Sau:nsw Wakefield Groups & Info Thread

I might be an Evo driver, but I would be more then happy to sit with any of the n00b drivers and give them a few tips.

Hello,

Finally registered my own account (was previously using my friends account, akajonz).

I'm really looking forward to this! and have been edging to go for weeks now.

I'll be driving a honda, so please be gentle on the straights. 120kw ftl

[TiTAN]

play around with tourismo on the track, you should be similar if not his a little faster on the straights

[a20089]

Dah, I wanted to go head to head with Reece. If my times come down I'll see if I can move to group 1 on the day.

[FloydWestwood]

Red mist can be dangerous stuff! Anyone remember Oran Park South?

Lots of deep sand at wakefield too.

[benm]

Nice work on organising all of this Ando!

this one time, at band camp, he beat us all with a starlet.

but it's fairly far off the track, I'd have to try pretty hard to get beached in that

You can do it little Nicky!!!

hey Ando, thanks for organizing, well done.

Quick question, maybe i missed it, is there any seperate passenger sessions or are they along for the ride in the various groupings.

Looking forward to the day and hope the weather is kind to us.

cheers Ron

dont encourage him to do that, he is in our group, that means less track time for us.

Dude i'm happy to swap with you if you've got a bit of a rivalry going?

Don't worry, I have no plans to go play in the sand!

I do however plan on geting an award for "Seriously Cass, fix your f**king car or we will ban you from life!" or to the same effect

Not what the day is designed for, going 'head to head'. Sorry mate, i have to be very clear that this is a 'driver trainer day' and we will not accept any form of racing, we are not covered for that and the whole reason we are allowed passengers!

There will be no bumping up of cars because of 'times' as it is a non-timed event. Only movement will be if there is a clear mis-match of speed between cars in a particular group.

Ron - Mate, passengers are able to go out in every single session, all day long

[Tonba]

^ so your not even allowed to have a 'play around' with another car..?

[TiTAN]

not officially.

[Tonba]

What about overtaking? Will we be allowed to overtake anywhere?

Also, can we get there 7:00 ~ 7:30 for scrutineering? Or only at 8:00?

yes can overtake, but when it is safe and the slower car will still hold the line, faster car is responsibile for passing.

no passing/diving under brakes.

all this will be discussed on driver breifing

[Sean W]

my two cents;

if you are finding yourself right on the back of a car and wanting some room, an option is to just come into the pit entry. drive SLOWLY down pit lane and back out onto the track at the pit exit (make sure you have the wave-on from the pit exit marshall). this puts you on the opposite end of the track of the car you were hounding and you dont have to worry about executing an overtake. just a thought.

also, many thanks ando! looks great

[Sean W]

also, possibly a dumb question but group 5 is first. they followed by group 4 or group 1? groups running 1-5 but with 5 first or 5-1?
