Nissan-Datsun Nationals - Hampton Downs - 20th Nov '10

Post by vegie »

not mine, but reposting from the "other forum" for interested parties...

http://www.nizfest.co.nz/

this is the new website up for the event.
Hi again guys

We have been working away at planing this & setting up various things to make it all happen.

Just for now I will concentrate on the track side of things for those who are keen.

What we have done is divided the day in to two sessions, a morning & (obviously) an afternoon session.
Each will have three groups of 16 cars, each group will go out on the track for ten minutes at a time.
(We have kept it down to ten minutes as we don't want people frying brakes & tyres etc.)
In doing this we have given up to 96 people the chance to get their car out on the track & have some fun
Each car should see around an hour of track time - a fair bit of work for most cars.

Cost is $90 per car, there may be a chance to buy the other session closer to the event if there are spots available but for now at least you have to pick either morn or arvo. We are looking in to running a twilight session through till around 7PM so there may be some more time up for grabs for the super keen

At this stage we are very close to having some web pages all set up n running with more information & payment details etc.
If you just can't wait & want to register right away please just fire me a pm or email (nizfest2010@yahoo.co.nz)

Thanks guys
Glenn.

EDIT: oh & please feel free to spread the word to other Nissan/Datsun forums

That event would be boss! However i get married on the 19th (also my 30th birthday) and we wouldn't get off sneaking away like that. Next weekend is KiwiCon (https://www.kiwicon.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) which we are going to before going to Rarotonga for a couple weeks.

LOVE to go play in the GTR's

The current batch of hoodies should have well and truly reached their owners by then.
Going by the noises people are making I'd say theres a better than average chance that some more tee shirts will be getting whipped up too.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............

Shane I think you should so I'm not a loner cause I'm so keen for this...If I do it properly I'll be swinging via hastings to see some of my relations too so if it was timed right we could convoy togeths?

Would it be better staying in Auckland or Hamilton? It's between the two right?
