Willowbank is pretty relaxed. All they checked is that your helmet is to oz standards and then they give the thumbs up.

When I went to test and tune the other week they didn't even check to see if the helmet was to Aus standards, they just looked to see if I had a helmet. Awesome.

That has nothing to do with Calder.

well they are a major pain in d arse. ur car can not start in drive only in park or neutral.if u have a chute they will get u to pull it an thy will check it, have fun packing it up.make sure nothing is loose, make sure brakes/steering feels good. an also what they others have said.btw the track has never been this good so just dont brake anything its very sticky.

Last time my mate went they checked to see if he had a tailshaft loop and because he didn't he couldn't run the car. You might want to check and make sure before you go, last thing you want to do is go and get rejected.
good luck
