BezerkR32 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Are people honestly prepared to pay $200 for drag racing, even if you get 40 passes it only equates to 5 minutes of track time, a bit rich i think. why not run more cars and pay less money. John Bostons Track Day at OP guatantees 40mins of track time for the same price... Hi Guys, spots are filling fast (30+ taken in one day!) If you are keen send me a PM.

LSX-438 Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) Short answer is YES! Have you ever been to a Wednesday Night Eastern Creek Meeting? It's usually 1 hour in between runs. There is no comparison. Private days are a fun day with as many runs as you can take! You will be exhausted at the end of the day. 10x better experience, and well worth it.

They were fun...until we rocked up with a couple of sub 10sec cars, a few drops of rain, they (WSID staff) called it off, tried to stooge us of our cash and then changed the rules so sub 11 cars were banned. KUNTS!

NXTIME Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I agree, Paul. However, as long as a car doesnt break the 11's, then it can be run all day long IE test and tune...half track passes etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261930-wsid-private-hire-sunday-21-jun-2009/#findComment-4489536 Share on other sites More sharing options...
star32 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 So what is the deal with this 11.99 sec or slower and the ANDRA licence? My plan is to run faster than 11 and I do have an ANDRA licence. Will I be able to run more than a single run or not? Dont want to pay $200 for a single run.

Will I be able to run more than a single run or not? Dont want to pay $200 for a single run. My suggestion would be to do a number of half track and/or 3/4 passes and then wait until late in the day to do a full power run. If you run sub 11's then you wont be allowed to run again. But it depends on WSID staff's mood. If you just break into the 10's, they will probably ask you to take it easy.

LSX-438 Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 My apologies guys, but if you are planning on running 10's or quicker then this day is NOT for you.. Simple as that. I dont need the aggravation. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261930-wsid-private-hire-sunday-21-jun-2009/#findComment-4490073 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't run quicker than 10.99 or quicker, regardless So.. you can make passes all day long over 10.99ET, no problem The basic constraint is you cannot run 10.99 or quicker.

I dont need the aggravation. This facility is owned by the state government, its catch-cry when Morris Iemma opened it was to get young people off the streets and a place to run their cars as well as a track to run big events like the international top fuel stuff. The wsid management after this 'incident' decided to lock out a lot of racers from private hires who had quick cars. They then tell us you can race at ANDRA test days for 3 times the fee charged for a private hire. This put the sheer cost of running our cars out of some peoples budgets and put racers back on the streets. Yes private hires are not for people like myself and my Stacey who the most fun we ever had racing the car was at an SAU run day racing with our friends. 11.00 is silly as they say that the track is only prepped to street meet standard (that was their excuse for imposing the 11.00 rule) and is unsafe for cars quicker than 11.00. But i can run a 7 second car on a wednesday night with no issues. Work that out. I think a change to 10.00 would be more appropriate as there is a huge list of cars in the 11.00-10.00 bracket. Guys with 11.00 cars or slower, these days are great fun...enter, run your car all day and have a great time. All im saying is id like to be there to run with you.

All im saying is id like to be there to run with you. I understand where you are coming from and i know all the history. I've organised several of these days before including a few where SAU members have been invited and attended. Please, let's not use this as a platform to air old wounds yet again, it will just spoil the day and make matters difficult for those who have to deal with track management. I am over the whole 10.99 thing. Having said all that, places are running out, with about 37 taken in 48 hours. If anyone is interested please let me know asap.
