On the track. From my understanding we'll be using the front straight and the little shortcut bit from the esses to the straight.

as Brad said, given its a public holiday that day you may find it hard to get one & if you do the price will be HUGE....

however in saying that, I do know that Porirua City Towing will go that far & return with a vehicle...but as said...not cheap

So whats the deal with this?

I'd assumed it was going to be something similar to dual car sprints all day at the track?

Being an autorcross, there will be 2 cars on the circuit at a time?

I is getting confused.

No, sprints are in the afternoon. I'm not 100% on the format of the morning autocross.
