Natmeet track day

Postby Matty » Tue Mar 18, 2008 9:21 am

Hi, is anyone going up to Winton on Sunday? I thought I had a lift organised but it fell through, so if someone can give me a lift (or wants to share one from me) that would be cool. I'm in Burwood but can get myself to somewhere else as needed.

cheers,
m

It would be great to have Matty there, someone PLEASE offer him a lift.

I heard FFG needs a better lookin' date for the day :lol:
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Matty, there's few of us going up on the Saturday arvo and staying at the Vic Hotel. I don't have room in the car, you could check with Fatty or Fattima. Otherwise Jake (blue94t) is going up with Randy from Nissco on the Sunday but I doubt they'd front up in time for scrutineering.

Some very useful reading here about driving techniques for track days.

Matty,
I am going up for the day as well.
Could be a bit cramped in the back of BMW with 4 on board.
PM me though if you can't work anything else out

I am also looking at going. Is there going to be a little convoy happening for people who want to go and have a look. If you need a lift Matty, I can provide one as well

I am heading up early from Melbourne to make it for scrutineering, so if you can get to Altona, or somewhere near here, I will be glad to help.
