Dec '08 Bathurst 'trackday' - Any Skylines/gtrs Attending?

[gts4diehard]

Was just checking out some details for Bathurst, and came across this site, http://www.drivebathurst.com/, is anyone here going to run their cars in this event? looks a bit expensive but given the opportunity would be a good blast!

It would be interesting to see how some of the newer GTRs would go on the track.

I think more people would be doing the Speed weekend at Bathurst in Dec with the Bathurst light car club http://www.blcc.com.au/index.php?option=co...7&Itemid=40

It's not the whole track but have heard its an awesome weekend with super sprint and hillclimb and costs around $120 a day

Will be hoping to do it this year..just see how Dutton Rally goes for me first

A few track day guys have done that event in December and loved it.

Oh really !!

It's pretty popular and need to get your entry from in asap..I dont want to till after dutton which by then probably too late

so was I, you can enter Targa Tas for that price. Bloody steep for a club day/weekend

[Duncan]

lol you must live in tassie if targa only costs you $6k

but no I'm not putting that much into a couple of laps of bathurst either, if you are that keen it would be cheaper to buy a seat in a ute or similar for the race meet in January.

Like Jess said the bathurst speed weekend is a much better idea - not full track but its only $200 not $6k. I'll be bringing the race car up there this year

Duncan, you'll be coming up there year??

You havent replied in the nsw thread yet bout it!

[Duncan]

oops i need links

Everyone I know that has done it loved it as well. But for them the entry fee price wasn't a huge deal.

Like anything in life - if you can afford it and its a good thing then you are going to love it.

For example - my folks have just gone off on a 1 week fishing trip thats costing them $13K. I personally think it's insane as I know I can go fish off the end of the peir for $10 in bait costs. But it's not the same experience and they are happy to pay the money to do something they like.

lol... I don't know how many 1000 lb Black Marlin you can catch from the end of the pier, but I get the drift mate
