glenpos Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hey are you up for the winton day on 21st? hey mate, nah it would be fun but i don't have enough money as I'm doing the sprint, what do they do on the tampered days, is it just practice, and what sorta prices are they? cheers :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 5000 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 much better than a sprint day. At tampered you'll get timed laps with sessions of 15min duration. Probly 4 or 5 sessions and at the end of the day you can go out long as you like till 4pm when the track closes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenpos Posted April 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 awesome, but I'm gonna do all the sprints this year, and I'm gonna try and build a vt saloon car ready for next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
