I thought i might make this post to summarise all the information in to one area for all the entrants and spectators to see.
Please keep using the original thread for questions and general discussion about the day.
I Will update this thread with more info that i have probably forgotten!
Firstly some information about the day/date itself:
GMH-Torana.com.au WSID Private Track Hire
- Location - WSID Raceway - Off Ferrers Road Eastern Creek.
- Date - Sunday 5th July 2009
- Time - Gates open 08:00 - Registration and Scrutineering from 08:00-10:00 am - Racing from 10:00 - 16:00 - Lunch Break from 13:00-13:30
- Spectators will require an entry pass - Each Driver receives 2 crew and 3 spectator passes so spectators will need to ask a driver to use one of their passes. NO payments can be taken on the day
- Everyone must please Enter Via SPECTATOR's GATE - Be there at 8AM for TINY to hand out tickets for racers
- Spectators not accompanying racers must PLEASE PM TINY with their full name so that i can sort out entry arrangements
- There will be NO FOOD available - Please bring your own food and drinks for the day. Gas BBQs are permitted - away from the cars
- Those who have Pre-Paid for Photography will Receive a sticker to put on their Windscreen - Please Place this sticker in one corner of the Front Windscreen so that the photographers know which cars have paid and will get their Photos!
- 11.0 Sec Cutoff - Due to the rules all cars that "HAVE A KNOWN POTENTIAL TO RUN SUB 11.0 SEC PASSES WILL BE NOT ALLOWED TO RACE". They were the words of John Henman. He did say that they were NOT the fun Nazis, and if by some chance the car dips ONCE below the cutoff.. you will be warned but allowed to race.. but if you pull it off teh trailer and run a 10.80... forget it for the day! (and again... sorry... no refund!!). He did say that if you are *THAT* borderline... to just roll off the throttle at maybe the 1200ft mark so you stay under the limit.. that way you can keep racing!
- EXHAUST - Must run a street style exhaust system - Much like the Wednesday night street Meets at least one functional muffler should be on the car........... (note the.......)
- ANDRA Licensed Racers - Must PLEASE contact me and give me their ANDRA licence number to be added to the list.

And also John's Latest Email to me:
� First, I will need your entry list of competitors (Thursday, July 2 at the latest).
� This list needs to specify the full names of all primary drivers and second drivers.
� Second drivers need to be listed next to the primary drivers with whom they are sharing.
� ANDRA Licence numbers, where they exist, should be included.
� The list must also include the names of any photographers you have approved to attend.
� When I receive your entry list, we print the tickets.
� For every primary driver we issue 2 crew and 3 spectator tickets in addition to his driver ticket.
� You collect all the tickets from us before the event � probably on Friday, July 3.
� Everyone enters via our main Spectator Gate (Gate 16).
� Everyone turns right at the roundabout on the spectator entry road and gathers in the first car park area (on the right hand side as you drive in through the spectator entrance).
� Tickets are distributed by the organiser to all entrants at that point. How you choose to do this is up to you Tiny.
� They then distribute them to their crew and spectators.
� In some cases, some entrants do not want crew or spectator tickets. These extras can then be handed out to other driver�s crew and spectators as may be required.
� Everyone must have a ticket (i.e. driver, second driver, crew or spectator ticket) to enter the venue.
� Children must have a ticket to enter.
� Entrants then drive down Castlereagh Boulevard to the ticket booth. At this point their ticket is torn and they proceed along that road and turn into the pit area (like we do with spectators on a Wednesday night street meet).
� The security guard will have a copy of your entry list and will tick names off the list as they enter.
� We usually run a full tree all day with these events. But we can accommodate a change from Pro to full if you wish. Just let me know.
ANY RACERS WHO HAVE NOT PMd TINY WITH THEIR FULL NAME AND ANDRA LICENCE NUMBER MUST DO SO IMMEDIATELY PLEASE! - I Must send this to WSID the Week before the meeting so they can have our tickets printed! I Also must have the names of SECONDARY drivers ALONGSIDE the Primary Driver they will be racing with!
Cheers!
