Question - will tomorrow morning thrash our tyres much? I have a spare set of 17's but I don't really want to Change them (lazy Saturday and all)

Raindrops keep falling on my head.....but that doesn't mean our ha pi lap is dead.

Songs that pops up my mind when it starts to rain this morning...

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.

a few of us are leaving at 6:30 at Calamvale Central. we will get on the Ipswich motorway via Durack.

Sounds good Sean, never been before and don't trust my satnav

Ok, I'll park in the one on the left hand side when heading up miles platting road towards Rochedale. Also makes it easy for you when coming from Logan Rd.

Only 3 more sleeps to go! SO STOKED FOR THIS!!!!!!!!! I'll finally be able to see what my car behaves like with ESP and TCS turned off.

Hopefully my camera mounting system will work for this event unlike last time.....

Hahaha, the old iphone on the headrest trick

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.

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.

Hello I am a new user of MK GTI. I really want to join the sunday race....

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.
