Speed Off The Streets - March 9 - Wakefield Park - $150 Entry


Recommended Posts

The Rotary Enthusists of NSW (RENEW) have some track days booked this year and would like to invite members of this forum to enter. The first event is at Wakefield Park on the 9th of March.

Our days are run as a track day, not a supersprint, and focus on maximum track time and therefore the maximum opportunity to improve driving skills. All our trackdays have timing included in the entry fee and results go on Natsoft. We limit the entries to four speed groups with a maximum of 12 cars per group. This is not a free for all with oversubscribed entries and that means more clean laps and making the most of your track time. We always have a broad variety of cars at our events, not just rotaries, and the mood of the days are always relaxed and friendly.

The speed groups are carefully monitored and regularly re-assessed throughout the day to keep it safe and enjoyable. There are a number of untimmed sessions in the day so drivers can take an instructor along with them to fine tune their driving. One of our members found a five second improvement after just one instructor session - and his case is not unusual.

We always welcome people with interesting cars and the right attitude including first timers. We will have the link to the entry form up in a few days. Hope you can make it.

**Title changed as no longer a Renew Track day - See further down for info from gregor** -

Sorry for the late response, had some issues getting the form up on our site. I've attached it here for now.

Entry cost is $250 for members, $290 for non members. Fire extinguisher is mandatory for all entrants.

All welcome, even the wasteland's most prolific trolls :cheers:

WOW my 32 track car might just be ready as most of the stuff is getting fitted the week of the 25th of FEB. Cage ect. If shes a goer i may enter.

Due to an underwhelming number of entries this event will now be run as a speed off the streets day by Wakefield Park. Entry cost is $150, rock up and pay on the day. Fire extinguishers are no longer mandatory as per other speed off the street events.

    • Nothing wears "the most". Different cars will always show signs in a different place. 114000 km is either nothing at all (as in, given the calendar age, nearly brand new) or it's completely unbelievable. We stopped believing numbers like that about 15 years ago. Having said that, my car is up around 270000 km and I have put bushes into some places** as many as 10 times in >25 years that I've owned it. ** FUCAs, which are different on an R32 than on a 33, so not likely to be the same issue for you. I have original ball joints all the way around. They are perfectly fine. Same with the spindle bearings in the front. Tie rod ends have all been done at least once though. Pretty much every other bush in the car has been done at least twice. Some of those in the first 100000km after I got it (which was at a genuine 23000!). Some of those bushes are now sphericals, and they are on a <cough> regular maintenance schedule, hence why my FUCAs have been rebuilt so many times. Half of those 10 in the count above would be in the last few years! 'twere I you, I would budget on replacing everything, for fun and prevention. If they really are 30 year old rubber, they will all be unpleasantly aged in one way or another. Whether that's corrosion of shells, or the rubber cracking, or sagging under the load, etc etc.
    • Tighten until it starts to get loose again, then back off 1/4 turn?
    • Do them as you'll find when you remove them they are perished/dried.    Its probably one of the best things to do as makes the car so much more responsive. Do ball joints while there too.
    • Hi All Got an R33, about 114,000km on the clock.  Handles very nice, no signs of issues.    Engine is out and i'm doing an underbody refresh, mainly painting subframe, cosmetics etc. Can't see anything physically giving play, but I'm wondering which bushes are the ones that wear the most, or the first ones that may give problems down the track? For good measure I'm thinking to fit new ones. Thanks
    • This post has OUTER tie rod torque spec - what about INNER tie rod torque spec??? Cannot find this info ANYWHERE.
