OZ GTR35 Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 All, Speaking with Dave from Moto concepts he offered up the EC skidpan on any moto concept bike day, because it’s sitting there not getting used. Dave's suggestion was to aim for a weekend in November. Dave must supply an instructor for the day and the cost is still a little high, but because of the weekend factor there is a stronger chance of getting higher numbers. Cost ? 40 people at $50 each. There should be ample time for everyone to get plenty of spins. If you all could let me know indicative number of interested people we can see if this will fly. This represents good value in my eyes, so if we can get close to the numbers I will pick a date and post up.

Duncan Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 ah, cancel the q in the other thread. When you say Dave would have to supply an instructor, what if the club sub-letted the track and ran it on our own CAMS insurance? Any idea on the price for just the skidpan? Dino, do you know what we would need to do this? And there is a fun looking figure 8 skidpan over behind the medical centre now too Oh, and I'm in BTW Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25365-drift-day-at-eastern-creek-interested/#findComment-538791 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRK25T Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Will there be someone willing to teach a non-hoon how to 'drift'? If you give me 2 weeks notice (if on Saturday) or a days warning on Sunday i'll be in. Do we need helmets and long pants etc?

B-Man Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Fark yeah - I'm in ! 40 cars sounds like lot though - what about 20 cars @ $100 each ? If you do the math - 1 car on the skid pan at a time - say 1 minute (at least) for the fang - that's a wait of 39 minutes between fangs. What about 20 x 2 - am and pm sessions. Anyway - it'll work out. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25365-drift-day-at-eastern-creek-interested/#findComment-539369 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dino, do you know what we would need to do this? ... If we were going to do a Club day at the skidpan we would need a Clerk of the Course etc. As it's an event where the cars are in motion CAMS require supp. regs and officials (unlike the Concours). From memory the skid pan is $1500 for the whole day, $750 for 1/2 day. So if Dave is charging $2000 it's not too bad a deal I guess.

Terminal Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 just a query, is this only open to SAU NSW members, or can anyone show up? I'd be keen but i haven't gotten around to getting membership yet.

OZ GTR35 Posted September 23, 2003 Author Share Posted September 23, 2003 Like most team trackday events, no membership needed. Unless the numbers get too big, the events are expended to friends who have nothing to do with this forum as well. Numbers so Far 11 people, 29 still needed. Or an increase in price?
