powerplay imports are holding a track day at wakefield on monday 26th june details cane be found on their website on www.powerplayimports.com

now the main reason i'm letting you guys know is that the infamous r32 gtr of winfield/gibson motorsport in 1992 tooheys bathurst will be there tearing up the track, now wouldn't it be nice to be racing there with the real godzilla with you're own pride n joy?

personally i wouldn't mind going for a looksie just to see first hand for myself for a piece of motoring history as i've read, and heard stories about it, but in reality haven't seen it in action, and it'll be bloody awesome to see and hear it in full anger.

if gtr was ready i'd be entering, just so i can get a nice video clip of it and my gtr tearing up the track.

Hi Guys,

Regarding spectators at the track day, we have not advertised for spectators at this stage for a few reasons.

1. The day is being catered for so everyone attending (weather they are drivers or 2nd drivers) needs to be payed up before the event commences. As you can surely appreciate, organising catering for an unknown amount of people is near impossible. Hence I need to know exactly how many people are coming so I can make sure that everyone gets fed properly. The Wakefield Cafe will not be open on the day so our catering is the only food that will be available at the track.

2. If we get too many spectators it takes my attention off the track and drivers. I am putting this day on for the drivers and it is very important to me that I am there and able to assist my drivers with anything they may need. If I am too busy controlling spectators and overwhelming numbers of people at the circuit, I cannot do this. It is also most important that I am able to monitor the track for any incidents or dangerous driving and having to monitor large amounts of spectators makes this near impossible.

At this stage I am going to have to say that spectators will not be permitted to the event unless you are a 2nd driver who is coming with a registered driver.

Thanks and I hope you can understand our position on this issue. I can appreciate that you would all like to see the Winfield/Gibson Motorsport R32 GTR driving at full race pace, however at this stage this is an opportunity that is only being extended to the drives and 2nd drivers. I can assure you that there will be plenty of photo's from the day available and there may even be some video footage that some individuals may take.

Thanks

Tosh

man it's been a while, good to see you still alive hee hee

yeup business good, haven't had time to play with gtr, just working away. i finally replaced the clutch haa haa from a nismo to os giken, miss the 'rattle' sound i got from the nismo clutch, as the os giken doesn't 'rattle' but who cares it does the job.

for some reason i thought power play were in melbourne don't know why, and the amount of times i've been to sydney for work on weekends i could've come round to check for parts. bugger.

mate i'll be lying if i said put me down for the track event as i need a radiator, which i've ordered, but damn taking soo long, so now i'm looking at sunday 2nd july wakefield skylines australia are having a track event.

anyways might see ya at the track some time soon
