Wakefield Speed Off The Streets

[Manuel Kasko]

Hey guys,

Anyone been to these events?

I never bothered to check them out but I noticed that are fairly well priced for $150 weekends and $120 weekdays. Just wondering if anyone knows how much track time you would normally get?

Also if anyone would be keen on coming up to one with me in the coming months.

last one I went to, there was me and 2 Evos and thats it

Was a weekday though.

So in that case as much track time as I wanted

Did a couple of 40-50 mins sessions

[PN-Mad]

Yes, have been to a couple.

It's very loosely controlled. Nil scrutiny, no real street car groupings, just street, race, open wheelers, sometimes carts, etc. obviously need license and helmet, but that's about it.

Get 5+ sessions in, being about 15 mins ea. nice in the arvos when they crowd thins out. I go on weekdays because of the traffic. It gets pretty busy out there, and there can be some really slow cars and drivers.

Cheapest way to go to Wakefield.

[Manuel Kasko]

Sounds pretty awesome!

I had lots of fun at the Skyline Nationals and wanted to get out on the track again.

Going to get my temps under control first so I can make the most of it.

I'll just call in sick for the day and head to the track haha.

From what it said on the website you can only take passengers if they have a license as well.

Did this get enforced when you guys went?

[zebra]

No Pax when I went. but it was a while ago

[PN-Mad]

Haven't tried passengers, but understood it was only for driver training purposes, with applicable licence.

[Manuel Kasko]

Yeah that's what the website said as well.

I really want to take my brother out on the track with me.

I probably won't be going this month.

Already taken 3 days sick leave this week.

But I'll be aiming for something in the coming months. Getting my car sorted with all the small bits I have been neglecting first

Could well be worth a cruise for a looky see.

[Manuel Kasko]

Maybe we could go check it out one weekend Rob. They have the Shannons nations coming up in a few months as well

i need to do a test day in the next month or so, if you work out when you're going i'll try and make it on that dame day too.

[Got a Pulsar]

Well THAT I would Love to see!!!

[D.I.Y. Mik]

That would be sik!

But.... will they let you drive it at one of these events?

[Shell]

I went once on a weekday, was only about 10 cars there. Heaps of track time for everyone.

[Trozzle]

Pretty silly question, but this is exclusively CARS yeah? As in I can't attend on le moto (not that I'd particularly wanna ride it at Wakefield lol, more just curious)

[Manuel Kasko]

They have motorbike days as well Troy.

But yeah the speed off the streets is for cars only.
