Modern Sports Cars Kumho Endurance races Round 1 April 26/27

Postby mx5racing » Sat Mar 15, 2014 10:09 pm

The first round will be held on the weekend of April 26/27 at Wakefield Park.

Due to the fantastic support of major sponsors Peak Race Tyres, Kumho and Wakefield Park management, we have been able to keep the cost to just $395 including a garage. As per our usual enduro format there will be two one-hour races, one on Saturday and one on Sunday.

It will be a great weekend and more details can be found here - http://www.modernsportscars.com.au/raci ... eason-2014

I'm struggling to have the car ready... Have entered the mx5 cup more on faith than anything else, but may not make it if I can't "git 'er done".

Def. won't be a starter for MSC :(

Once again we had a blast on the weekend!!!!! The event was run smoothly and and the racing was fair and clean. If you have any photos of the weekend please throw them up.

For anyone looking at making the step from club level motorsport I highly recommend MSC. Being an endurance race no one is looking to make a dive at turn one on the first lap. The rolling starts also help to minimise carnage and make it much easier for the less experienced drivers to get off and running. It is also excellent bang for buck, we did about 280 on track km's between 9am sat and 10am sun!!!!!!!!

Hopefully the one way radio suppliers improve the system for the future. I found it to work OK in the pit area but once I was on track I would only hear bits and pieces which was of little help. Once the correct infrastructure is in place it will be a very useful bit of gear.

BIG thanks to Chris, Zane and Brian for all of their hard work organising and running the event. Also Peak tyres for its support of MSC

See you all to do it again in August :)
