Wakefield - Mon 30th July

Alrighty, now that I've finally gone & lashed out on some semi's, its time to test them... and fine tune my new Teins (will add to the suspension thread about this later.)
Im going down to the track & will be there about 9am on Monday the 30th. I know its a school day, but its the best time as there's hardly anyone ever there.
Im also gonna be there with my old man, he's gonna be testing his fire breathing mini.... something tells me its gonna be me trying to catch him!
So If you've got or can get the day off, come down. Costs are as follows:
Track time for the day = $100
Wakefield licence = $50 (note you do not need this if you have a CAMS licence)
Helmet hire = $20 (with $70 deposit) You can bring your own helmet if it is ADR approved.
Its not a timed day, but there will be a few of us there so we can hand time. Last time I went to an open track day during the week, I got about 35 laps in.
Also, Wakefield now have an onsite supply of high octane race juice as well. PM me if you're up for it & I'll give you my mobile number.

Be sweet if you could make it
Even if you dont want to run yours, you could have a crack in mine to get the feel of the track.

And fair play... it may be the same type of car, but you know its gonna feel different.

went down to get a good look at the rs2 and they dont have any
and now they are saying that they are getting replased by the V8RS they are close to the rs2's so I will try and get some put on befor monday, just comes down to when tax comes back
could go the $425each tyres lol but I think that would just be throwing money away due to not being on the track all the time
but if I get them or not I am still going to hit the track with you Ben

Its actually the R-S2 Z212

Either way, steer clear of my ass, I could only afford 2 for the front this month

lol they do cost a bit
but if they work its all good
ass for steering clear I dont think you will have a problem with it as it is the first time on the track with the car any way lol but if you count the gokart well I lost count
I will have a look around tomorrow for the tyres thanks again for the info

Ben do you run the rs2 on the car all the time or do you have a 2nd set of rims for every day use

They're on all the time. I do have a 2nd set of rims for track day but the tyres on them are shot too... In reality I need about 6 more new tyres

Grr i'm out. Sorry guys. I just started uni and can't even afford to get all my textbooks atm. Was hoping i'd find some good 2nd hand books for all my subjects, but found only half.
Hopefully i can make it to the next one you goto Bennoz.
