    So if a track day goes ahead, are we gonna be looking at spending about $200-$250?

    it would look that way yes, alot of money but if you're keen would be a top day.
    We need a firm commitment from people who intend to come once we get a date and everything set.

    Realistically I would say more if your going to oil change before the track day and bleed your brake lines.

    It's up to you how far you want to go with upkeep though.

    it could be that it will cost a lot for the day. Is there any other cheaper alternative? Just an idea.

    Having thought about it - Wakefield is a pain, but definitely the better option.
    I'd think twice about EC, but would probably still front up if that's what everyone else wanted. $250 is a bit though, so I can understand the reluctance. To put it into context though, that's how much it cost to do the 6 laps around Wakefield in the Auscar
    This way, you get to spend a good part of the day doing it....
    The 2 hour drive would seem more worthwhile...

    the cost of day at the track may draw people away, also the fact that many of us dont have a car for the track
    i personally would come along anyway, but cant see that happening with everyone
    i say, if u wanna make it BIG, make it interesting and approachable for everyone, from the guys with little mk1 diesels, to the top of the line dub owners

    Ray don't worry will flash your car before then and it will be ok

    Maybe possibly a cruise and make another day to the track for all the bigger cars. I went through to Wollongong a few weeks ago great cruise went to the light house which there wasn't a shortage of hectics in there civic's. Just one dub...ME! lol. But it was a enjoyable cruise and not one cop on the way down there and back, don't know why but it was good.

    We made it back fairly quickly though only 40 minutes no thanks to the speeds we were doing hehe. But there is plenty of choices I know that track day will be expensive though for me anyway.
