Howe Posted 22September, 2016 Report Share Posted 22September, 2016 Can anyone advise of a Brisbane based club that has a track day at say ,Lakeside or Mt Cotton that you don't have to have a CAMS licence and any special car mods to participate? Have a 2010 PDK Boxster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clutch-monkey Posted 22September, 2016 Report Share Posted 22September, 2016 Shouldn't need mods in a Boxster, and only need a AASA license for lakeside (buy one on the day), so any sprints or general practice will do. If it's more the pace you are worried about, Bmw club, VW water cooled etc all run happy laps, amongst others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timm Posted 22September, 2016 Report Share Posted 22September, 2016 Just jump on the Queensland Raceway website and you can see when the practice sessions or sprints are on at QR or Lakeside. You can get a day license for 20 bucks, or an annual for 50. Sprints are between 135 and 175 bucks a day and you can rent a lap timer for 20 bucks with a 100 dollar deposit (or buy it outright for 120). General practice sessions are a bit cheaper. If you really just want to do happy laps...like clutch monkey said there are a couple of facebook clubs that regularly have them like downshift, torque time etc...but beware that those sessions tend to have a lot of cars on track and everybody creeps around corners so that they can drag down the straights.

BlitzKonig Posted 22September, 2016 Report Share Posted 22September, 2016 VW Watercooled no longer allow anything other than FWD cars along to their meets Clutch btw.BMW Club holds happy laps at Lakeside, otherwise there are many more at QR (if you like only racing in a straight line)As Timm said, you can easily get yourself a day licence for General Practice, at which you can take your own pace. 86 Club also has been doing track days now at Norwell again.

Timm Posted 22September, 2016 Report Share Posted 22September, 2016 I'm planning on going to the next midweek sprint at QR (Wednesday the 5th) so would be happy to show you the basics Howe. Midweeks are normally pretty quiet so there are less cars out on track and everyone can have a pit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumperson Posted 22September, 2016 Report Share Posted 22September, 2016 BMW club has happy laps at their October event at lakeside. 6th or 7th from memory and it supports Beyond Blue on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
