Hello Everyone,
The track is progressing to plan. We will probably hold our first meeting in april /may and currently have approx 50 new cars being built or are ready to race. Also there around 50 cars racing out of adelaide for other clubs so we are looking at big feilds of cars and some very competative racing. Because of dirtcircuits unlimited grades we have some interesting cars in the pipeline ranging from 500hp / 700kg 6.2 L chev powered open wheelers, Ex speedway super sedans, mid mounted steel body torranas & commodores and then your budget racers in the lower classes. We already have JC member "HRT 666" who is building up a tough vk, 308, Turbo 350, 9" combo and will be very competative.
You don't need to spend a fortune to come and have some fun. I have recently started building a XF street stock. The total cost including the price of the car will be $600-$700 dollars. If you have basic mechanical and welding skills you can fit your own cages and material costs are approx $200. Throw in a race seat, harness and fire extinguisher and you are away.
If anyone is keen to become involved / build a car, you can contact me direct on 0447739992. We have a comprehensive rule book ($10), which will give you all the info you need to build a car and compete in a dirt circuit race meeting. Membership is only $30annually and a $10 nomination fee is required per race meeting, which makes it the cheapest form of motorsport in S.A currently.
Hopefully we see a few of you guys out there spectating at our first racemeeting it should be an eye opener for Adelaide motorsport fans.
Cheers
Matt
Here's a few current pictures of the track. We estimate speeds of 140+ kph will be achieved on the 700m circuit.
