  • QLD Lakeside Laps v23 - 16 Feb 2014 (NEW RULES/COST)

    Please be aware that QLD Raceways does monitor the forum and as such any posts regarding activities that breach the rules of the track/happy laps will be noted by the staff and you may be banned from the events.

    Also please provide the colour, make and model of your car when "booking a spot" so we can confirm who is out there.

    Okay guys, round 23!
    Lakeside Park again for breakfast ($33.50) which will be payable to me as i have to pre-pay to book the event for us now
    The Breakfast starts at 7:30am sharp and we should be out on the track by 8:15am after a safety briefing at 8am.
    Please be there by 7:15am.

    Rules:
    Note: This is not a dedicated track event. People have been warned previously about their driving conduct and, as a result, we have been pulled off early.
    No protective gear allowed (i.e. no helmet or race suit). At a minimum, please wear shorts, t-shirt and closed-in shoes with a grippy sole.
    No overtaking on corners, only on the straight. If a vehicle slows down and indicates that you overtake on the back section of the track, you may do so at your own discretion, however the responsibility is on the overtaking driver to do it safely. IF IN DOUBT, DO NOT OVERTAKE.
    If you are not overtaking anyone on the main straight, please stay to the left of the track and let any driver that is consistently on your tail overtake you. You'll know this if you've been watching your mirrors. To be overtaken safely, maintain your speed and line. Do not brake or accelerate, just hold your line at a reasonable, steady speed to allow the overtaking driver to execute the manoeuvre safely. If you think you are actually quicker on the track, then you should be able to come up to that car again the next time you reach the main straight, and then the roles will be reversed: The original overtaking driver should now let the other car overtake.
    All vehicles that enter must be road-worthy and registered.

    Passengers are welcome, however anyone entering the track (drivers, passengers and those splitting the driving) must have a wristband, which means that track fees are payable by everyone (but you get a delicious breakfast, which is BONUS!)

    Please let me know if you have any food allergies/vegetarianism etc so i can see if they can source something suitable.
    Menu:
    Toast
    Fried eggs
    Crispy bacon
    Gourmet chipolatas
    Baked beans
    Fried tomato for vegetarians
    Tea & coffee



    I am having this open to forum contributors only and you must be in a Euro car. Anyone can come and passenger with you. I am capping the number at 30 cars to make the costs associated with the event still suitable.

    When the main list is full, members will be added to the reserve list. If someone pulls out, the first person on the reserve list will be moved up to the main list. Unfortunately, if you do not make it on the main list, then we cannot accommodate your car at the event, but other members might be keen to have you passenger and/or drive with them. Any forum members remaining on the reserve list by the event date will be placed directly on the main list for the next event. Please check the next event details when they are posted to ensure that you can indeed attend if you are put on the main list. Also, reserve-listers: Keep a close eye on the thread for members who opt out at the last minute, because that might mean that you may attend as a main-lister

    Please post to indicate that you would like to attend with the colour, make and model of your vehicle and how many people you will be bringing with you. During PM confirmations closer to the date, I will be asking for your car's rego and your full name. You can be anonymous on the forum but you cannot be anonymous on the track.


    Directions for entry:
    Drive across the causeway, then follow the road to the right around the back of the track, then enter the tunnel on your left. Turn right after exiting the tunnel toward the group parking on the grassy area in front of the big yellow building.




    Anyone from the previous list will get priority placement on this one however if they do not wish to attend they can ask to be removed.

                    For the Winter Olympics?
                    If so, it's probably a better option :p

                        Clay, can you add me to the reserve list? Ill be taking out the P-car and havent really run it hard during the day, so unsure about heating issues. Will be there for photos and if theres any spots available, I might go out for a bit of a run if thats alright with you (Ill play for the spot if I run of course).

                          I wish it was for the Winter Olympics but I'll be in Moscow for 4weeks and Austria-Bad Gastein for 1 week skiing. I don't have the money to travel to Sochi as well . I'm hoping there might be few Olympic things in Moscow though.

                            Sorry for the noobie question, but what is the format for the laps (ie how many laps & cars per session and how many sessions) and how long does the day run for?

                              Breakfast, short driver briefing, then 1 x 30 minute session on the track at somewhat limited speeds (i.e. not race speeds but still more than enough to get the adrenaline pumping)
                              Usually we end up with 25-30 cars on the track which gives enough space for everyone to give it a blast without getting caught in traffic holdups.

                              Normally we are all finished by around 8:30-9:00am or so and then have a quick chat before going home.
