VIC Motorsport 2011

[Driven Threads]

Yeah...I did one in feb and benefitted greatly from watching one of the pros drive my car.

So much to learn still.

Good thread, I definitely want to try out Winton or PI at some point later in the year.
Hitting Sandown for the first time in the R on Thursday as an instructor/education type day which should be good fun!

[adzy]

Winton is awesome Dave, you must try it ASAP Sandown in comparison is majorly boring! You have to think about late apex's and a double apex, you have to be much more proggresive on the brake pedal in some points also... more gentle inputs required when on the limit due to the technical layout, love it

Wait until you get to the Island, Adzy - it's raises the bar to a whole other level

Another event is the 2011 Alfa Club Winton 6 hr on 15 and 16 October 2011.

One day, I'd love to put a 6 hour team together with a hotted up PD Polo. Given that my (fairly stock) Polo used under 12l/100km at the recent Winton track day, despite my best efforts to flog it, it'd be a pretty good endurance racer due to the smaller number of pit stops vs a (obviously faster) petrol engined car.

PI July 1st.

I am sooo hanging for the island! Sick of walking around the track after GP's and drooling over the sweeping layout of it

PI July 1st.

Realy? I joined PIARC but have never recieved email, newsletter... anything, I will check the website for this

There is a sprint on the 8th, whats on the 1st bro? Where can i find details. Cheers

[Water Boy]

Sorry you are correct ill be there in the 9th for the circuit day.

Id rather pay less and get more track time on the Saturday then get timed on the Sunday with less laps and more ego's...

[adzy]

Sweet. I better suss out my cash situation

[kaanage]

It's only $10 more for the Sunday and you can tell how your lines are working with timing. But you can do that too if get someone to come along and take times.

Some of us will be going up to Winton on the 10th to run the 2nd round of the Victorian SuperSprint Championship (and stroke our egos )
