************UPDATE************

NEW POSITIONS AVAILIBLE.


In the Space of the last 5 days there has been a DRASTIC few changes to this event. Courtesy of two things....

1/ Insurance.
2/ Cost.


Willowbank have attracted a different insurance policy for this event now. This hampers the event greatly in my eyes. Unfortunatly this event is costing a substancial amount of more money. In an effort to keep costs UNDER $10 000, i have had to ask ALL CARS that run faster than an 10.99sec 1/4 mine to relinquish their position, OR bring a car that fits the requirements. (I am offering them a full refund of course)

THIS IS OUT OF MY HANDS. I had a track agreement and EVERYTHING, but unfortunatly, in todays world insurance talks. So it was this way or NO EVENT.

To waylay the loss of some of the race built cars (All the Race Rotaries in sorry to say), I have had to open up the ranks to allow 10 new cars to compete. (This will only PART cover the costs the rest are being picked up by the events SPONSORS)

Entry is STILL $73.50 and i have 10 Positions availible IMMEDIATLY.

CONTACT ME VIA PM.

I have asked all the Cars that do run faster than an 10.99 to bring another car, so lets hope they do.

THE MAGAZINES ARE STILL COMING (Fast 4's and Hot 4's)

Anyone who has been around me the last week or so, would vouch for this change, and how it came about, ive done my utmost here guys, im sorry if you feel ive let you down at all. The original track agreement had allowed for these faster cars, but that was PRE Finacial year, and things have changed since then. Apparently. (Yes i am a bit bitter)

SO........Guys please get behind this event, there are a few spots open and still MANY MANY fast cars coming, (heheh alot you guys havent seen)

Please come spectate.........support this event and support your fellow board members! The chance to have the track to ourselves like this wont come along again. For a long long time.

I have cropped this topic to allow easier reading and more feedback. Please post all comments. and if you wish to race PM ME. ASAP.


****PROUD SPONSORS OF THIS EVENT****

McKern and Assoc Accountants.

Thanks Again.

I apologize for this.




Hi Guys N Gals,

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE ESSAY! IT'S IMPORTANT.

After alot of work organising things ive finally managed to secure the Willowbank Track for a CLOSED session for Boostcruising users AND ASSOCIATES, as well. I will outlay the cost below and all it entails, I would appreciate as much bravo and bluster as you like in this thread, this is a day for fun and ShitsNGiggles? lol . ANY ONE CAN COME RACE, only requirement is that they are REGISTERED on these boards. (they will need to be to PM me).

Please read the following information CLOSELY i dont want to have to answer the same question a million times

Numbers are limited to 60 Cars/Bikes ONLY. NO EXCEPTIONS. Those who Pay first will have first dibs. And a clear and consise up to date list will be left here.

The track has been hired for SUNDAY AUGUST 22nd for numerous reasons, the main reason it wasnt hired on a Friday night is that Willowbank would have had trouble staffing the event, therefore we opted for a cold winter Sunday, The track is hired EXCLUSIVLY from 9am till 3pm. The track is booked out for several weeks either side of this date as well.

With the numbers LIMITED to 60 Willowbank management expects each driver to exceed 20 runs at least! Providing the track isnt closed for an accident etc.

Things will be done a little differently on the day, cars will have a race number AS WELL as the users *Handle* on the window, so all know, who is who, races will be organised on the day, there is NO competition, its all between ourselves, we can organise each of our own races or i can on the day.

This is part of the correspondence ive been having with willowbank.......after my meeeting
****
Dear Chris

It was good to finally meet and talk with you on Wednesday. My apologies for not getting back to you sooner as promised but we all have been quite busy getting ready for the Tin Tops this weekend.

I have booked August 22nd for you but what I would ask is that you don?t post anything on your site until you are satisfied with our arrangement.

For 60 entries the cost will be $4400 GST inc. This covers the following:
? ANDRA event sanction
? ANDRA competitor levy (Insurance)
? Queens land Ambulance Service cover 9am-3pm
? Fire Rescue cover
? Christmas Tree, incremental Track Timers and Score Boards
? Race Computer
? Staff
? Track equipment.

