Ever Felt the Need for Speed?
Well, most of us have from time to time but have done nothing about it. If I was to tell you how easy it is to go & have fun racing around tracks like Eastern Creek, all for less than $5-6,000.00 (including the car), would you be interested in coming & having a go? You will need nothing more than a Cams Licence Level 2 (costs $130.00 PA & purchased online with NO tests), JCDA Club Membership & an average day entry cost of $220.00.
Please read on further & I will explain in as simple terms as possible what you will need to do. Bring on the Modern S-Type!
I had been using a 3.0 litre V6 Automatic as a daily driver & I thought that I would enter the car at CSCA round at Wakefield Park down in Goulburn. I couldn’t believe that “out of the box” so to speak, how good the car was to run around the track even as an Auto. I then entered in the next events at Eastern Creek & again had a ball achieving 190kph down the straight I did nothing to the car except performing a mechanical check to make sure that it was safe for the track.
Over the years we have all had a great time, made some very special friends for life & always had a great time around the track. If you have ever wanted to give this a go & always thought that you needed a full on race car – this not the case. We now have a Class within the CSCA Supersprints that suit our Modern V6 S-Types. I won the Class last year & actually won a trophy! Haven’t done that for a while.
At the end of the day after having a heap of fun, you pack up your car, insert a CD into the stacker, turn back on the Air Conditioner & set the Cruise Control for the trip on the Freeway. Oh – I almost forgot to mention that you can use the car during the week to go to the shops or even as a ute! You can find a good Modern S-Type these days for around $5- 6000.00. This represents a great value considering that they were around $100,000.00 when new. There are cheaper ones available but you would probably have to spend some money on it bringing it up to par, so it is worth buying a good one to start with.
If you want to know more about how to do this with a Modern S-Type, please ring me on (0419)213770 & I would be happy to have a chat. REMEMBER – when buying a car that is ONLY driven to the SHOPS by a little old lady during the week, her grandson was racing it at the Creek on the weekends!
