Yes Im slack , I forget to post on forums cos the events fill up so god damn quick. If people are keen to get in on our events the best thing to do is sign up for our email newsletters as thats the first channel we advertise events on. Theres a link to sign up on our Facebook page - www.facebook.com/christchurchtrackdays

Totally agree with dumping the old structure , beauty of having a dictatorship ( for lack of a better term )is you make a decision and things just happen , you move on to the next thing and progress actually happens. FACT you will NEVER please everyone so some will not like decisions and will move on but thats the price of progress.

2003 for me , god I feel so old. The club has sure changed alot over the years , been a few idiots but far more awesome personalities. Iv had a few breaks away but still seem to end up lurking.

A wee video from our last event , check out the website to get involved. https://vimeo.com/132904681

Christchurch Trackdays next event is Monday 26th October , this event is already sold out but feel free to come along and see what all the fuss is about. If you want to sign up and have a go yourself our next events with available spots are.... Wednesday 9th December @ Mike Pero Motorsport Park , Ruapuna and Saturday 30th January @ Timaru International Raceway ( Levels ) For all the info on our events and to enter , check out the website www.christchurchtrackdays.com

I went with the Motul for both when I had my Sti. No regrets whatsoever !

Yes Fridays are test days , $70 for CCC members , $120 non-members. Expecting 29 for this one , usually around 45-50 but this event was short notice.

Also im sure youve been to a CCC pursuit sprint with entries on the day , last one I went to they were still scrutineering at 11:30 , I dont want my events being like that. I get stressed if cars don't get on the track by 10am

Because iv found from past experience if I leave entries open till the last minute then people leave it till the last minute , just human nature. Give people a deadline and they tend to get their **** sorted. Also gives me a couple of days to check payments have cleared and do all the background paperwork stuff so we have a smooth running event ( gives everyone max track time ) PM / Email me if you want to enter still.

Sweet , plenty more events coming up ! will be announcing more dates soon.

Bump - Last day for entries today !

To Enter or Watch ? Would love to see your's and Hayden's on the track together.

BUMP - Entries close this Saturday 18th

Sorry if my comment seemed attacking , was just stating what I do. As you've said Playday , or anyone running a trackday has no obligation to adopt any form of scrutineering or safety rules , there is actually no guidelines for it. Personally id like to see MSNZ adopt a trackday format under the Clubsport umbrella , and hopefully in time i'll be making a submission to the clubsport commission.

I do a msnz autocross level scrutineering on EVERY car at my events , problem with check boxes is people will just tick them whether its correct or not.

Plenty of spots for April , at this stage probably only 2 groups so HEAPS of track time.

Another Trackday coming up , would be great to get a whole bunch of Subbies along. Wednesday 22nd April - $90 Surfab will be filming , including aerial drone so you get a cool video of the day to share with your mates. All the details and entry form are on the website www.christchurchtrackdays.com

Time you bought it to a trackday as well

Was good times back when I first joined , think it was around 2001 , Many hours spent on CS IRC Chat. CHCH was pretty small , Mainly Myself , Nick ( WRXER ), Jason ( X37637 ), Shibby ( cant remember his name )and Peter Carmine. We used to have monthly meets at Rockpool I had this page going when I was CHCH area rep , must have been 2003 http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/blairthorpe/index.htm A few pics of my old BG5 with Jason's GC8 ( X37637 ) Active users I can remember Fastfour , Joker , CJ and Graham , Gareth and Ian Mallett ( cant remember their usernames ) , Garrick ( sirwrx ) , Andrew ( tremmer? ) Car shows were really popular , I remember going to 4 and rotas and hanging with the auckland crew on the club stand ( think this was 2002 or 2003 )
