Affordable circuit racing

[JDMracer]

Hi all,

I currently compete in a racing series called Top Gear at Queensland Raceway in a WRX STi (please don't hold that against me ) We are about to start our own JDM class which will cover all late model (1990 onwards) makes from Subaru, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Honda, mazda etc and though a few of you might be interested. We are looking to attract those people with modified street cars that currently compete in supersprinting etc and are looking to take the next step and go circuit racing. The good thing about the Top Gear series is that modifications to your car are basically unrestricted and the only safety requirements are roll cage, harness and battery kill switch. Cost is usually $95 pre entry or $120 on the day and a licence will cost you $200 for the year. You'll get a qualifying session in the morning and four, 5-7 lap races during the one day. So if you think you might be interested our first outing for the new class will be September 17th at Queensland Raceway so come and have a look or contact me for any further info.

Might be interested towards the middle of next year, not necessarily in a Honda but it will be one of those makes.

What would the season be like? How many races over how long a period of time?

Top Gear race meetings are held throughout the year. We generally have 7 meetings during the year that begin in February and finish in November. Each meeting consists of qualifying first up then four 5-7 lap races during the day.
