lingeringsoul Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Just out of curiosity, have we considered asking other clubs to our trackdays? I know we are close with RENEW but what about clubs like the WRX and Evo clubs or Supra, I wouldn't mind taking them on every oncec in a while.

N1GTR Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Hahaha, i tried something with the supra guys. They're keen on a drag day though which is good, but whether or not we get the numbers is a different thing (and that could mean we lose money.....a lot of it) Im working on something for next year that is going to be an invite event to other clubs Arent we cool enough for you?

lingeringsoul Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 we could allocate a few invite spots for some of the other clubs so we don't have to completely rely on only one club to come up with the numbers..... if we could get that organised for sometime next year, it would be so awesome!!

scoobs Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 mabye if you start small like only have a small number of invites then bump it up every now and then. just an idea Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/141270-trackday-with-other-clubs/#findComment-2631765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scathing Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 The NSCC guys love track days, so I'm sure they'd be interested. They also run in an inter-club supersprint, of which the WRX Club is a member, as well as the HSV boys.

Duncan Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 well many many years ago we did discuss running with the WRX and HSV days, they were extremely disinterested and unco-operative, so we went our own way with track days. But I thought there are plenty of track days available to club members at the moment, both private practice and competitve super-sprints....

scathing Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 pssssst.... motorkhana days with WRX club Those are fun. Except when you own a RWD car and the WRX guys set up the courses really tight. So not only can't you compete on time, you also don't have the room required to "express yourself".

scathing Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 have handbrake. will pivot.... alhough I've got an AWD myself.and what's with skidpan being wet? The handbrake in the Z is pissweak. Even with the cable tightened and on wet concrete, I have to be getting some serious yaw before it'll lock. Its easier for me to clutch dump to get the car sideways than trying to reef the handbrake. And I think the WRXs are scared of us RWD Nissan folk, so they stack the deck in their favour by turning the taps on (as well as shrinking the distance between the cones). Not that I mind, it just makes it even easier for me to go sideways.

blacksx Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Wonder whether there would be enough interest in a Japanese Sportcar Supersprint Series in NSW?

LOL There is work a-foot in having a cams registered Zed (Z32) car club and it will be seeking like minded, import enthusiasts, car clubs for good times, oh, and track time.
