If you're worried about the on track traffic, or simply the drive, you could do one of the come and try sessions at Sandown.

I haven't driven Winton, depending on scheduling might come up with my brother's MX5- need to get him on the track!

I've never heard of these at Sandown? Do you have a link? How much does it cost? What are the regulations?

I was going to day trip it, but that does make it a long day.

I'll make sure to bump the thread closer to the day, but still, people should ensure enough time beforehand to make sure their car is ready -- oil and coolant topped up, air in tyres, tune has been logged and known to be safe, etc

We should organize some cheapo motel rooms (too cold for camping or sleeping in car lol)

I'm going to pull out. I've been talked out of it by a few people.

I don't think I could afford for anything to go wrong without insurance.

I'll have a spare helmet if you want to track it rather than spectate

And man i hope the weather is ok.

Okies, throw the helmet in just in case lol. What about meeting at the McDs on the corner of the Hwy near your place at 630. Head off from there?
