Oran Park Gp 14th Jan 2010 Last Ever Open Trackday

[Bozman1]

The title says it all

As ORAN PARK will stop operating from the 25th JAN 2010, this is the very last opportunity for you to drive on the circuit at an open track day without having to hold any special race licence. YES THIS IS THE LAST EVER ORAN GP OPEN TRACKDAY.

This day promises to bring a bag of mixed feelings....sad, historic, happy etc

I think this should be a day to come along and farewell this magnificent venue we have come to know

I have some very special friends coming along to this day. RALLYSCHOOL and SPORTSCAR WORLD RENTALS will have displays on the day and will be giving away prizes.

3 lucky people will go for a ride in a rally car on the purpose built rally track at ORAN PARK on this actual day as part of a lucky door prize for all entrants on the day. The prizes will be drawn at lunch.

3 lucky people will go for a ride in a sportscar supplied by SCWR on the ORAN PARK GP circuit on this actual day as part of a lucky door prize for all entrants on the day. The prizes will be drawn at lunch. Last time I did this, SCWR allowed me to take people for rides in there 430 Ferrari

This day is sure to be a sellout, with people emailing weeks ago putting there name down for this event as they have heard about it through the grapevine.

[The Bogan]

Im just about to ring, LOL

1800 just kept ringing so ive left a message on your mobile.

Thanks, Mark.

[GoldZilla]

Ahhhh, so tempted to do this! I'll HAVE to keep this in mind and make sure nothing else is on my schedule for this day.

15min sessions are perfect at OPGP - just enough time to get some good laps in, without burning yourself out or over-cooking your car!

[Yo-Yo]

yeah same I tried ringing that # countless times, I will email, very interested

[Bozman1]

The 1800 number is working crew

If you let it ring long enough, it will go to an answering machine lol I have tried it myself to make sure.

You are probably use to phones not ringing for very long

[The Bogan]

Paid, Leave booked, is it January yet

[evil_weevil]

hmmmm.......

I'll keep an eye on it!

I can vouch for how awesome these JB days are! I would love to be there in the blue silvia Bozman, but she is for sale and think it might be gone by then. If not... then i might see availability when i get back from UK on the 9th of Jan

[87calais]

Booked in. Cant wait, never driven on OP, was hoping to get a chance before it closed. Now to get the car up to the task...

[Bozman1]

Only 20 positions left

[nuttsHunglow]

Ok I have added this into my diary so I hope to attend.

Not happ ythat this place is closing down.

[duff]

what is the total number of cars that are going to be there driving? Will it be 50 cars split up into 4 groups? more, less

[Bozman1]

Hi Andrew

ORAN GP can easily handle 20 cars on the track at once. If you race in a full grid event, you can have up tp 42 cars on the track at once....but that is not what we will do

We are going to have 4 groups of 20 cars....so a total of 80 people max. We will end up having a reserve list for this event, as there is just massive interest.

As of today we have 72 entries
