Since the last one went so well, Thought id start the thread for this one early
11th December 2016
We had ~6 cars last Fun day, Its a shedload of fun even if you arent going out on the track. Weather will be a fair bit warmer too which is nice :)
Gates will open at 8:00am with scrutineering commencing at 8:15am and a compulsory driver’s briefing held at 10:00am. The activities will then commence on the track immediately after the driver’s briefing.
Speed Restriction: all drivers will be limited to 80% of the potential of both the car and driver. This is not a race. There will be large differences between the speed of each vehicle so be careful. Anyone exceeding the 80% rule or overdriving will be flagged off the track and warned. A second offence will mean that it is home-time for you.
Scrutineering: all cars must have a safety check and receive an ‘OK’ sticker before going onto the circuit for the first time. Vehicles must be roadworthy or race worthy.
Clothing: must be non-flammable cotton or, preferably, wool – no nylon – covering wrist to neck to ankles. Proper enclosed footwear – non flammable. No thongs or sandals. All participants must wear a helmet which complies with current Australian Standards.
Sessions: activities will be conducted in sessions of 20 minutes Driver only, followed by 20 minute session for driver and passenger. Sessions maybe shorter than 20 minutes, depending on track problems with cars etc.
Also please be careful of other cars, watch out for them and give clear hand signals if you are going to slow down. Pull off and brake early when safe to do so. Do not brake suddenly when cars are following close behind. If you need to slow down, give hand signal and pull out of the way of others.
Carports are also available to hire before the event for a cost of $20. Contact the Winton Raceway office on (03) 5760 7100 to reserve a spot. Lockable garages are also available to hire for a cost of $50.
Remember to take your towbars off BEFORE the event
