Neraj,

I first went to this event 2 years ago. They run four or five groups on the
day arranged in levels of experience. There are plenty of really experienced
instructors available for novices. Before they let the novices loose they
give them a full training session (lecture, track evaluation, slow speed
laps showing racing lines etc). Track time is split equally between the
groups so everyone get maximum track time.

As mentioned in the sup. regs you need to be a member of a cams affiliated
club and have a cams level two licence. Both of theses are very easy to get
you just need to hand over a few $. To become a member of Nissan Datsun
Sports Owners Club (NDSOC) is $60 and a cams level two licence is $66. Both
last for 12 mths and allow you compete in other events (sprints, hillclimbs
etc).

>I've never been on a track and just want to find the
limits of my driving capability and car, rather than
do on the street! 

After a few track days you will find that the absolute upper limits of any
road car can only be really found on the track as there are too many
limiting factors in street driving (cops, pedestrians and other cars to name
a few). Awaiting flames.... But I've done the spins on the track to prove
it.

If you are interested come along to the next NDSOC general meeting 8pm, 3rd
of OCT at the Whitehorse Inn (bistro), Burwood Rd Hawthorn (opposite
Hawthorn station). I will be able to sort out any of the paperwork then.

Regards
Trev
NDSOC Competition Secretary

Hey guys,
Just checking out the events calender. Apparently the
track day is organised "For those who have not been on
a race track before this is the ideal opportunity to
come out and have some fun."
But i'm a bit confused as i was reading the rgs and it
says i need a CAMS licence etc...?
I've never been on a track and just want to find the
limits of my driving capability and car, rather than
do on the street!

Regards,
Neraj.
