Popular Post 1vaknd Posted March 28, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 so ive been in talks with Markku around running a trackday for my 31st at taupo mid to late august 2021 it will be 10 years since my 21st and id like to do it again the idea would be to hire the whole track again but run it as track 2 for hot laps/cruising/test and tune and track 3 for drifting there is also a school camp ground which mates have used previously for their track days and could be a good option for cheap accomodation i loved how my 21st gave alot of you something to aim for and it would be rad to see that again my aim is to run it as a very cruisy day with alot of oldschool vibes. maybe even a race for those with caged cars. im trying to align this with Richard Opies desire to photograph all the kp drifters and it would be cool to see alot of very seldomly seen cars out of garages what are your thoughts, would you be interested, would a friday work if organised far enough in advance (way cheaper for all) Interested parties Roman Kelvin Truenotch Spiderwebfx Mjstar Thousanddollarsupercar Rich1179 Joker Oftensideways Bearded Baldy Shgwag driting will be mostly made up of my mates outside of oldschool, a good few of them are past and present members and ill be trying to keep the majority of them oldschool toyotas (mostly Kp's) 16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfoot Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Might have time to 1. Pick up new car from other end of country 2. Carry out engine swap 3. Fit new suspension and wheels Keen for a track day in whatever I have running Edit: just saw the 2021 part. Somebody slap me if I don't have something ready 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyteler Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Depending on how everything pans out, this sounds like an event I would love to attend even if just to take some snaps as it is unlikely I would have a car available/easier to fly from the bottom of the world than bring the FD or whatever else up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thousand Dollar Supercar Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Yay trackday! I'd be keen to bring my Jag and spin out repeatedly. Friday would be no problem. Do you have a theme in mind for the type of entrants you'd like to invite? A friend of mine who's not on oldschool is currently throwing money at an EK9 Civic Type R. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoKer Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 rad might come for a look / old times sake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keltik Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Attended the last one, dead keen to come along again. Might maybe possibly have the new engine in the MX5 by then and I can spend the day trying to make rods come out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1vaknd Posted April 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 It will be rad to see a lot of the same faces along. What are all your thoughts on doing a 10 lap race for the cars with cages? also so thinking of maybe an hour or 2 Of frack time dedicated to time attack style hot laps for non caged cars. keep things mixed up for the drivers so it’s not just a day of cruising 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 The idea of a race really excites me, but I’m not sure how the motorsport park would view it. Technically you can’t run anything competitive without a motorsport permit for insurance and liability reasons. We’d probably need get away with an unofficial rolling start race though....

JoKer Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I'm equally as interested to see if an 'individual' can hire the track,as last time I looked only a Car club could Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
