Bathurst Weekend - 2 And 3 December

[Duncan]

Well, its on again, the Bathurst Speed Weekend.

On the Saturday is a supersprint - standing start near the top of conrod right down thru the chase finishing at the main finish line.

Sunday is even better, a hillclimb up the track from conrod right up to macphillamy park.

$115 for each day, very cheap! And a good opportunity for a beer or 3 on sat night.

All you need is long clothing, AS approved helmet, fire extinguisher and battery triangle (and 2nd bonnet restraint if your car is pre 83)

aww shit

my old car

boys, this truly is a top event

the supersprint starting on conrod is tops

and as for the hillclimb, you get to do a "tyre warming exercise" (no shit, thats what they officially call it) beforehand./ so smoko the tyres

get entered

duncan, pls keep me informed of this event. id like to come watch on sunday. cheers, mark

[lingeringsoul]

oh my god....if I can't enter I can always go watch....either way....it's gonna be fun

[Primordial]

Ooo this sounds great!

I'm in for this one!!

[Abo Bob]

Sounds good. I guess we should start organising accomodation now.

Minimum 4 runs, max 100 entries on day one, minimum 3 runs, max 80 entries on day 2.

I certainly hope we get more than 3 runs in one day. That would suck arse to go all that way for 7 runs over 2 days.

[evil_weevil]

id be keen but i could only do saturday - and Ive already got accom sorted

ps - with the supersprint - is there any point with the 180 speed limiter???

Yeah i was reading that... it seems a little harsh

I guess though.. 100 vehicles is a fair number, but still, so little runs as a minimum is suprising. Hopefully they dont get so many entrants!

IN!!!

(Well, for watching unless someone donates a car)

no such thing as "track days" at bathurst using the whole track. unless you are racing a race car, built to a class you have no hope of driving the full track under closed 'race' conditions.

finish your own car you butt pirate! this is 2 months away. stop bludging and get crackin'. gives you something to aim for.

You know what ive been doing this afternoon?

Shopping

There's just too much to consider, its getting to be a giant headache

Still, ill be driving up in one of the cars either way, so yeah, pub on Saturday night sounds good

You know the worst part about this? I was having those CV joint problems when this was on last year, and only the week before i magaed to get it all finished/fixed, so i missed out Still, the observant ones wouldve noticed it parked up there on top of the hill

[sh@un]

can't say i did =P

Ya gotta love a race car driver that doesn't read the sup regs!!!. Sunday's hillclimb starts on Mountain Straight not Conrod. Duncan were you on the turps when you posted up?.

Talking of turps,,,Saturday night sounds like a top idea to me,,,good thinking 99.

hge better be ready buddy or you could always use another car or 2 in the stable.

Come on everybody fill those entry forms out and lets have some fun.

Neil.

ps - with the supersprint - is there any point with the 180 speed limiter???

I guess it depends on your power, I didn't get it with my old gtst.

And last Time I did it there was no-where near 100 entries, and I got 6 runs each day....which is a lot for a hillclimb.

Also, don't forget its only $115 each day, its a great weekend away and not hard on the car.

[evil_weevil]

downloading my forms tomorrow and sending in asap

make beers on the fri night - that would be good too

Just hope my suspension is done by then.....

[88silhouette]

supersprint is started halfway down conrod (in the dip) so if you do 180 before the kink you'll be a happy boy. easy done

supersprint i only got in about 5 last time, but damn it's fun

hillclimb i got plenty of runs

with any luck, it'll rain. makes for more fun

[evil_weevil]

sweet as cant wait !

in for beers fri night too

[evil_weevil]

whats the easiest way to pay?

not sure if I missed it, but I didnt see any credit card option on the netry form - so Im guessing cheque?
