I went to the last one, and it was great! Large variety of cars, and plenty of time on the track.

If you want to really test yourself and your machine, give it a go!

It's a blast!!! HIGHLY recommended. Lets you use these cars to their potential and improves your driving skills at the same time.

Sorry we didn't catch up last time 98Club. Chilly, Joe09, and Maverick came along as well. Can't wait to see the in car footage we got from my car taken on Joe's camera using Chilly's video mount.

sorry for my ignorance, where are these "track" days held and what do you actually do ??? just drags or what ???

Hi Hammer,

The track day is run at the Queensland Raceway circuit. We run smaller versions of the track called the "Clubman Circuit" and the "Sprint Circuit". These are more street car orientated as opposed to the national circuit you would see the V8's running.

The event is run as a Sprint Event, meaning you are running against the clock and not other cars. We put a maximum of 8 cars on the track at once and space them out evenly. Overtaking is only allowed on the main straights for safety.

We have a maximum of 40 cars attend divided into 5 groups based on lap times. So the slower people run together as do the faster. Basically there is a group for everyone to feel comfortable in.

Generally people will get between 30 and 40 laps during the 4 hours.
