Tuning Day information for 2011 Download The fees, inclusive of GST, for Tuning Day are $60 per person regardless of number of hours at the venue. Venue opening and closing hours: Open 9 am; Close 4 pm The long circuit is predominately used; however, the short circuit is used on occasion at the discretion of the official(s) in charge. On the Saturday Tuning Day, there are two race car only sessions between 11 am to 12 noon and 3 pm to 4 pm. At the Tuning Day on the Friday prior to a circuit race meeting, access to the track is restricted between 1 pm and 4 pm to those members who are racing at that weekend's meeting. Minimum dress standard at Tuning Day is clothing that extends from ankles to neck to wrists. Clothing and footwear of flammable synthetic material, such as nylon, is not acceptable. Drivers whenever on the circuit must wear a safety helmet. Vehicles are not scrutineered at a Tuning Day, however, they should be "road worthy". The vehicle does not need to be road registered. A fire extinguisher mounted inside your vehicle and or a roll cage is not compulsory, but highly recommended. All drivers must complete and sign the CAMS Tuning Day Application and Exclusion form. You must sign on at the Club’s Administration on weekday Tuning Days. On the Saturday Tuning Day you sign on in the transportable room in front of the Race Office located in the pits/paddock. If you have any team members (pit crew) they must also sign on. Anyone who wishes to take part in the Tuning Day day must have a CAMS L2S Licence as a minimum. The licence can be obtained on the day from the club office. Entry to the circuit is via pit lane from the south ramp, ie adjacent to McCrackan House. Entry back into the pits/paddock is via pit lane up the north ramp. Warning signs are posted at each ramp. A canteen is open on Tuning Days adjacent to the fuel bowser. Only leaded avgas is available for purchase and then only for use in vehicles that participate in motor sport. Any person, in the view of an official, found to be racing or drifting may be removed from the circuit. The day is Tuning Day – not racing or drifting. All drivers who have not driven at a WASCC Tuning Day are required to view a short DVD about Tuning Day. The viewing of the DVD may be supplemented by a verbal briefing prior to driving on the track. The briefing is conducted by a volunteer senior WASCC driving instructor who does not work at the Raceway so most briefings would only occur at a weekend Tuning Day. Complimentary instruction in driving on the circuit is available on Saturday Tuning Day supplied by the Club’s Driving Instructors. However, it is wise to confirm an instructor’s availability in advance via the Club Office. Private instruction can be arranged directly with one of the instructors for the weekday fixtures; however a fee may be incurred. Passengers are not permitted at any time whilst you are on the track except, approved instructors permitted. |
