Id be keen if the timing is right, Im in the process of doing a manual conversion. I guess Id then have to get my car set up for this track day aswell. (thats if you mean racing around QLD Raceway) Not too keen if your talking about Willowbank Dragway.

what is track day?
If its the sort of track day I'm thinking of it will be basically qualifying runs around QLD Raceway. Peter Scott has a good article on Planet Soarer, a few pics and a bit of a rundown on what is required for Track Days. HEHEHE

I've been trying to get the punters interested in a track day for a while now.Qld raceway is a bit simple but it's safe and easy to find. I go to the wednesday afternoon sprints ( look at the Qld raceway website) $75.00 per day. Lakeside will be back on line for club events , sometime soon , it's a great drivers circut.I'd love to see a Soarer track day (any where) I'm in !!!

I would come and watch. Not taking my car around QLD raceway.
Next dyno day we have in Winter I was going to go Mercury Motorsport for dyno in the morning and then after that head somewhere for lunch and chat (organise some grudge matches ) and then Willbank Raceway for drags at the test and tune in the arvo.

Why not!! It would be great to see an off tap Corona laying it down around the track! Put those big brakes, Koni/King suspension and SAAS seat to good use!

Nathan , if you talk to John Tetley ( he owns Qld Raceway) , he may be able to piggy back us onto another club day. I suspect track hire will run at around $4000.00 per day , so we'll need big numbers (on our own) to make it work.It would be fantastic to have a gaggle of wide bodied luxo-barges belting around the track !!

Qld Raceway , next Wednesday ( 22nd)March. $75 for prepaid ( $95) on the day , you get 2 X 5 lap sprints on two circuits (20 laps total),all timed electronically. You need to be there by 11.30am for a start at 12.30pm.Just empty the rubbish out , pump the tyres up , bring a helmet ( can hire 'em). It's a blast. See you there
