    Default Sick of being ripped off for track time in sydney?

    yeah well, lets have some fun boys, Get stuffed to paying $200 + for 4 hrs at the creek for the peanut.

    So here is some info in advance.

    No clubs, no licences, no fucking BS overpriced fees, no dickheads allowed, if your not coming to have fun Piss off

    ive seen how many guys are doing the travel 10+ hrs up to QLD matsuri, well why not have our own? and lets not share the track with 80 + cars!

    im organising a trip up to Coffs ( Raleigh raceway )

    its a 6 hr drive from sydney ( according to google maps )

    Cost / car for a full day of drift action TBA... around the $100 mark / day

    thats right $100!!!!

    9 am - 5pm

    Thats 8 hrs !



    this will be a 2 day thing ( may as well make it worth it )

    so you can see the options above.

    ill scout around for a camping ground. it will be the cheapest funnest Drift event eva. well thats the plan.
    will organise a pitch in for lunches and dinners, BBQ's etc.

    im not making any money out of this, NONE.

    WE need 25 cars for this booking

    Anyway, throw me some thoughts and discussion...
    all the haters leave your crap for another thread, lets have a ball boys.



    NA boys are going to hate... they do have noise restrictions....

    94.5 DBa @ 10m @ 6000 rpm.

    stuff stick a silencer up its butt if your concerned, most turbo cars will pass that.... an SR with a drain pipe out the back may not... but again.. silencer.. done skid , have fun.

    GO.



    EOI list... official date in OCTOBER will be confirmed within the next week

    Hey guys, can vouch for raleigh raceway.

    we had round 3 of the Raleigh Drift series up here on sunday just gone, made it a 2 day event with practice on saturday aswel. We drove up from Port Macquarie (1.5 hrs ) had 2 hours practice then stayed in Coffs ready for Sunday. Huge turnout this round had 40+ cars enter.

    The track itself is great quite a few tight corners aswel as a straight and a long uphill right hand sweeper!

    Noise restriction is actually 94Db, and the "10m" is more like 6m when he steps it out lol, they are strict on it and cars are not allowed on if they are over!!
    Camping is available onsite and is usually free when there is a series round on however confirming this would be a good idea.
    Also track time is shared with go-karts i.e. people come in pay money for 20-odd laps once they are done cars are allowed back on.

    If i can help out at all sundee86 let me know.

    Sam.

    edit: i believe round 4 is the the 2nd September..

    Hey sam, thanks for the track pic... saved me doing it
    thanks for the heads up about the camping, it was in my last email to raleigh... just waiting for the reply
    94.5db @ 10m @ 6000 rpm was given to me by raleigh.
    hay .5 of a decibel could mean track time or not.

    seen's as you have been there and are kinda local Sam, if you have any inside info or tips etc, Pm me with them if you dont mind.

    cheers mate

    I could do october 6/7, but not sure about that noise restriction, have other people with open trumpets been ok before? The exhaust is easy to muffle, but the intake is a bit harder...

    When are you looking to book?
