Our President’s Newsletter
Here’s the latest VARAC Newsletter – it’s now not that long to the start of the season, so lets focus on a few key issues the BOD wants to raise…
VARAC Off-Track InsuranceWe’ll all be using our trailers very shortly as we start on the 2011 season, and, sadly, we hear regular stories of trailers being stolen, often with cars in them.
You can insure against this – in fact, you can insure your race car, trailer and all your tools for the whole time that your race car is not on the track.
I’ve personally had this coverage for years, and regard it as a sensible precaution, so we’ve used the numbers of members in VARAC to arrange a very beneficial Off Track Insurance package for trailer, tools and race cars for our members.
The 2011 Test and Tune Day will be held on Friday, 22nd April (Good Friday) at Mosport from 9:00 to 5:00 p.m.
This is the ideal opportunity to get your car through its Annual Inspection and do some laps of the Circuit to blow the cobwebs off it, and you!
At lunchtime, we’ll serve the usual delicious burger/hot dog and soda.
DETAILS:
1. starting at 9:00 a.m., track sessions will be 25 minutes duration, with a 5 minute changeover/clean up period before the next session.
2. we will alternate sessions in 2 groups:
Group 1. Vintage/Historic and Open Wheel,
Group 2. G70+ Cars.
3. we will enter the track at the corner 1 ramp from the end of the pits. The exit is the usual way from Corner 10 – except that no cars will be allowed to stop in the pits and must move immediately through to the Paddock so we can control the number of cars on the track.
4. we are limited to 10 cars on the track at any time by Insurance requirements. Based on previous track days, this should not be a problem.
We’ll work on a “first come first served” basis but as this is testing, many cars will leave the circuit before the end of the session, so we anticipate releasing cars onto the circuit to always maintain a 10 car limit.
So you might have to wait a while until somebody leaves the track – but we do have it all day so there will be ample track time available.
5. We’re using the main circuit and there will be corner worker coverage at some of the corners, so we will limit this session to Licensed Drivers and race cars only.
Mosport is a handful when you are licensed and in a race car – we are not going to use this as a training ground for unlicensed drivers or street cars.
COST AND PAYMENT
We’re encouraging everyone to use our ONLINE REGISTRATIONS AND PAYMENTS system only – it makes organising these events so much easier if we don’t have to handle cheques or cash on the day!
We’re reflecting this in our pricing for this event:
a. IF YOU REGISTER AT THE TRACK ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT, THE COST IS $250 FOR ONE CAR AND $75 FOR EACH ADDITIONAL CAR
b. BUT IF YOU PRE-REGISTER USING OUR ONLINE REGISTRATIONS AND PAYMENTS SYSTEM, THE COST IS $175 FOR ONE CAR AND $75 FOR EACH ADDITIONAL CAR.
SO YOU SAVE $75 BY PRE-REGISTERING ONLINE!
You can pay online by Credit Card, Paypal or Direct Debit if your card has a Visa/M’Card Logo.
