Christchurch track day whos keen?!

[taylor]

Ive been a bit flat out lately with tryn to find a job and sorting out my mates cars and so on but so far the list of definite people is
1) Taylor -club member PFL black galant
2) Adam(me) -club member FL White legnum
3) Mark -Friend white RX-7 series 4
4) Arthur –Friend red mk3 supra
5) A few of Marks friends -Red MKIII supra, another rx-7, and a few other nice cars
The maybe list is
1) CHX_WAGON –registered user
2) Archie – club member
3) Chch tomos friend with either the gtr or pulsar
4) Ash – GSR
5) Jeremey - r32
6) Dan - 30det laurel
7) Tom - turbo starlet
8) Phil - rs legacy
9) Charith - A31cefiro
10) Brad - 400hp s13

Thats enough people to start a good half day or even a full day prices as posted above are
Full day full track weekdays 1350 plus clubrooms 100, half day is $800
With the people we have we can do a half day for roughly 60 dollars per person and full day for around $100, but in saying that if we were to go full day I would prefer to have around 20 people which would make the price around $70.
I am swinging toward the idea of a full day,
But now we need to get a date and marshals/flag wavers, I think we need 4 marshals. Any volunteers 
Weekends are more expensive still but if it is an issue for people to get a day off work i think we may have to. I would aim for a Monday or Friday weekday, i think the track has quite a few free Friday’s so that would be ideal.
FEEDBACK PLEASE>>>>
And taylor alot of the people on this list are your mates so can you get in contact with them and ask if between 70 and 100 dollars is acceptable to them for a full day.

10 - written off. It was gonna happen, probably a good thing not on the track haha
9 - sold
5 + 6 Hopefully will have their cars running by the track day. Were supposed to be running like two weeks ago now so who knows.

Il talk to the others and see if their available

Oh and adam. Im probably only keen on a half day. with my problems lately dont wanna brake anything and the cost of fuel....

[Adam.Findlay]

yip well if we get enough people to do a full day and we run it open pit you can enter and leave the track as you please so you can spend as much or little time on the track as you want

[Adam.Findlay]

Hello Adam

12, 17, 20, 24 of May is all we have available during the week, nothing in April.

I am not comfortable that you have the people available and experienced enough to run this day and so would insist that we have someone controlling the day for you. This is much more than just having the track available for cars to go round and round. As Motorsoc found out open pit does not mean people will come in when their brakes have gone. What they had happen last time out could have ended very badly and I can not afford to have any day end badly because people insist on going as fast as they can for as long as they can.

You need to control all aspects of the day. Too much can go wrong. We will run your day for you and will provide the brief, the programme, the control and will show you what the expectations are. This will cost an extra $400 to the 1350 track hire for a week day. You must gather the money before the day and be able to pay the cost so really it is a hundy each for a full day or say 60 for a half day....if there are more than 20 you can reduce the cost, if less the cost increases.

Or you can join others who are experienced at running track days and pay their cost. I can put you in touch with these people if you like.

Let me know what you want to do and when and go from there.

Still think going in on another clubs day would be the smarter choice. I'll volunteer for marshaling/flag waving etc as long as I'm told what's involved.

[Adam.Findlay]

yeah but what other clubs day could we attend, I dont know of any so thats why i am trying to organise our own day

[taylor]

1/2 1/2 day with the d1nz/drift south boys??

[djb160]

When I get back from Hong Kong, we'll have a meet up and discuss our options a bit more, how does that sound ?

[scott.mohekey]

When do you get back?

[Adam.Findlay]

yip a group face to face to discuss a plan will be good

[djb160]

Kaynes back on Sunday sometime

[Goku]

I get into Auckland at 6am, then fly out again at 10am to CHCH, I'll be home about 2ish.

I probably won't make it to the workshop day the following weekend, as there are things I have to sort out when I get home. How does the weekend after sound to everyone for a meet up ?

[djb160]

mexican and movie evening? Burritos and nachos etc. Oh and your Mantis died sometime yesterday bro, Sorry Janelle. Cats and fish seem okay though
