    this isn't racing, it is happy laps. It is just pushing a little harder and having fun.

      Agreed.


      Also, as the organisers for these events Redline and Myself will be keeping an eye on everyone out there and if we see anyone doing anything stupid they are getting a warning and if they continue to flout the safety of these events they will be bannned from attending either event (QR/Lakeside)

        Thanks Clay - I have no doubt you and Aaron will be keeping an eye on everyone.
        Hopefully people will chill out a bit before then (ps. Lesson learnt by me and a few other drivers - just because the car in front can go that fast - doesn't mean you can!)

              • agree with above.

                if you got factory brakes, maybe start thinking to use it when you pass the 200m mark. I upgraded mine to Brembo Pads with drilled disc all round. My brake fated after around 8 laps.

                  You are welcome to join, but be aware that it is not a race, time trial or competition in any shape or form. Please read the blurb in the first post of this thread regarding the rules for the event, and if you agree with those, we can add you to the list. There will also be a driver briefing just prior to the start by the Track Marshall which will take precedence over any aforementioned rules, which all drivers need to comply with.

                            I am also super stoked for this, only 2 days to go.
                            Make sure you have fuel and checked your tyres/fluids for this one as the speeds are higher so it may push your car harder.

                            • If anyone on the southside wanted to drive out together, could perhaps meet at Eight Mile Plains busway carpark at 6.30 and take the ippy motorway out.
