you're most comfortable with. Your times will improve the more you drive.
There's a chance of some professional instruction on the day too.
The money is non-refundable, so if you can't make it, find someone else to take your place.
Make sure your car is reliable, and will last the whole day. The price is the same whether you drive for 1 run or 20.
You may drive someone else's car (with their permission of course!), but that car will need to scrutineered also if it hasn't been already.
Lastly, the track is for everyone who is driving on the day. Each run takes between 40 seconds and 1 minute 30 seconds depending on the track's layout.
Don't dawdle, remember who you're after in the running order so that you're ready to go when it's your turn to race.
If you're deemed to be unsafe on the track, you get 1 warning only. After that, no more driving for you.
You will need to let me know A.S.A.P. if you intend on driving, so that I can advise and pay the venue, and sort out the running order for the day.
Feel free to contact me with any questions that are not answered above ^^
Thanks :)
