There are the whole lot of clubrsx people that have your email. RDC5 is soooo keen that he PM and emailed me twice for it.

Common RX-8 people don't miss out!

ILIV48 07-07-2006 07:30 PM

I will talk to Russell. He said he would pay the deposit for himself and the 2 other guys (S2000 & STI) and see what the delay is. Knowing Russell he has probably forgoten!

Why was thinking it is still a month to go.

Hey I still have not change my oil and swap the tyre over yet!

auzoom 07-15-2006 03:20 AM

Doh!!! Sorry long day at the skid pan. Yes I agree lets skip the rest of the month!.

Reminds me I better book the car in before its too late.

Requirements for the day? Am I right in assuming fire extinguisher, helmet, bonnet strap and the usual empty the car out.

Does anyone know where I can get one of those self lap timing thingy's that you attach to your side mirror and then put the transmitter on the side of the track? I want one.

takahashi 07-15-2006 06:23 AM

Requirement is what you said minus fire extinguisher and bonnet strap - but it is nice to have those.

There is transponder to hire but what you said above cost $600+. Driftbox is GPS based and it is $1200 but can plot a graph for you ;)

ELITE-RX8 07-15-2006 11:08 AM

Thinking of putting GT wing on for the track. and also have to change back to stock wheels..

so lazy.

spooncrx 07-17-2006 12:20 AM

what the update on the entry list?? Will more than 25 entries be accepted??

ELITE-RX8 07-17-2006 12:24 AM

i think its just that for those people not paying. then the waitting list will go up.

takahashi 07-17-2006 01:26 AM

I think Andrew is keen to see more RX-8, and I think he is freaking out trying to sort out 30 cars.
Note: It is a private function and there is no ground staff. Think about it. It will be chaos if too many cars at a time and it is not funny.

I leave the final decision to auzoom. I will try to talk to him tonight.

ELITE-RX8 07-17-2006 01:59 AM

last time when i went to winton. with some different club. was private also.

we had the first 10 to 20 mins for the new people to the winton. then from that one. every first half hours will be driving alone. then 2nd half hour will need to take a guy with you.

but if it is full day track. i don't think you will be on for all day all the time. and last time we had about 25 cars also.

just make sure everyday don't get too close to each others. and don't take over when turning. then should be fine. i think.

spooncrx 07-17-2006 02:28 AM

When winton have there car's only days, they just run open track, on and off whenever. Seems to work ok, since that most people only stayed out for 20 min max then came in for about 40 min for a break.

takahashi 07-17-2006 03:36 AM

It is your the rest of the people to keep the number down.

Car only days as Winton ground staff. During our days, they are in the office. Only the ambo guys is there.

We will work it out. I think we end up having a few experienced guy parking their car at very near the waiting bay and looking at the track all the time.

We cannot get a guy sitting at the duck out at turn 9 e.g.

No ground staff to wave the bloody flag - nor do we have any flag either. We reply on common sense on the track, of which I will address strongly at the start of the day.

Last time we have 11 cars - too much track and there are times that only 3 cars on the track, with 22 cars we can have enough cars on the track at anyone time and still have open pit service. 25 is still doable. That is our logic so far. If there is mis behaved driving it is a nono. It is not much fun when you crash and we wait for the tractor to come in half an hour's time. :( :spank:

spooncrx 07-17-2006 08:19 AM

there wenrt any flag marshel's during the "cars only" day, i think the bottom line is that no one wants there car to be damaged in anyway, so most should drive in a decent manner.

I know i only stay around the drivers in which i am aware of there skills. Otherwise i let them by or wait for a signal to pass.

Why 07-17-2006 06:37 PM

I got myself a lap timer for $400.00 brand new (similar to the one on my Kart) Even has a warranty.

http://www.aim-sportsystems.com/tgitaly1.htm

Its quite simple really if anyone does anything stupid or drives in a manner endangering any other vehicles they should be asked to leave the track. Nobody wants to have any damage done to there car.

Or.

1. No overtaking on corners.
2. Only overtake when driver in front acknowledges and waves the faster car through.
3. If you are slower move over and let the faster car pass and then continue on your way.
4. Remember its for fun and not for sheep stations.

auzoom 07-17-2006 09:50 PM

Sorry guys. Have been flat out with work and hadnt noticed the questions. I will update you all tonight.

Cheers

Andrew

Yes Why,

Your comment make sense and in par of what I have been exposed to in the last 2 and a bit years.

I will sit with Andrew tonight and work out a "rule", basically put it in a graceful manner unlike above j/k :rofl:

air23box 07-18-2006 12:55 AM

its a good idea.....stephen.....there is a few more ppl willing to join on the day....so how about we get the list up to 30 entries rather then 25? let me know...cheers...
