Time Attack Track day at the Midvale Speed Dome.
Spots are allocated on a first come, first served basis and if your name is on the list, you'll need to pay A.S.A.P. to secure your spot.
It will be a FULL day, split into a morning and afternoon session.
The price for each session wil be $90, or $175 for both sessions.
The morning session will run from 9am -12pm.
The afternoon session will run from 1pm - 4pm.
The Speed Dome is a short course, so it suits quick accelerating and good handling cars, but there's a decent straight so your fast car can stretch it's legs a bit.
It will be an Autokhana/Superkhana/Time Attack style event, which essentially means driving really fast around a series of tight corners and short straights against the clock.
You will need your own, or access to the following things;
> Licenced & roadworthy car
> Helmet
> Long sleeve shirt and pants (cotton is best)
> Closed in shoes
> Valid Australian Driver's licence
No CAMS or AASA licence required
Your car will be scrutineered before you are allowed to drive it on the track.
You will need to be at the Speed Dome AT LEAST 30 minutes PRIOR to the commencement of each session for scrutineering.
Basically, make sure the following things are done;
> Battery is secure
> Seatbelts lock under tension
> Tyres are not completely bald
> Loose objects are removed from cabin
> Your car is not falling apart
> Your car is not leaking vital fluids
Cost is $90 per session or $175 for the full day - payable BEFORE the day please.
Spectators are most welcome, but will need to ensure that they stick to the designated spectator areas.
You will need to bring your own;
> Seats/blankets/cushions to sit on during the day.
> Sunscreen, just in case
> Insect repellent, just in case.
> Don't forget your tools, and spares just in case!
> Lunch or something to eat. There are plenty of places close by that sell food.
There will be drinks available for sale for $1 per can/bottle.
There's plenty of room to make a mistake, so rest assured that the worst that will happen is your car might get a little dirty.
It's always good fun, and it's mostly at slower speeds, so drive at the pace that you're most comfortable with. Your times will improve the more you drive.
There's a chance of some professional instruction on the day too.
The money is NON-REFUNDABLE so if you can't make it, find someone else to take your place.
Make sure your car is reliable, and will last the whole day. The price is the same whether you drive for 1 run or for the whole session.
You may drive someone else's car (with their permission of course!), but that car will need to scrutineered also if it hasn't been already.
Lastly, the track is for everyone who is driving on the day. Each run takes between 40 seconds and 1 minute 30 seconds depending on the track's layout.
Don't dawdle, remember who you're after in the running order so that you're ready to go when it's your turn to race.
See you there!
