Haha Id love to see the faces of anyone who sits in the back of yours flat out sideways!....may result in casulties for passengers in the back playing corners.

They do hire it out for registered training tho . eg Motorbikes , trucks and buses.

Yeah ive been in contact with morwell hill climb club - The people who run this .
They are looking at dates and prices for this .
They would be needing atleast 25 to get a reasonable price for everyone.
That i dont think will be a problem

You'd be suprised Brocky, getting 25 people to pay a reasonable amount is quite difficult.
but we'll see what they say regarding price.

the skid pan in Tulla has been done by Fordmods before.
normally small groups.

Avalon Raceway run burnout competitions. Used to be once a month but I don't know if they do it every month anymore.

Also haunted hills won't be that expensive. There normal meetings entry fee is about $70.

DECA on thompsons rd do training for motorbikes trucks and buses as stated.
last time i was there they had a track day for MG car club, they had cones set up and were doing timed laps.
might be worth looking into but it aint no skids and is fairly small.

how cool does the haunted hills track look.
i wanna drive it. (john we need the track car incase i crash haha)

if ya do a track day i think you should do pre pay for it because you always get so many that drop off just before it or just dont turn up.
