Trackday With Other Clubs?

[lingeringsoul]

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]

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]

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]

mabye if you start small like only have a small number of invites then bump it up every now and then. just an idea

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.

I think it's the other way around, we are too cool for him.

James - I did an Ian Luff day with the HSV owners, lets just say little ol' lizzeh spanked a few V8's!

Edit... by a few, I mean 1 and by spanked, I mean won by default coz the other car broke down.

[evil_weevil]

doesnt matter if you win by an inch or a mile - winings wining

forget who said that....some god racer?

motokharna's ftw

[Duncan]

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....

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".

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.

Wonder whether there would be enough interest in a Japanese Sportcar Supersprint Series in NSW?

Except when you make it to the semi finals of the khana sprint race only to be told that you're the 5th driver left and the other 4 WRX's will compete in the finals just because it's a WRX Club run day

Surely that wouldn't have happened, not WRX owners Tosh. 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.
