Skylines Australia Drag Day Cancelled

[88silhouette]

come and do some 30 metre drags at oran park north circuit at the fatz drift day on saturdya

[d0p3y]

What can I say, the situation sucks, but there's no point fighting with each other about it. If you're going to be angry towards anyone it should be towards the WSID execs showing the awful attitude towards us, the import community that supports them.

I hope that a resolution can be made and look forward to hopefully attending the rescheduled meeting next year.

I agree that starting fresh next year is the best option. There's way too much on between now and Christmas to try and organise another day at WSID.

For those that still want to race, there's always the Sport Compact meet at WSID on December 17th ($110 to compete) or good ol Wed nights at WSID.

I've never had a go at any of these Sport Compact meets before, but since there's no SAU drag day and i've still got the bug to race, i've decided to turn a negative into a positive and have decided to enter. I personally think it would be awesome if we could get a heap of Skylines out there and make a day of it

Adam, excellent work on organising the refund from WSID.

Look forward to the drag day next year

Amazing.

Hello!

[rukus]

Hi there Merli!

ASL PLZ!

[OFENSV]

anybody heard when we might recieve the refund?

[Abo Bob]

I will be directly depositing from tomorrow. I've had to wait for the WSID cheque to clear in the SAU account then a cheque to be written to me, deposited and cleared in my account before I can start depositing to the entrants accounts.

[OFENSV]

ok no worries, thanx

Just noticed this article on the WSID website SEE HERE

Not sure if it's directed at SAU in particular though.

[Abo Bob]

Some of it is directed at us. At least they finally spelled out the rules for us but of course no admission that they have been lax in providing those rules to us previously.

"To be fair, this may simply occur through a lack of understanding on the part of the hirer" This was the closest they came.

Probably not all directed at us - but probably still relevant..

Thats a crock of shit Adam...did you read the last paragraph...they dont even have a hiring agreement drawn up...they are only doing it now...can't wait till Canberra opens...we have a international grade track in the pipeline up here..Motorplex is behind it....they are having a blue with the RTA about constructing an overpass....a 3.5klm race circuit too.

WSID never had any form of written agreement? On what basis was the track being hired out? Whatever rules they felt like making up at the time? What a disgrace. Alot of double standards there. They won't allow sub-11 second cars at private track days, but only allow SS and higher to hire the track with a maximum of 8 vehiclles @$550 each? So if, say, the owner of a (street-registered and driven) sub-11 ET vehicle wants to race then they either (a) must be ANDRA licenced and can only use the track hire with a maximum of 8 cars @$550 each; or ( B) they can attend a Wednesday night street meet. However, they can't attend club private days.

Doesn't seem fair or reasonable to me. The same car can attend a Wednesday night street meet, but cannot attend a private (street) car club meet, but 11.00+ cars can attend both.
