Anyone done one of these "fun" days before? How many cars on the track at once? Bit worried about Wally in his clubsport or slr torana, no track experience, going hammer and tong and taking cars out. Is this a concern?

[KamikazeR33]

there r rules they will tell u b4 u go

if they wont stop them from hitting u there r fists in place

yes, we r all bogans after all

Car is a good chance of being ready, go the rain with semi slicks, you will never ever ever get a better lesson in throttle / car control.... can say that i have never learnt so much about driving as i did my first time in the wet at Wakefield in NSW

Ben your car is so fast that Mr Wally isn't going to be anywhere near you except for the 0.23s it takes you to fly past him.

Mind you Im mostly going just to get a feel for my car again - get a feel for my car at Winton - and if its raining getting a feel for driving my car quick on semi's in the wet!

Winton is so far away that Im tipping there wont be that many people there. I'm not too worries about wallies (well unless Ben does come then there will be one! haha)

[benjiman74]

So you think its a case of the pot calling the kettle black

Haven't been around Winton so this is probably a good chance, i 'll get of my lazy butt and come and have some fun.

you have semi's mate? hope not! seeing +300awkw's at Winton on street tyres will be funny funny funny!

LOL... i was going to say come down and have a punt around the track in my car, then i read +300awkws, you wont be interested in driving my old bus

And after seeing how far Winton is from Melb then i wouldnt be surprised if it isnt all that busy, except for the fellas from Albury
