Might as well start a new thread for a new Track Day...

The 22nd of February is confirmed as the Oran Park Track Day for 2009.

Can those interested in going again let me know?

Well I took a little pride in the previous 'Track Day Anyone' thread getting up to 231 posts, (the Number 1 thread of all time!) as I started it, but I guess you are right, new date = new thread.
Count me in, I suspect the SLC may be gone by then, but as my original post pointed out, one can have fun in any car driven on, or close to, the limit, so maybe even the old Crayford wagon will do!
C.M.
(I'll fit extra mirrors to let everyone past).

Is it just going to be another 'arrive and drive day' Michel??

Eg, with other people too?

I'm thinking as OP is a little closer than winton, I might make the trek there instead for my first outing for 09.. depends whether I get the ol' girl fixed in time though.

Arrive and drive indeed....
This is meant for the MB Club, but they are not prepared to put their name to it because of fears of litigation.
It is OUR day )Benzes) but also open to our friends...

And, as usual, if we don't make the numbers, then OP would invite their regulars ...

PS: When are you back in OZ?

Hi Michel, as per again, I'll be an interested spectator, and engaging in social discourse.

Because of reasons explained to you, I am unable to put Gleaming Beauty through her paces. However.....however, Ash Street, deserted on 21st...quick dash down the road, straight line acceleration.....Possibilities ? Regards Styria

Should've dropped it off at my place I could've "FIXED" it :rolleyes: whilst you were away and by the time you came back I'm sure POVO would be that little bit more competitive against you. :D:D:D

No firm decision by me yet Michel. I'd love to try out a slightly improved POVO to see if it can better my last times and this should be the last chance we get to do Oran Park again, but I reckon considering the housing downturn OP may stay open longer still. (it was supposed to close 10 years ago wasn't it) We'll see, I hope it does stay open for good. Winton's much closer and I want to compete down there and show b13 how slow I can go:cool:. We'll see what transpires early next year.;)

Let's play it by ear.
If you make it, it'll be a bonus for us all
