Well, you're supposed to have a drivers license, they make you write your license number on the form when you arrive. But I don't think it has to be current or valid, I've never seen anyone check it, its more just to prove who you are and that you are the correct age...

Its $40 and valid for 1 year for any other events at Wakefield. Which you'll definitely take advantage of, because driving at Wakefield is addictive :D

Heh, I wish I had that much grip when cornering :)

You need not worry about that, the tyres give way long before there's any chance of that happening. Especially on a stock jazz. And being a jazz you don't get up that much speed by the end of the straight (I was going 140-150km/h max).

The only way you'd have a chance of flipping is if you were drifting sideways off the road into the gravel. But you'd have to be really trying to make that happen for it to happen in a stock jazz.. and if you feel it starting to drift towards the gravel you simply steer towards it and you won't flip.

If you're coming to this one (July 5th) I'm happy to show you a couple of laps how easy it is to navigate the track at wakefield without any worries about flipping. Its a pretty safe place IMO ... no major obstacles to hit if you come off.

The supermarket car park is a more dangerous place for your car than Wakefield. Seriously :)
