Hey all,

anyone keen on hitting Wakefield Park on Friday August 31st.

I've caught the track day bug and can't stay away from it.

Cheers Paulo.

(I hear about the one on 8th september, how much track time do you get on that day with 50 cars out there, just curious seems like a good setup. I have football finals on that day)

Yeah you'll need that smile along with $50 for the annual license at Wakefield before you get on too.

Fill up at Mobil1 in goulburn and add octane booster to the diet set you back $25, but sure beats paying $2.75 a litre at the track bowser.

The track bowser serves "ET" race fuel rated at 102 ron, so buying the 98premium fuel with the octane booster provides "upto 7 points ron increase" gives you roughly 104-5 Ron which is not only cheaper but better RON as well.

Be prepared to go through at least one tank of fuel throughout the day as well not including driving there.....

road worthy car, cams or wakefield licence

100 bucks or there abouts?

long sleeved shirt, long pants, ADR helmet

and a big smile, and fuel....haha

Yeah thats not cheap. Including brakes and tyres being thrashed too! Sounds pretty straight forward...they have helmets at Wakefield right?

The smile will be on by default! :D Only after initial crapping myself (first time jitters)

Damn i need a wheel balance first... :action-smiley-069: Can i borrow 50 bucks? lol

How could you measure the octane level sitting in the tank? It would be hard to get it exact anyhow.

All those boosters are a load of hog wash.. If you want some decent fuel go buy that 100ron stuff.. otherwise UAS sell martini fuel. Don't start putting crap into the crappy pump fuel they sell.

ever seen actual test results to back that up???

Agreed some of them are crap but there actually some VERY good products available and alot of them come from servos too. Nulon is a proven performer. I actually have a few test results somewhere that bobby did not long ago when choosing a fuel for his GTR.

Those adatives are also a very good idea when filling the tank somewhere that gets well below 0 degrees. the wax content in their fuel is very high which is not exactly good for injectors.
