Saw, we can help with the alignment at the track on the Sunday. I always do mine at the track so its an hours work so all good.
This time round I will have far more time than last year as I returned from the Elvis festival on the Sunday night then drove straight to Wakefield. This year I have plenty of prep time for the car, most aspects of the event are sorted, so helping with the alignment should not be an issue.
I have a friend who lives in Perth who may do the drive with you. He is a mechanic who helped with my car on a few occasions. Leave it with me for a few days to see what I can do.
Five weeks to go.
I would like to see a few NA MX5's taking on the MR2's. Also the FT 86's. All Street class under 2ltr. Will be a good battle.

You will need to test fit some rims and let us know what you need. Mine are 38mm/8"/9"/17"
I'm pretty sure Highlander has some spare rims (16"s).
Steve I think youwill find that AWs are 4 stud wheels

Hi all, I've ordered some 200x85mm colour MR2 Australia vinyl stickers for all Trackday Challenge entrants to display on their cars if they wish to.
They will be supplied on the morning of the 6th at the track.

It's looking more and more unlikely that I'll make the 2014 edition.  Between customer cars, our other vehicles, and the fact that the AW is currently only half there, plus rally duties on the horizon, I could do with January being moved to later in the new year. Sorry, guys, maybe 2015?

That's too bad Dennis. At least you were trying to get down fir it. You could always come along with Aaron.
Received four more entries over the weekend. Two EVO's, 370z and SC AW11.
Will have a list available this week.

It's all right here http://www.ultimatetrackdaychallenge.com.au/ Best value and most enjoyable 2 days you can have with your MR2. Great cars, safe but challlenging track(s), lots of variety to suit everyone, and if 2013 is anything to go by, great people with a comon appreciation of the various incarnations of the MR2.

As Highlander said, the info is all on the website. You can download the info pack which is a PDF file. There are some changes to be made with schedules but otherwise there are no changes. If you need accommodation for all the days before, after the trackday you can book these in via the online entry. Look forward to meeting you all in January

As Mike mentioned, a couple of people from SA are keen. I am one of them!
Just before I sign up and all, is accommodation still included in the track day price? Or have there already been the 35 entrants.
I'll also have to secure slicks for the day, and scrounge to make sure I can afford to get there and back again!

Got my leave approved, will be coming down for the Monday, just to check it out and can lend a hand with stuff if needed. Car won't be tuned and won't have suspension sorted by then unfortunately.
