Cost: $25.00
8.15am Scrutineering
9.30am Driver/Passenger Briefing
10.00am Track Time Starts
5.00pm Track Time Finishes
Following scrutineering and briefing, the format of the day’s activities will commence with a 3 x 20 minute observation sessions for drivers to become familiar with the track and flow of activities. These sessions will be followed by a 30 minute session where passengers are allowed in the cars.
Following these sessions the structure of activities throughout the day will be 30 minute sessions for driver only, followed by driver and passenger sessions.
Please note: speed restrictions – all drivers are limited to 80% of the potential of both the car and driver – THIS IS NOT A RACE.
Special Saturday Test & Tune Day
Winton Motor Raceway will run a special Test and Tune (Open Practice) Day on 30th June. This will be the only opportunity to test on a weekend date this year. The Friday Test and Tune on 29th June is still scheduled so it will be an ideal opportunity for Interstate competitors to do a 2 day test session and make the most of the time available.
The cost of the day is $120 and participants must have either a AASA, CAMS or MA Licences. AASA licences can be purchased on the day for $50.

Make sure your car has no oil/coolant leaks, fitted seat belts, battery is secure, wheels nuts are tights, no loose items in the car or boot.
The Car does not have to be registered, but has to road/race worthy. Tyres need to be in good nick, tread depth is not normally a problem unless wire is poking out.
There are normally no checks done of lights except for brake lights except if it is an overcast, rainy day, then there may be checks for lights as well as wipers.
Tow bar tongues and bull bars must be removed.
You do not need to have a race licence, club licence or indeed a car licence abut you must be over 16 to drive or be a passenger.

Food and drinks are available through a canteen
