Should be a great day out! Hopefully the weather cooperates itself too. Catch you all there in the 991 GT3. 1 hour ago, MFX said: I just submitted a new application paying for the track day as well (first application I didn't put down for the track). We have also booked filled our Air BnB. Should be a great day. Awesome gents. Shaping up to be a great crew! MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidmarks Posted 29October, 2020 Author Report Share Posted 29October, 2020 Great support. Would be great to get loads of people and cars up even if not partaking in track jollies Thanks. All being well, Rohan and I will rock up with something a bit special we transacted on today ... Seems we’ll have a nice group of cars. Those that said they’d bring their GT3’s ... they are still going to be featured so come. Roll on 9 January!

Winton is a great little track, not super high speed - few good 2nd & 3rd gear corners to enjoy in an early 911. Nah, I’ve just sold the ‘disposable’ track car, Winton’s got too many concrete walls close to the track for me. Last time I was there a certain orange IROC had some interface issues with one of them ! hugh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping there will be some on track video provided of the new heap please @Skidmarks. In fact, I think there should be a decent video done of the whole weekend if someone is able to provide.

Only the exits of turn 2 and the final turn you should use a bit of restraint Pete. Have a look at some races on Youtube to see what its like.

But thanks for the vid Lee, I'll study that a few times Yeah, its a bit tight in places mate, but if you drive it accordingly knowing you have to drive home (aka don't be a dickhead trying to keep up with Sven or Rohan etc 😁) you'll be right. Turn 4 right hander can catch you out if you get in there too hot, same with turn 2, but you'll work it out easily enough. Main straight is pretty quick, but theres plenty of run off. I crashed there on a bike flat biscuit in 5th gear in the pissing rain. Felt like I slid on my arse all the way to Benalla! 😁 It's my second favourite track for sure.

Will be great to see you there. Shaping up as a great day. Payments are being reconciled and confirmations will be sent shortly. Those coming for a drive, park and a look, it would be helpful if you logged on and just indicate that you intend to come. Even if it turns out you can’t make it, an Indication would be helpful. hugh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
