Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

      $25 per car x 100cars. . . . . . . . no wonder QR only give us (VW Boys) the option of lunch time or accident-ly relocated us to Lakeside. . I started to not like these people at all.

      Does many of us got CAMS license?

          I have a AASA licence, been racing sprints @ QR for about 4 years solid and just recently started doing Lakeside because TBH QR is boring.

            If some of us got CAMS, can always look at another option to go to Morgan Park. Alot more fun @

              If I'm going to drive THAT far, it had better be a proper race or sprints and not for fuddy-duddy-not-so-happy-laps

                I've had the ASAA a few times over the years. Racing at morgan park... would only be doing that in a dedicated track car, not the current. Buy a few hyundai excels and lets join that series, it'd be slow but I reckon great fun

                    I've only done a few driver training days out there so not sure how it'd go with passing cars in race conditions. The new section was just built last time but not yet cured to allow cars. Long way to bring the car home on a flat bed.

                    If there'd be enough interest, I can ask the guys at Safe Driver Training whether they'd run an afternoon out there, but it wouldn't be happy lap prices...

                          Forgive the hi-jack please; my son is about to go to red "P-plates" and I am looking for Brisbane area advanced driver training, which I see mentioned above.
                          Any recommendations would be most welcome!
                          Thanks and back to the happy lapping.

                                Sorry Steve - did you mean is it at QR or LP for the Happy Laps, or what track we are using? - It's QR for lunch laps 12:00 start at breakfast prices - $25 (as in the first post of this thread and post#50) and it's the Clubman circuit... unfortunately I needed to make a decision at the time - with the amount of miscommunication that has happened already, I did not want to have a delay, then talk to yet another different person and risk another round of mix-ups with associated confusion for people making plans.
