Understanding the Costs of Racing
Before diving into the world of racing, itโs important to have a realistic view of the costs involved. From the car itself to entry fees, gear, and maintenance, every aspect contributes to the budget. But donโt let this discourage you! With strategic planning and smart choices, these costs can be managed effectively.
Race Car Hire: A Cost-Effective Solution
For starters, race car hire is an excellent option for those looking to dip their toes into racing without immediately investing in a vehicle. One of the advantages of renting a race car is that they come equipped with the necessary specifications for various racing classes. This means that you can experience the thrill of racing without needing to invest in a car that meets specific racing requirements. Additionally, rental race cars often come with safety gear included, ensuring that you can enjoy the experience with peace of mind.

The Mazda MX-5 has earned a reputation as a budget-friendly track car that doesnโt skimp on performance. These nimble and reliable vehicles are a mainstay in club racing and track days, providing an affordable entry point for enthusiasts.
Why MX5s Are Ideal for Budget Racing
MX5s are cost-effective due to their abundance, low cost of parts, and the supportive community around them. Many racing clubs and organisations have specific categories for MX5s, offering a competitive environment that focuses on driver skill rather than budget.
Discovering Budget-Friendly Racing Opportunities
Racing doesnโt have to be a wallet-emptying experience. There are numerous ways to enjoy the sport without spending a fortune.
Supersprints: Your Entry into Competitive Racing
Supersprints are timed competitions that focus on achieving the best single lap around a track. They are an excellent starting point for aspiring racers, providing the excitement of competition with lower costs compared to wheel-to-wheel racing. Entry fees for supersprints are typically reasonable, and since the events are less demanding on the car, maintenance costs are kept to a minimum.

How to Prepare for Your First Race
Once youโve decided on the type of racing that suits your budget and interests, itโs time to prepare for your first race. Hereโs what you need to know to get started.
Safety First: Gear and Requirements
Safety should always be your top priority. Investing in quality safety gear, such as a helmet, racing suit, gloves, and shoes, is essential. While it may seem like a significant expense, your safety is priceless, and many gear items are a one-time purchase that will serve you for multiple seasons.
Hot Tip: Club, state and national events require different levels of gear. Ensure you check with your provider that the requirements are met for your level of racing. You can check your supp regs for gear specifications.
Technical Preparation: Getting Your Car Race-Ready
If youโre using your own car, it will need to meet specific safety and technical requirements. If youโre prepping it for a certain category then download the supplementory regulations which provide the specifications you need to meet. Joining forums and connecting with experienced racers can help you understand the best practices for preparing your vehicle.
Insider Knowledge: Check the supp regs for requirements on in-car recording gear such as a GoPro or RaceKeeper. Many racing categories have made in-car recording gear mandatory with some even requiring it to be internally hardwired.
DOWNLOAD YOUR CATEGORY SUPP REGS FOR GUIDELINES ON REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR RACECAR
Maximizing Your Racing Budget
Racing on a budget requires savvy financial management. Here are some tips to help you stretch your dollars further on the track.
WATCH YOUR ENTRY FEES
Race entries often donโt include a practice day or a garage. If youโre looking at keeping costs down, compare the price of race practice to a track day earlier in the week and forgo the garage to save yourself some dollars.
Finding Sponsorships and Partnerships
Securing sponsorships can offset some of your racing costs. Local businesses may be interested in partnering with you in exchange for advertising on your race car or gear. Be prepared to pitch the benefits of sponsoring you, such as brand exposure to a niche audience.
DIY Maintenance and Upgrades
Learning to perform basic maintenance and upgrades on your car can save you a substantial amount of money. Thereโs a wealth of information available online, and the racing community is usually eager to share knowledge with newcomers.
Buying Second-Hand Gear and Parts
Buying second-hand racing gear and car parts can lead to significant savings. Always ensure that the gear meets current safety standards and that the parts are in good condition.
COOK YOUR OWN MEALS
Buying meals at the track adds up! Be prepared on race day by prepping your own food and taking plenty of water. Youโd be surprised how quickly these little buys add up.

