RE: [QLD] QR Again - Pick a date..

im planning on the ekka wednesday. 11th of august

RE: [QLD] QR Again - Pick a date..

Might do that one as well as the 11th, I'm thinking the 11th because I just bought one of those packages and I want to get maximum value out of it!

$499 for 5 track days yewww.

 

[mitch179]

Looks like I'll be on my own again, where is your stick QLD... where is your stick...

 

[GSXR750K4]

I reserve my stick for Lakeside Trackdays.

 

[Hessian]

My stick is in the bush at the moment

 

[mitch179]

I went and had a look at lakeside when they had some car sprints on, call me a massive wuss but I wouldn't want to ride on it, barely anymore run off than your usual mountain road

 

[Joel David]

is QR any good mitch? ive heard mixed reports lol.

 

[GSXR750K4]

It's the track layout and surface condition that does it for me, shits all over QR..

But yes, I have seen some massive crashes out there and numerous broken bones..

 

[mitch179]

It's rubbish dude but it's more or less all I've got, don't have standard zorst to do lakeside and as I said in my previous post I don't dig the lack of run off so I wouldn't go there anyway.

there is also morgan park but that's quite a bit further away than QR is already for me, takes me ~1.5 hours as it is to get to QR.

Put it this way mang, after EC you'll be like WTF is this shit, that's what I'm like when I come back from EC heh![hr]
Yeah no doubt the track is a better layout and would have to be less bumpy than QR!

 

[Merudo]

Considering where you're heading from Morgan park wouldn't be that much further if at all!

 

[mitch179]

uuhhhh not quite dude...

from my place to morgan park:

It's basically twice as far

 

[GSXR750K4]

Why do you have to go all the way around?

Why not take that massive short cut through Beaudesert?

 

[mitch179]

yeah that 'short cut' takes off 10 minutes according to maps, it's basically the same distance, you can drag the peg to go the other way and it's much the same
