Hill Climb Day In Canberra

[zebra]

Hey guys,

I wondering how many people would be interested in a club day at the canberra hill climb?

http://sdmahillclimb.com/Start.html

Ive put the feelers out to see if they do private days for car clubs, and was hoping SAU NSW would be up for it.

Thanks

This is something suited for discussion at the AGM, you should come along

With only 19 days to go until all elected members (Pres, VP's Tres, Sec) have to step down, I don't think the current exec team will be making any bookings. The new exec team, well, thats a different story as they will be the ones managing all the events

I thought the AGM might be the best place...but unfortunatley i can make it

I just thought id gauge intrest as im still waiting on a reply from the SDMA guys.

I think it would be a great idea, we have a lot of trouble with getting available weekend times for our regular events like Wakefield Park and the Nirimba skid pan.

Can you check out the cost to book, recommended max number of entrants, and who can provide insurance/permit (hopefully AASA).

Andrew, I'm sure one of us going will be willing to bring it up on your behalf

[Shell]

hmm not sure I've ever heard of it being rented out to other groups

Duncan they run under CAMS when they have their hillclimbs

[Duncan]

It will be a problem if it is CAMS only, unless they run the event for us. We do not have the required trained CAMS officials (CoC, Stewards, Flaggies) to run an event like this on our own.

Ouch! with cams as most of us doesn't have one lol

I havent heard anything back from them as yet

[Shell]

I know a couple of the committee members if you want me to ask?

[zebra]

yes please sheldon

or even just some alternate contact details

[Shell]

Try Jeno (in the general members section http://sdmahillclimb.com/Committee.html )

Tell him I said to reply quickly to you or I'll kick his ass lol

He should be able to tell you if they hire it out at least...

[zebra]

Ok I have a reply,

Who wants the details?

I can forward the email to who ever needs it

[zebra]

I will find out what we can do re: instructors in the cars etc.

Heres a copy and paste with out the costs of the options

$x per day where the SDMA organises and conducts a hillclimb or other event on behalf of the Hirer.

$x per day for the use of the asphalt circuit, toilet facilities, pit area and café area where officials are provided by the SDMA (Clerk of Course or Deputy Clerk of Course, Grid Marshals, Flag Marshals/Observers etc). All other organisation and services undertaken by the Hirer.

Max field of cars is 60, which is heaps.

No instructors or passengers are allowed.

No firm dates yet as they need a propper application from the club before they consider letting us loose there.
