Circuit track day at Oran Park! (26/10/2003)

[PranK]

Hi All,

I have been in contact with Jeff, the manager from Oran Park raceway, in regards to several events coming up. They want to run a full on drift competition towards the end of the year and are holding a few pratice days prior to that on their south circuit.

SAU, the WRX club and the NSW Road Racing Club are their "guinea cops" on these pratice days. It would be good to get some good numbers!

From one of Jeffs emails;

L2s licence holders may practice in road registered cars, provided they comply with Schedule A & B in the CAMS manual. Basically the cars need to be OK for a Supersprint

- so you need to hold a CAMS L2S license for these events.

EDIT; this particular event will be circuit ONLY - no drifting! Drift events will be later in the year.

Cost; $80 per car.

Thanks Guys,

Christian.

? :confused:

So it's NOT a Drift practise day?

Good news about the L2S requirement, normally it's a C3 or higher. :uh-huh:

Keep us posted on the drift day date too, this little track would be a good place to get some practice, 2 lefts, 2 rights, not too fast to hurt much

But the best drift corner has a dirty great big wall on the RHS. he he:)

Nah - down the back would be fun !

I was wondering how WRXs drift ??

oops, I thought it was north circuit.

Cancel that, south circuit is crap for drift, not just the last turn but the left hander over the back of the track also has a wall very close...not for me

Wakefield is a better option for drift, less walls and tighter corners than oran park

I might go, where do I get details and apply? Timing?

I went out to a super sprint on Sat just gone, run by North Shore Sporting Car Club. Did a 48.36 only a zed with standard turbo's but she goes. Sorry if I am gloating.

ill be there just for a beer and a fart

amazing what a decent set of tyre can do to a cars time....

anyway drifting south is easy.. even onto the straight that is probably the best corner for hangging the arse out large (what a rush)
