Hey guys, Just a heads up - we have a FEW spots left for our Winton day. This time we're not letting anyone else co host the event (We had some issues in the past with other clubs not being able to run events to our standards) and will be doing it on our own as per usual. If anyone came last year we had a fantastic turnout and fantastic event, cars got amazing amounts of track time etc $195 entry for the day. First 30 newbies/L1/come and try entrants will get a FREE upgrade from a L1 day license to a YEARLY Level 2 Speed license! (10-15 gone so far) Less than 10 spots left! https://www.facebook.com/events/228418254329884/ P.S You DONT need to be a Uni student (name is more of a tradition thing for our November track event) if SAU gets 5 or more people we'll put you in a little team. Check out the event, theres a scoring system on there for teams and individuals etc. Get excited! Should be a cracker.

To those running on E85, the United at Vineyard on Windsor Road has started selling there. At Singleton there is a range of servo's available including BP, Shell and Caltex. There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. We will also be bringing along walkie talkies to keep the group together so if you have one please bring it along.

If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit.
