Rennsport comes to Australia!
http://www.speedcafe.com/2012/11/08/...torsport-park/
Woohoo!
Sydney Motorsport Park will host the largest gathering of Porsches at one race venue next May, which will include rounds of the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia Championship as well as Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge.
Having taken inspiration from similar events in North America, the inaugural Porsche Rennsport Australia Motor Racing Festival will be held on May 25 and 26 next year at the Eastern Creek venue.
Racing and road going Porsches of all types and vintage will share the circuit, with seven different categories of Porsche racing (including Regularity and Sprints for Porsche Club cars) to highlight the two day event.
The Carrera Cup and GT3 Cup Challenge events will both count towards each of their championships.
“Porsche Rennsport Australia is shaping up as the must-attend event for all Porsche enthusiasts in 2013,” says Porsche Cars Australia Marketing director Kevin Nicholls.
“With over 60 years of Porsche history in Australia we have a large customer and fan base to draw from. The cars, the people, the tales … the opportunity to be Porsche proud for an entire weekend and share a love of the brand will be on offer to all.”
Local and rare historic Porsches as well as famous racing cars from the Porsche Museum in Germany will be on display as well as performing demonstration laps.

I think I'll just be entering the Show n Shine. The track events are a little pricey, and I think I might have more fun watching the racing anyway

I'm going to go for this one... expensive but getting into the spirit. It's not everyday the Rennsport circus comes to town.
"As a road registered Porsche, I am assuming you would like to do a track event. I will assume your car is not fitted with a roll cage and you don't have your circuit 'race' licence, the event that you will be able to enter is called Regularity. For this you will only require a Level 2S licence, and some basic items on your car.
This event is main pitched for Porsche club entrants and is similar to a Club Day sprint, however you will nominate a time that you think you can achieve, and from there you are awarded points or have points deducted each lap for how close you come to that time. It is very popular in the historic racing fraternity, and allows us to ensure plenty of competitors can enjoy track activities at Rennsport.
The entry fee is $595 and includes 3 tickets for the weekend, as well as a marquee space, and a tender vehicle pass".

The new owner of the car is taking it over and has offered my a slot in regularity so I get a farewell drive of the old girl.
