So what if I boated it could PROBABLY beat any Datsun?? Or maybe I covered the vehicle in question in something promoting the Datsun website or community??? I just don't wanna pay and then have me car fall short of performing out there due to my incompetence (just like to add this will most certainly not be due to Brendan or jeremys skill level, trust me they are brilliant at basically all things!!) so I do have a back up........ One that is useless on public roads, can't use all the horsepower it has to offer
Please Vaughan? Be your friend

I assume you're talking about your bike luke? (since you refer to it as a Vehicle, rather than a car)
You can't run cars and bikes at the same time on the track.

The goal of track day is for Datsun members to get out and have fun, in safety with their mates, in their Datsuns. I'm Ok with Members running different cars if their Datsun didn't quite make it, but I'm mainly interested in those running Datsuns getting the track time they want.
"Can a Nissan run", I'm OK with that, particularly if it is an active club/forum member, even if they front in their Starlet or Commodore I'd be fine with that, not everyone has a choice of Datsuns to run. I want to see as many of you guys out there having as great experience as possible and others will also gain from you being there and us all getting to know each other better, and having an awesome time, focused on Datsuns. What I (I say I as I haven't taken this to a committee meeting yet) don't want is a track full of, non forum, non Datsun guys out there and our members stuck in the Pits, getting frustrated at not being on the track.
Why I want this to happen is so Chris can get out there and show us what his Wags can do and DJZ showing us what a real Zed goes like with James reinforcing this with the 300. I want you guys having a ball and us all having a good laugh, no stress.
Luke sorry mate, unless we only have a few cars, the bike can't have the track to itself, and the CCC wouldn't let bikes and cars run together, no big surprise I don't think.

Thanx Wal, This sounds like the type of event I had in mind, particularly with the car club running it, we can just get involved and have a great time and a good catch up.
