FRIDAY PRACTICE
Friday Practice will be available as usual and will be conducted by the ARDC and Sydney Motorsport Park. It commences with a compulsory driver’s briefing at 8:00am and the event will start at 8:30am.
Entry and further details are available online at this link.
SYDNEY MOTORSPORT PARK GPS TRACKING SYSTEM
Sydney Motorsport Park has introduced a GPS tracking system for vehicles on track, which requires a transponder to be fitted to your vehicle. This is part of a system that will eventually replace some flag marshal positions and it will also enable a quicker response time to any incident on track, but at this stage we are assisting the ARDC in trialling the GPS system under race conditions.
ARDC staff will be available to issue the devices and advise on how to mount them at sign-on for Friday practice and both Saturday and Sunday mornings. These devices require recharging each night, so they need to be returned to the race secretary’s office after your last race each day.
BUMP IN
Bump-in will be from 5.30 pm on the Thursday. There is another group using parts of the circuit, including the skid pan until then.
The skid-pan will be available for those providing their own accommodation, and any trailers may be left on the skid-pan overnight. Early access to the circuit will be available on Friday.
PADDOCK LAYOUT AND USE
A paddock map is at the above link. Please adhere to this map, particularly in taking up a position on the skid pan. Also, please assist by parking your tender vehicle and trailer in the designated parking areas (not the paddock.)
HSRCA volunteers will be on hand on Thursday evening to assist with paddock management and directions.
RACE MEETING SIGN ON AND SCRUTINEERING
Entry passes and HSRCA sign-on will be available in the Hinxman Room from 11:00am Friday morning (practice day). Please bring the following:
