Track Day - Queensland Raceway - FRIDAY 22nd August 2014

Since MR2 owners are pretty slack at getting organised, I'm posting this up 3 months in advance!
Yes, it's on a FRIDAY! You have 3 months to get a day off from work or pull a sicky (That's the Australian way right? :D)
 
Details
$80 for a half day
$120 for the full day (Cheaper then Slidewize! and a real track day!)
Track licence from just $20 or $50 for a yearly.
No need to register, just turn up on the day!
 
Layout
Course will be which ever layout the officials choose.
Cars will be broken into groups.
Groups will be sent out in 20min sessions, rotating continuously for the day.
No Timing. If you want timing, BYO timing - Cheap ones available from here: http://www.mrpltd.co.nz/.../289/racing-incar-lap-timer.html
 
Requirements
Wrist to ankle clothing.
Helmet with the Australian Standards sticker on it (Not a $10 eBay pocket bike helmet!)
Secured battery
All lose items removed from the car.
 
Passengers
Unfortunately QLD Raceways insurance doesn't cover passengers, so you will have to be happy with a GoPro riding shot gun to capture the awesomeness.

Looks like it could be the biggest MR2 track day gathering in QLD yet

Aaron, who is running this event?  

It's a Open Practice day run by Queensland Raceways.

be aware folks, practise days are not defacto sprints/races. all you will get is some track time, with no real structure to it and no timing.

Count me interested, though not certain. Knightrous- I would love to see that red beast actually on the track rather than trawling the car park (at the recent MCM meet)!

That's the plan mate. Looking to deafen some ears with the race pipe.

I will be happy provided mobs of people in HSV's and XR6 turbos aren't driving recklessly and using the straights are dedicated drag strips (ie, powercruise/etc).  I'll put my name down tentatively, not looked into what I am doing at work or if it coincides with Morgan Park super sprints etc.  Speaking of which, don't know why more mr2 blokes don't enter that, saw 1 mr2 out there in my series but that was it.
 
Aaron, did you used to know Luke Godbee or have anything to do with his dyno shop? (I knew he used to run stuff in conjunction with slidewize at times.)
 
Another question, does QR accept Cams license or you need dedicated QR license to participate?

For practice days you need the AASA/QR licence - either the 1 day flavour or stump up the extra for the annual one.

For anyone that wants to go over on their car leading up to this event, I'm hoping to have my hoist installed in my shed in the next few weeks. I will make it available to any one interested in making the trip out. I've a collection of tools and equipment and if you have an AW11, I might even have spare/upgraded parts available.
