Please note – Unfortunately Lakeside raceway has many sensitive neighbours so to help Queensland Raceways reputation and our own could you please ensure that we arrive and exit the venue and surrounds in a manner not designed to attract attention. We want the venue to keep its community licence to operate well into the future.

Rules for Happy Laps – (They may seem onerous but the vast majority attending will have participated before and have always left smiling and asking to do it again – So here’s your chance)

HAPPY LAPS ARE NOT HOT LAPS or TEST LAPS

Happy Laps are for family cruising NOT performance driving,

So;

• Any car-to-car contact is an instant stop for the session
• Any car going off the track is an instant stop for the session
• 1 sec of tyre smoke is an instant stop for the session
• Speed obviously in excess of 120kph is an instant stop for the session; this is more than fair as there are sprints and drag events that hot drivers can participate in if they want to go fast.
• In addition, during Happy Laps;
• No helmets are to be worn by anybody
• No unregistered or trailered cars are permitted on the track
• No cars fitted with aftermarket roll cages
• All cars must have current registration and plates must not be obscured
• Drivers may be breath tested including by the Police – anyone reading more than 0.00 will be banned from the track
• QR will name and shame drivers who push the limits and cause a session to be cancelled

RSVP – Final numbers are needed by the TUESDAY prior to the event date via email treasurer@hsvowners.com.au. Please indicate your name and number attending. If you want to pay by Credit Card in advance we need your, number, expiry and ccv and I will process Friday before the event. The club has to advise and pay in advance so if you advise your attendance we need your payment. The event is being run at no profit to keep prices reasonable so what we charge is what we have to pay QR.

I look forward to seeing you there for Breakfast and some fun on one of the most iconic race tracks in Australia and one steeped in a rich motorsport history.
