SC 3.2 Posted 30March, 2016 Report Share Posted 30March, 2016 Just a matter of rocking up on the day and paying your entry fee at the gate,not an expensive day but last year some great cars in attendance and for a minimal fee you get to drive on the track in the cruise sessions.

firstone Posted 30March, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 30March, 2016 Ok, they haven't gotten back to me yet but this is what I know so far.She said, the track challenge that they usually run wasn't popular so she understood it may be replaced by 5 lap sprints. Details as I get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstone Posted 1April, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 1April, 2016 Latest news.Sprint laps, probably 5 laps with 15 cars at a time.

clutch-monkey Posted 1April, 2016 Report Share Posted 1April, 2016 $10 per cruise session? hell yes time to get something slow out on the track haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neill Posted 5April, 2016 Report Share Posted 5April, 2016 The track challenge this year will be 2 x 5 lap sprints with 15 cars per group.We run 10 cruises on top of the 2 VIP cruises. Each cruise is $10, so you can pretty well spend the better majority of the day lapping the circuit for $100 if you want to do them all.Pit bays are $100 as above and get you an additional 2 cruises which are only for those in the pit bays. They are a relaxed day out, nothing to serious. I will be there running the day, but highly unlikely my car will make it (way too much still to do).

Coastr Posted 29April, 2016 Report Share Posted 29April, 2016 Ok anyone going to this on Sunday? There are several of the $10 Cruze sessions, no helmet and passengers allowed. You can also do the sprints, trophies at the end for the fastest.Not sure what the weather is going to do. It was a lot of fun last year.

Coastr Posted 1May, 2016 Report Share Posted 1May, 2016 Yeah not going due to rather poor weather conditions. I imagine those who are there have the track to themselves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clutch-monkey Posted 1May, 2016 Report Share Posted 1May, 2016 not many cars there, only new stuff really like renault clios and bmw minis. too wet for me to even attempt going on the track on semi slicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastr Posted 1May, 2016 Report Share Posted 1May, 2016 Did you see a blue mk1 golf going around? I was thinking of going with him but I suspected it might be on race rubber at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
911oclock Posted 1May, 2016 Report Share Posted 1May, 2016 Yeah it was wet! Didn't stop some pushing the limits, although I suspect modern electronic wizardry was the only thing keeping some on the track. In saying that I only saw one spin - a jag right in front of me?due to the poor weather they will be holding another euro day later in the year so hold onto your entry ticket as it will get you in gates free next time.

I saw you out there; pretty sure you were the only 911.I had the Boxster out.. and am not so proud to say, that I was near the slowest car on the track. I hate driving in the wet and the rear just kept stepping out whenever the power was put on.. even coming onto the main straight, it would step out at 100km or so.. scary for someone like me.There was a blue old school golf.. i think it was a MK1.. if it is the one I am thinking of, he was QUICK. It seemed a pretty serious car.We left afer a few sessions.. a couple of serious looking 944 turned up.. had rear wings... and they were jacking up and swapping rims as we drove past..
