Seems all are welcome to watch, briefing from 10ish for those involved. Gates open about 8.30, Documentation till 10.


Driver training from about 10.15, lunch then Full track after that, till about 5pm.


Entry Requirements:
• A European car, or other car at the discretion of the club secretary (Geoff said Forum members Datsuns are welcome)
• Current warrant of fitness or MotorSport NZ logbook (otherwise fully scrutineered)
• Cotton overalls or better. (Clean, one-piece with close fitting cuffs & ankles)
• Suitable footwear that must enclose the feet.
• Crash helmet (Must be clean and tidy with acceptable standard visible)
• A 0.9kg minimum, fire extinguisher with a steel car-mounting bracket is required to
be firmly mounted in all cars. (Fire extinguishers available from ‘Fire Protection’
resellers ie Placemakers, Mitre10, Wormalds etc)

I have Pre entry forms that will save you $20.
This is seriously the cheapest way to get out on the track, great value and Awesome fun, and a Saturday in Summer to boot, I erge you to make the effort if you can.

I am definitely planning on being there, probably not the quickest, but I'll be pushing as hard as anyone. I have a cage so can take victims, ah I mean passengers and all you'd need is some overalls as per drivers in this post. (No fancy triple layer race required, but no dirty Nylon either).

I wish I could take part. It's just not a good time for.

All go for the morning.
Fitted a new fuel pump, (new to this car), tonight, amazing the holes you can find with a bit of pressure! New accelerator pump fitted to #1 carb, all fuel now safely contained.
Would be great top see some of you guys out there, it shouldn't be hard to spot me, I'll be the guy in the Datsun! Come and say hello.

[Hey-mish]

is there an admission fee for spectators today?

What a great day out, nice and hot, no wind and a great selection of cars to look over and pit yourself against.
Felt great blowing off a V8C Manaro on the short straight into the sweeper, and taking a Lotus Esprit Turbo on the main straight.
The day was well run and very relaxed, full credit to the Canterbury Fiat Lancia Club.
There were Lotus Seven replicas of all differing theories.
Including 2 with SR20's
Mazda and Toyota 4 cylinders and this beast below!

In case I have compressed the shots too small that is an FJ20T in a Lotus 7 you are looking at!
