Thanks for posting this up . I was made aware of the difference it made to me in results but just good to see it in print. Was great to get a result like that from a car that had never been driven and was just finished the nght before without any checking /tuning or even a wheel alignment or coilover setting change.

I think i asked before, but how bout the mr2 chalange in another state?? Maybe thers another cheaper facility?? Im not saying wakefield is bad, i still need to go down there, but just curious... New year new state, new chalange?? Still mr2 though :)
Just throwing it out there..

 
IMO, as cool as it would be going state to state, it does complicate a lot of things and the cost will go up significantly. Wakefield would have to be one of cheapest (if not THE cheapest) tracks to hire and has brilliant facilities (cafe, timing, lockable garages and onsite accommodation). It is also the most centralised track for all states to attend, which makes it fair on the interstate travellers. It has a hill climb, special stage, short circuit and a full circuit, not something other tracks have. And the biggest thing I like about Wakefield, the management are really good, they are flexible and supportive (who else would let us do a photo shoot AFTER hours!). They also run AASA insurance which is cheaper and less anal retentive then anything CAMS approved.

i retract my previous statment...

Thanks Arron,
Wakefield has offered to do everything it can to make this event a success for the benifit of MR2 enthusiests. This includes rates which cannot b matched. My instrumental input in making the Wakefield 300 the success it is today also has weight in this agreement.
Also, the Nationals is the other major meet for MR2's so any more could strain the budgets of many people.

Pete, we wont make the same mistake next year.
