    G'day guys and girls,

    Thought this might be of interest to the Toyota 86 and AE86 owners

    If enough interest is gathered we will meet out Penrith way and form a convoy up there. Anyone keen, come along to the meet point even if you don't have an xx86 , the drive is still worth it.

    For now register your interest here

    So it's says laps of the track, but do you get to drive fast? Or is it just drive around it at the speed limit? Cause the latter would be lame, but given that its open to the public and doesn't seem to require a cams license or anything I'm guessing its the latter...

    I did this with V8 Supercars last year in my Williamson Group C RA40 Celica and it was following a pace car supposedly at 80km/h, we made some noise across the top and let loose down Conrod when it got to 7800rpm in 4th (160km/h). Was a blast and well worth the trip.

    I will consider getting my TTA Grp A AE86 GT coupe up there to do some laps. It did the Bathurst 1000 back in 1986, 87 and 88 when it won its class. Now to drive it myself would be a blast. If it is for regoed cars then I am out.

    The guys hosting the event were the ones who started this thread... I'm sure they'll answer our questions soon

    I'd consider towing my car up there for this too

    Well looks like I am going to this event.

    I met with the people yesterday in Melbourne to discuss this event and other opportunities.

    This is a CAMS controlled event for the Toyota 86 3lap session will be at 80kms/h using the whole track and racing lines. Reason being is the drivers do not need a cams lisc, rollcage and helmets etc, therefore it has to have limits. It is also closed event so rego is not mandatory.

    There is an entry fee which is a bargain for what you get. As I said above, it was more like a spirited drive once it happened and it was well worth the trip. Numbers are limited and cut off for entries is early March, so get in before you miss the chance

    This event is the real deal, so if you own an 86 ZN6 or AE86 check it out and register by contacting Kat as per the flyer in the first post . More info here
