Rennsport Regularity

[ByronBayChris]

I'm now considering entering my 72T in the Regularity at Rennsport.

I've not done this before, I do not have a CAMS licence and I have no race gear

So friends (and others) what do I need as a bare minimum to enter ?

Do I need an approved helmet, clothing and properly mounted fire extinguisher ?

Happy for anyone to throw their suggestions in.

Also, even happier if anyone in Brisbane or Byron wants to share a truck to get our cars down to Eastern Creek.    I am driving wioth my two boys, but may end up taking a bigger car if I enter regularity.

This clearly states you need a fire extinguisher, in order to do this you need to get yourself a mounting bracket, I have one of these in my Honda and it's a good adjustable kit:

You can buy the fire extinguisher from Revolution Racegear etc

You will need a blue triangle to mark the battery location (Revolution Racegear or Ebay)

 

Apparel

I can't read rules in the regs regarding apparel, but at the last Rennsport you needed to have FIA compliant clothing which included race suit, boots and gloves and a helmet that complies with Australian standards.  Maybe drop Alex Webster an email to clarify what the rules are
