Wakefield Park (Australia) 27/8/04

Heya all,

We had a track day at wakefield park just south of Sydney Australia last week, I thought I’d post some in car video footage of me chasing down a Lotus on the track.

wakefield is a great tight little track, and very technical if you’re to get your times down.

This was the Lotus first day out on the track.

first Video is Jason (owner) in the Lotus 17 meg

second video is a friend driving the Lotus getting sideways… beware 26meg

very well piloted scoobie methinks… standard hp ??

Looks like a fun circuit - pretty short and go kart like… should really suit the exige far more than 1300kg of scoobie, also plenty run-off which must encourage some brave stuff… cool vids.

Yeah -

Not so sure about the run off into the pit wall though

yeah Andy i noticed, there is that…

Why can’t we have some circuits like that ??

I would say Anglesey is pretty much like that, just maybe a little longer.

Cadwell is much more twisty, but much longer.

I agree about Anglesey…

Cadwell is on my list for a trial one day !!

Nice one Autosport - keep 'em coming please

yeh… true Uldis, thing is there is plenty more opportunity for MAXIMUM g-force stops at both those circuits…

Looking at the the pic above, what is that guy trying to do, kiss the other?

Cadwell is on my list for a trial one day !!

Mike - reading the reports on the audi cars, I thin you would have tyo be very brave to take your car to Cadwell or maybe put a brick under the accelerator to limit travel!

we had our spring clean exiges.com track day there last year… its not as frightening as you think… once you get to know your way round… deserves big respect at someparts but is an awesome place.

No casualties, well apart from my clutch slave cylinder bracket losing bolt… but that was on the way out before i got to the track.

edit: actually i just re-read your post… and you prolly know all that i just said ehh …

Rox
