WRX Club Dirt Day - Sunday, 14th of August, 2016

ONLY 20 DRIVERS get in and pay early to secure your spot
To all those who want to drive in the dirt this day is for you. The club has hired the Dirt circuit at IWMAC for a full day of fun. This event has been run previously so some of you have been to the event before. For those of you that haven't it is a great day to see if you are interested in driving on the dirt whilst not being an all competitive day.

Please find below entry prices-

Drivers - $100
Passengers - $5 or pay on the day

There will be a Driver’s and Passenger's Disclaimer you must agree to and sign to participate. Attached below. It will speed up registration if you could print your's out and have it completed.

The drivers & passengers must attend the drivers briefing, sign in and agree to the rules. Both drivers and passengers will be given a wrist band that will be supplied once all the above has been undertaken.

Gates will open at 7.30am with the track opening at 9am. A BBQ lunch and drinks (bottled water) are included for all attendees. So, even if you are not running, come along and have a look and have lunch with us.
This is a private event which will result in a lot of fun track time for all involved with the focus on enjoyment.

Proceedings of the day-

* 07:30 - Arrive and set up camp. Please feel free to bring seats and marquees
* 07:45 - Drivers Briefing
* 08:45 – Car checks and sighting laps.
* 09:00 - 12:00 - Runs
* 12:00 - 12:30 - Lunch
* 12:30 - 15:30 - Runs

The RULES-

* No door to door racing.

* No official timing.

* No more than 3 cars on the track at one time. Depending on how the day is going and driver attitude, we may allow more on the track as the day progresses.

* Laps will be starting from a standing start on the starting pad you will be waved on to the track where you will complete 1 standing lap and 2 flying laps (this may be changed throughout the day depending on the general feeling - 3 laps is a good place to start as cars don't get too hot).

* When you are shown the chequered flag, your run has ended. This could be the end of your run, it could be a problem with your car or it could be a problem on the track. If you think you were shown the flag or are even not sure it was meant for you, GET OFF THE TRACK!!! THERE WILL BE ZERO TOLERANCE ON THIS, AND A SINGLE BREACH YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE.

* DANGEROUS DRIVING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AND YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE.

* STRICTLY MEMBERS ONLY.

* Helmets, Neck to Wrist to Ankle nonflammable clothes

* Civil Driver’s License Required

* Passenger laps you can bring people out for a spin (they will have to have Helmets, Neck to Wrist to Ankle nonflammable clothes)

* There is no need to rush at the start of the day - I can guarantee that there will be times when there is only one car on the track (and sometimes none) so you will get plenty of lap time.

May's monthly meeting and tech night was a huge success!

Josh, Luke, Murray and the rest of the team from MCA suspension lead a great discussion and included some great models with which they used to help visualize and clarify some ideas. They answered many MANY questions from our members and online.

Using a video camera and huge monitor, even audience members from the back row were able to see the damper internals they pulled apart to show how a damper works, what valves are, and how damper adjustment works.

Big thank you to the team at MCA suspension for having us, our committee members who manned our free sausage sizzle, and everyone who came to enjoy the meeting.

You couldn't ask for the weather to be any more perfect than it was. Absolutely gorgeous blue sunny day right the way through.

We started the day at Mt Coot-tha with everyone arriving fresh and loading with energy (drinks). From here we made a quick dash through some of the local suburbs and out into the D'Aguilar National Park for a scenic twisty drive to our morning tea stop at Mount Glorious.

After morning tea it was more scenic driving coming down the other side of the range and out to Somerset Dam and the Spit for our BBQ Lunch and socializing.

It was a really good day with some excellent driving, scenery, sunshine and more importantly; the people who attended. Really looking forward to organizing another club cruise in the short future.
