Hi karters,
I'll post up some info on the Oran Park track and some information for those members that haven't been there yet. I'll update it as the round gets closer.
At this stage I believe the round will be held on the 'Long Track' (over the bridge and through the infield).
Gearing by Class - based on Long Track
* Midgets 71
* Rookies 13-68
* Junior J Light 12-70
* Junior J Heavy 12-73/74
* Junior Clubman 10-75/76
* Rotax Light 12-76/77
* Rotax Heavy 12-79/80
Directions to the track (from Oran Park website):
*From the city of Sydney
Take the Eastern Distributor past Sydney Airport to the M5 motorway. Follow the M5 to the Camden Valley Way exit.
Follow Camden Valley way to Cobbitty Road, turn right into Cobbitty Road and the Cobbitty Road entrance is less than 5 minutes away.
*From the Western Suburbs
Take the M4 to the Northern Road exit and follow Northern Road to Oran Park Raceway. Oran Park Raceway is about 25 minutes from the Northern Road exit of the M4.
From the North of Sydney
Exit the Northern Freeway at Hornsby and follow the pacific Highway into the city, Take the Sydney Harbour Tunnel and follow the directions from the City of Sydney.
From South of Sydney
The easiest way is to find the M5 and take the M5 west to the Beech road exit. Turn left onto Beech road and right onto Camden Valley Way. Continue along Camden Valley way for 15 kilometers and turn right into Cobbitty road. Oran Park is 5 kilometers on the right. For Family hill continue past the pit entry and turn right onto The Northern Road and enter off The Northern Road.
Entry for the kart track is from The Northern Road gate and turn left when you get to the top of the entry road, going round past the rally circuit towards the Yokohama bridge.
The track has a canteen facility with bacon and egg rolls in the morning and lunch and drinks throughout the day.
For those driving long distances to get to the round, accommodation information can be found at www.oranpark.com.au/accomodation.php
