Queensland Raceway Happy Laps (v.5) 27th May 2012 (breakfast)
Unfortunately at this stage I may have to give my spot away
My haldex doesn't look like it will be fixed before sunday regrettably.
I will definitely be at the next Queensland Raceway Happy Laps though!
Sorry I didn't notify you earlier, only just found out a reasonable timeframe
Hope you enjoy yourself out there on the track!

I'll add you to the list for Lakeside in June since you can't make it to the QR one on the weekend.
That will give your haldex a bit more of a workout.

Cheers mate!

Aaron mate, it's said that you have exceeded your maximum number of PM's. I'm just confirming that my passenger and I will definately be going
Also I assume it will be like Lakeside where there will be a guy at the front gate who tells you where to go?

Please check main list in first post of this thread to make sure that the details for your entry are correct (i.e., if you have passengers or not).
An asterisk beside your entry indicates that confirmation has been received for your entry.
If there is not an asterisk beside your entry, it means I have not received your confirmation for attending, and you will need to PM me asap to advise accordingly.
guys (and any gals) reminder about increasing your tyre pressures (if it's dry, I'll be running 40psi) and checking wheel nuts and all fluids for Sunday. QR is a much faster circuit with higher cornering loads and a lot more time on full throttle than lakeside which is relatively gentle on the car, if you stay on the black stuff. I haven't driven QR since the resurface, though it was/is a lot harder on tyres and brakes than lakeside and morgan park, probably due to the increased loads and corner speeds.

Good point there Sean.
I will definitely be checking the fluids and pumping the tyres up (also checking wheel bolts) before I take the car out.
Bear in mind people that this is the first time almost all of us have been on the circuit so respect should be given until we learn how it works.
I am now aware of some good spots to get photos from the outside of the track (taken from my passenger who will be spectating). But what I am wanting to know is, will there be road access around the OUTSIDE of the track to get around to different corners to get good shots.
My Dad will be bringing his car to get around (and to show off as well haha) so transport won't be an issue. Also dad's car is a 4X4 so if it involves getting his car dirty he won't mind.

Yes, there's access around the back of the track via a dirt road. I know there is vehicle access from the left hand side when driving into the circuit, not sure about down the right side. I can't confirm exactly where that entrance is off the top of my head.

That's the address for lakeside, this is the Queensland Raceway thread. QR is Champions Lane/Way on the otherside of Yamanto (can't recall exactly what suburb they call that).