I would require that the $4400 be paid prior to the event.

With respect to spectator entry fees, our normal fee for Test N Tunes is $15. I know that you were keen on keeping it around the $10 mark, however, in order to keep your costs as reasonable as possible I am suggesting that the $15 spectator entry is maintained with Willowbank.

The event will be limited to 60 race competitors who will pre-enter by way of Boostcruising.

The event will be run between the hours of 9am ? 3pm, gates will be opened prior to this time in order that the competitors can set-up.
There will be a food outlet available for your event and I advise that alcohol is not permitted at the raceway.
******


So to get to the nitty gritty, you can see the costs, to divide it evenly between the 60 compeditors it would be $73.33* So lets just call it $73.50! I REALISE that is over twice the cost of a normal test n tune, but three times the amount of runs, Im hoping (ppl were happy to pay $80 for the Go-Karts) you guys will see what a great event this can be, and get behind it! The $73.50 would cover YOU and ONE CREW person, so you could split costs with friends. ($36.75 each), and ANYONE (invite as many as possible!!!) spectators can come and view, costs are as per usual Test N Tune.


The overview:

Location: Willowbank Raceway

Date : August 22nd

Time : 9am to 3pm

Costs : $73.50 per car entry (this gets Driver and ONE passenger in free of charge) $15 per Spectator entry.

Positions Available (this number WILL be adjusted after each pre-payment) : 10

Eligible Entrants: Any Boostcruising Registered User. ANY one can spectate.

Equipment required : Obviously a car or bike (stock or race bred, doesnt matter guys!) Long Pants, Long sleeve Shirt, Helmet, Enclosed Shoes.

Payment options : You can come into WASP Performance on the Gold Coast (see Banner Advertisement) and pay in person. Or PM my account on here and You can Direct Debit me the money, (I will give bank details thru PM's) Anyone who has used this method of payment before through me, can vouch for me, if thats an issue. Alternativly you can organise to pay me when im out one night, thou i DO NOT prefer this option.

On the Day : I will be at the track from 8am for people who wish to get their early and set up, I will PERSONALLY greet and finalise all entries on the day, and will handle ALL relations will Willowbank. My Mobile number will be availible to all on the day.

Last and not least, if your car is stock, who cares!! come out and race ya mates in a smaller enviroment, if you have a grudge to settle, this is the time and place to do it! All runs on the day will be recorded for tranfer to the boards after the event, so all can see how every one did

We need the 60 cars to come to balance the cost out, if we do not reach 60 entries then I may have to revise the day (thou with the amount of people who read these boards , i don't think it will be a concern, you can always get friends who wish to race to register through your computer).

**update** No Licence is required to race at willowbank.

ALL ARE WELCOME THERE IS NO DISCRIMINATIONS OR PROBLEMS.

Lets have a great day out!! Thanks again for putting up with this long post!!

****UPDATE****

I apologize for the time this has taken to arrange, but Willowbank had to *reshuffle* their calander to get us in. This is a ONE ONLY chance to pretty much have the track to yourselves!! Dont miss out! As stated all are welcome, if you know someone who wants to go, get them to call me!

spectators pay on the day of course at the gate, as per usual.


ppl who have paid here........ i will be at the gates from 8am meeting ppl, and i also will have that manned by another mod in the event that i am racing, there will be a checklist of all ppl entered and some form of ID will be required to show your who you say you are. and the list will be checked off.

THIS EVENT HAS NOW BEEN ADVERTISED TO OTHER FORUMS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC. IF YOU WISH TO SECURE YOUR POSITION I SUGGEST YOU CONTACT ME IMMEDIATLY.

THE EVENT HAS ALSO BEEN PAYED FOR IN FULL AND CONFIRMED.

Just a quick question about the fuel.

Is there a shell servo round the area? My car is tuned to shell optimax only and has knocked before on ultimate.

I would think that with 20+ runs, plus the cruise there, some people might need to re fuel near the end of the day. Sorry, i havent raced before, and im not realy sure on the fuel consumption, but on a comparison with the dyno day, where 2 full power runs used roughly about 1/8 of a tank, im pondering if a full tank will get me (and other racers) through or not.
