Anyone know of any company hiring cars for circuit days ?

XJSJohn pointed me in Berw's direction as a useful source of all track orientated questions ?

Any help would be very much appreciated

Don't know about PG, but at Sepang, I am unaware of anyone hiring cars for track days, I know of several people, (including me) who have cars they would hire for races.
I was told over the weekend that a Honda Civic for the 100km race could be hired for 30,000 Rm all up, (3 drivers) tyres fuel and support team.
There is aschool in KL who will hire our pougot for th Classic Car race.
High Performance Challange do good days at Sepang, with training, and/orinstructor's and I'd consider hiring a car out to be used there, as there are limited numbers on track
But track days at Sepang are too dagerous for me to hire one of my car, (not in the sense of damage to the person, but there are real idiots out there), and the risk of damage to a car is (i think) high.
There were two open track days last week and I did'nt go, I now only tend to go club days, as open days are very crowded.
Best bet is to buy a cheap track car, (e.g I was offerd a XR4i with a nissan Turbo the other week for 6,000 Rm road legal), but of course you then get into car storage problems, which John and I have disccused on a previous thread.

Hi Mate,

I am a novice so not looking at doing races just yet.
Just some instruction and track use really, taking it easy and builing up my track experience as I only did a few tracks days in the UK before I was shipped to Singapore.

Can you send me an email to my private email address, John has it - so that we can talk numbers re : how much you would hire your car for for one of the less populated track days with intsruction.

Also the XR4i ? what sort of condition was it in - as I would be interested in something cheap like that - I have friends in KL who could possibly offer storage.

What is the crime rate like there ? would it be an issue just leaving it parked at a flat/ confo ?.

We can also take options re : storage - how expensive is it in reality ?

Cheers Mate
