[Mat]

I''m sure the cost has gone up from last time (but when doesn't it), however we have 2 options available. Long track is open Monday-Thursday. I havent booked a day yet for obvious reasons but Megan said that most of September is free.

A) 1 Instructor on the long circuit from 12-5 is $1000 for 14 people. is about $70

b) Tuning arvo is $500 from 3-5 with 1 instructor. Max of 14 cars but of course you would probably only have 7 or 8. Cost would be similiar.

Last time we were allowed to use skidpan as a "warm down" after a lap (evo boys whinging!). I guess that's depends on the instructor

Dont need to worry about cams licenses or anything. Just long pants / sleeves / helmet and shoes and your away.

Pretty cheap way to enjoy your car really.

EDIT: Kieran, we cant forget D either as I know she was keen for Sunday but being OS and all..

I reckon I'll be in for this

IF I'm allowed!!

[Mat]

I dont know how the majority thinks, and while an all turbo ford day would be great, I dont think it would be possible so why not? That and the long term member thing

that's one thing I enjoyed about Sunday. XR6T ute / sedans, monaro, STi, wrx's, soarer, supra's etc. Was much better than having 10 dak dak's like usual

[AzMahoony]

110% in!!

[XR06T]

I think that we should put anything on the list, as it may become hard to find 14 people for a Wednesday..

Updated the list also.

Also is it ok to go as a passenger in another car if you have a helmet? I'd like to go for a spin in Ben EVO!

Also is there an option to not have an instructor?

Thanks for doing the ring around btw Mat.

[DRTYBOOST]

ive never done this before, can you guys tell us whats aloud, like burnouts etc?

[Mat]

No, you need an instructor to give you the theory stuff (which no doubt many people have heard a fair few times now!) and keep an eye on things (ie when cars going out onto track.)

On one hand its great having an instructor present but on the other hand, why should we pay someone to sit and talk to a co-worker for 3 hours. Sure with dangerous noobs, it would be a stressful job but when you have a group with a healthy amount of common sense, its much easier lol

HIGHLY doubt they will let pax laps too :(

Ben is it street reg'd or b reg / track toy?