Whether you're a seasoned pro or just curious about the world of track cars, this guide will help you navigate through the essentials.
What Is a Track Car?
A track car is a vehicle that has been either specifically designed or modified for use on racing circuits. Unlike regular street cars, track cars often have performance enhancements such as upgraded brakes, stiffer suspension, and high-performance tyres to handle the rigors of high-speed driving. Some track cars also come with stripped-out interiors to reduce weight and roll cages for added safety.
Choosing the Right Track Car
A pricey but sexy option for a track car the Porsche 911 offers A SMOOTH DRIVE on the tarmac.
When selecting a track car, you need to consider factors such as performance, reliability, cost, and personal preference. Here are a few popular models that have proven themselves on the circuit:
Subaru BRZ and Toyota '86
The Subaru BRZ and its twin, the Toyota '86 (also known as the GT86), are affordable, rear-wheel-drive sports cars that are praised for their balanced handling and lightweight chassis. While they may not boast the highest horsepower figures, their agility and responsiveness make them ideal for track enthusiasts who enjoy a car that communicates well and can be pushed to its limits.
The Subaru BRZ or Toyota โ86 make excellent track cars with their superior balance and ACCESIBLE PRICE TAG.
Mazda MX-5
The Mazda MX-5, also known as the Miata, is a perennial favorite among track day aficionados. Its compact size and nimble handling, combined with a well-engineered rear-wheel-drive layout, make it a joy to drive on the track. Plus, the MX-5's large aftermarket support allows owners to easily modify and tune their cars for even better performance.
Porsche 911
For those with a higher budget, the Porsche 911 is a legendary car with a rich racing heritage. Known for its distinctive rear-engine layout and exhilarating performance, the 911 offers a variety of models that are track-ready right from the dealership. From the Carrera to the GT3, each 911 is engineered to deliver a thrilling driving experience.
Preparing for Track Days
Safety First
Before you hit the track, ensure that both you and your car are properly prepared. Safety equipment such as helmets, proper racing seats, and harnesses are a must. Additionally, your car should be in top mechanical condition, with special attention paid to the brakes, tires, suspension, and fluids.
Track Days Near Me: Finding the Right Venue
To find track days near you, search online for local racing circuits or organisations that host track events. Many tracks offer driving instruction for beginners, which can be an invaluable experience when you're just starting out.
RaceAway Track Time hosts track days at Pheasant Wood Circuit, only 1.5 hours from Sydney or Canberra.
What to Expect on a Track Day
Track days are typically well-structured events. You'll have a driver's briefing to go over the rules and safety protocols. Expect to have time for both driving and spectating, which is a great opportunity to learn from others.
Driving Techniques for the Track
Track driving requires a different set of skills compared to regular driving. Mastering techniques such as heel-toe shifting, late braking, and understanding the racing line can significantly improve your lap times and overall experience.
The Racing Line
The racing line is the optimal path around the circuit that allows for the fastest lap time. It involves taking the widest, smoothest, and straightest route through corners to maintain the highest possible speed. Learning proper racing lines from professional racing instructors can benefit your lap times immensly. One on one performance driver coaching will give you valuble insight into how to navigate racing lines in your track car.
Heel-Toe Shifting
Heel-toe shifting is a technique used to match the engine speed to the wheel speed during downshifting, allowing for smoother and more efficient gear changes.
Late Braking
Late braking is a method where you brake as late as possible before entering a corner to minimize the time spent decelerating. This technique can shave seconds off your lap times but requires practice to master.
Maintaining Your Track Car
Maintaining a track car is crucial for both performance and safety. Regular maintenance should include:
Checking and changing fluids regularly
Inspecting brake pads, rotors, and fluid
Ensuring tyres are in good condition and properly inflated
Checking the suspension components for wear or damage
Ensure your track car is properly maintained for optimal performance
Upgrading Your Track Car
Once you're comfortable with your car's performance, you might consider upgrades. Simple performance modifications such as upgrading your tyres, brakes and suspension can all contribute to a faster and more stable car on the track.
TYRES
One of the first things you should look at upgrading is your tyres. Driving on the track puts alot more wear and tear on your tyres so you will naturally need to upgrade or replace these faster than other components. We like Nankang AR1 or Hancook RS4 which are well priced and are popular control tyres for many production race categories.
UPGRADED BRAKES
Upgrading your brakes and discs from stock can improve response and handling. We recommend Brembo Discs and Winmax pads for your track car.
Suspension Upgrades
Upgrading to coilovers, sway bars, and other suspension components can improve handling and stability, allowing you to take corners at higher speeds with more confidence.
Joining the Track Community
Participating in track days is also about being part of a community. Joining local clubs or online forums can connect you with fellow enthusiasts to share tips, experiences, and maybe even some friendly competition.
Final Thoughts
Whether you choose a Subaru BRZ, a Mazda MX-5, Porsche 911 or even your childhood dream car, the most important aspect of track driving is to have fun and improve your skills in a safe environment. With the right preparation, a suitable car, and a passion for driving, track days can be an incredibly rewarding hobby. Remember to start slow, prioritise safety, and most importantly, enjoy every lap. Track days are not just about the cars; they're about the experience and the people you meet along the way.
