Autocross Challenge


Harbour Capital Car Club is pleased to announce a new Sealed Autocross series, to run at the Slipway venue in Brooklyn. This is a great way for beginners to join the Wellington Motorsport community, and for the old hands to hone their skills.

There are four rounds scheduled
July 12th [past]
August 30th
October 4th
November 15th

Points are decided by your fastest timed run on the day. No complicated classes, first past the post takes home 25 points, and the points decrease by one point per position.

You can drop your worst round (in case you have to get to a wedding or funeral on the same day as one of our rounds!), so the best three results from the four rounds decide our overall winner.

$30 per round, and you can enter as few or as many rounds as you choose.

First prize for the series is $100 in BP vouchers; additionally Photoworks start page will chose a worthy contender for Most Improved, and a “Thanks Mate” award winner from our helpers.

Any MotorSport compliant vehicle can enter, so if you’ve got anything from a Daihatsu Charade, Toyota Supra, Porsche 911, or a Fiat Uno, we will be happy to see you there.

I'm putting in my request for warm sunny weather now. Is good even in the wet though

[jakesae101]

*rubs hands * car should be running 14psi w2a intercooler semi slicks (atleast the fronts) and trd rear coilovers and also putting in request for no rain

[pc]

Bring the road tyres as well though, my oldish hardish semi slicks were way worse than my road tyres up there at the rain at near zero temperatures.
Normally the semis are way better.

[jakesae101]

my normal rd tyres are absolute poo in the wet

[TazzieDevil]

just got word that my rear wheel brace isn't as complete as it should be
Hoping that it'll be done and ready by then.

[Chelles]

The Cor-roll-over is looking like it will be back to claim the most body roll prize.

[Munkvy]

I will be there again, hoping for rain again. Although this time, not to be beaten by a mitsi!

[toymato]

I will be there with tyres that match the weather - not! It will be still be fun.

[cogent]

will blitzkrieg return, or will a new performance platform appear on the grid? this is the question no doubt on everyone's minds.

[Leon]

will blitzkrieg return

Have you sorted that battery tie down yet?

[cogent]

good point, i must not forget to have that sorted just in case i need to run the bimmer again

[gurutasker]
