Winton - Sat 18 July

[billywhiz]

Thanks, looking to join the club and do the DT.

I take it that Winton is one of the better places to do driver training?

First timers, like me, might want to take a quick look at this doc from the WRX forums

Winton is a great track if your starting out. its a relatively low speed circuit, quite technical but with plenty of run off.

its a good one to develope your driving skills, they say if you can master winton, you can master any circuit!

Oh o

"Noise emission level is limited to 75dB(A) at 30 metres. Entrants who fail the drive-by 75dB reading will

get 1 (one) chance to rectify the problem and will be excluded if the car fails on a second reading"

Is this enforced at Winton? I thought they were a 95db track.

[Roy]

Hm, i have only been there with Dutton, but i have never heard of people getting into strife. PI seems to the worst, followed by Sandown

[phunky_monkey]

Hopefully it is 95db or I'm in some strife too I think...

What's the go with accomodation, from what I can see there's only a few places left with those dates available.

I can see there's also a few self contained cottage things available for 77-105 a night which cuold be good if people are interested in sharing.

[Belsil80]

Entry list is up on the Rex site.

[Adz]

Just got confirmation it will be a 95dB day.

Game on

[phunky_monkey]

Nice

[Josh_TypeX]

Got my entry in

Never been to Winton before, how long do I need to allow to get there? Anyone else heading up that morning?

Hi Guys,

I'm looking to enter this event. It will be my first event with SAU (normally just drift with VDC). Whats the go with Rollcages? I read the entry form and it says the event is held under ASAA. But then read the rules and regs and it said it has to be cams approved, same story with harnesses too...

If anybody could clear it up for me that would be great!

Cheers

Rob

If anyone needs clarification on anything unclear in the supp regs, you will need to contact the motorsport director of the WRX Club - this event is run by them and they set the rules.

His name is Justin and you can get him on [email protected]

Just avoids anyone here giving you incorrect info and then you being disappointed on teh day - best to get the answer straight from the horses mouth.

[pink180]

Thanks for the info Bec.

We've booked a cabin and we're in with the rest of you so should be fun. We'll just be staying the Saturday night and will drive up in the morning on Saturday and meet you all at Winton.

All of my friends bailed on me so it'll just be me and the missus this time but if DECA shep was anything to go by there's more than enough friendly people around to make up for it.

Side note: The 18th is my birthday so I might be in fine form on the Saturday night

EDIT: As this will be my first sprint in this car and I barely know it I'm going to do Driver Training Do you get to choose the Trainer?
