Don't let that stop you......I'm only doing it because a set of JDM poverty pack NC wheels and tyres came up for sale at MX-5 Plus. I just used the normal road tyres and wheels on the NA.


Depends if I can sort out my car. Since wheel alignment car pulls to the right on heavy braking.
Not sure if its the aggressive wheel alighment or worn brake pad on left front wheel.
If, I sort it out before thursday I will come and play.

I don't know if they make a stopwatch that will keep running long enough to record my times :roll: :mrgreen: .

Clothing for all occupants must be neck to wrist to ankle with shoes and socks.

A helmet is required for all occupants.

An indemnity form is required for all occupants.

Passengers are at the discretion of the organisers/QR.

These are QR rules not ours and they WILL get upset if they aren't followed/enforced.

If we all play by the rules we all get to have fun :) , if we don't we may all get to go home early :(

only 49 more hours :)
Went for a drive and there were slow cars everywhere, why are NC's so common . . . must be NC = Normally Cardiganed.

No, we won't be able to have passengers, if we want to do that we need our own insurance for that kind of activity.

While I'm breaking bad news, there won't be any timing either, they want to charge an extra $250 this time for timing.

So bring a stop watch and tee up with someone in another group and time each other.

QR's processes have changed a little since the last track day.

Don't worry JBT, I'll bring a calendar!! :P :mrgreen:

That really sucks, the passenger thing I don't mind but I really look forward to seeing the times and how they compare to previous times.

Is that $250 for everyone to get times?

Well if it is $250 all up, there is usually around 30 cars who turn up, so that would be less then $10 each, I don't know about everyone else, but I would be happy to fork out an extra 10 bucks to see if I am improving my times. Even if we just found out the number of people who did want times and then split it up?

X2, i would be in for that.

Peter... if on the day we find out people are able to chip in for timing will that be ok. Or does it have to be organised before the start of the day?

Cheers,
Danny

Danny,

you are a scholar and a gentleman :D

I'm sure others, including me, will chip in and cover the cost.

I have asked the question of QR and they won't be getting back to me till tomorrow so as soon as I know I will let all know.

Thanks Danny a very kind offer, as Mazlot said , I'm sure most people will put in a bit extra to cover it. I for one will.

They are dropping like flies at QR so I was unable to get an answer on the timing.

We will just have to see if we have it when we get there.

If we do have it, I think JBT and I have come up with a solution for paying for it.

Bring your thong Mazlot :wink:
