Aircooled VW South Africa

No lap time limit guy, can even take a bus And anyway, you pay per driver, not per car! so you can rock up in two cars and still drive both and only pay for your one driver stamp...

We could make a really cool day out of this! Maybe we should think about next months track day? gives 4 or so weeks to get our cars ready...

I would like to join also. I hate standby it always interferes with other plans over weekends. Would have to sort out a few small things before then. Who would be going so far?

I will attempt to go for a track day

If you do decide to go with the bug, I would suggest over filling the engine oil just a tad to help with oil starvation through the corners. Even if you are not going fast a non baffled sump on a t1 engine can run dry quickly. A deep sump would obviously help a lot.

not to sound too brave but had a crack at Kyalami and ended up better than average on a superbike track day at the very first go

Anyone can go fast in a car, but on a bike... it's a completely different story. I've done a 1:14,1 in my bug around Zwartkops and only a 1:22 on my GSXR. See what I mean.

I would most certainly want to give it a go

Is this like a normal track day for us ordinaries? If so I'd like to go,
Just need to get that Gotech system going before then!

18th and 19th of May is historic racing at Kyalami! 20th will be too much of a push for me, I still need to do a lot of race prep on my Birkin let alone play with the bug! June would be better for me. But I can always join you guys at a later stage in the year for a second track day...

Would be fun to run a few modified bugs around the track, can see if my NA car can keep up with your Charged cars...

Great so who's game?

1. Bratjie

Put me up for number 2. I will have to sort out a thing or 3 but I dont want to miss it The only requirement is a helmet right? Other than a car in good condition I mean.

Should'nt we move this to the events thread
1. Bratjie
2. Wentzel

who else is game?

No one else at this stage? How about the end of June? Will that be a better choice?

For me, yes, june is much better.

If you guys feel like it, there is historic racing on the 19th of may at Kyalami, Come take a look and see whats there...

We're racing at Kyalami, so June would be better if the cars hold up...

The final discussion was to go in june. Who will be going? Which date will it be?
