Only send pages 1 and 2 of the entry form. Pages 3 and 4 are for you to keep.
Please do not send the self scrutineering guide… this is for you to keep as a guide.
Every Driver must fill out a separate entry form. Please choose your experience level carefully as this will determine which group you are in and who you will be racing with.
The entry fee will be $160 for those who get their forms and payments back to me by 15th April and $185 for payments received between 16th April and 29th April. Carport is included in entry fee.

Payment options are on the forms. Cheque or money orders to be posted with entry forms. If payment is going into the Z Car Club Q bank account as a direct deposit then please use your name as reference and write down your reference on the entry form.
If you are entering a car as a dual entry (ie - a car that will be driven by 2 drivers in 2 separate groups) please make a note of the other drivers name on the form (fill out 2 entry forms and pay 2 entry fees) This year you will be unable to enter the car as a shared entry (ie - a car that will be driven by 2 drivers in the same group but share the runs – with only 3 timed runs this just will not work).
Acceptance of entries will be at the organizers discretion.

Thank you again for your support at last year’s event. Lakeside is undoubtedly one of the best racing tracks in Australia. This year will see the Z Car Club Qld running another “LapZ at the Lake”. With your help and support we want to make it bigger and better.
This year we will have the track to ourselves. We will be running our own Open sprint session at Lakeside Raceway on Saturday May 21st 2011 separate to any of Lakesides normal sprint sessions.
As some of you may already know, QR/Lakeside have changed their pricing structures and sprint format. It now consists of only 3 sessions of 5 lap sprints in the afternoon with practice, at an extra cost, in the morning.
This Year for LapZ we intend to have practice in the morning from around 9 to 12 (untimed) and have 3 sessions of 5 lap timed sprints in the afternoon. Practice will more than likely be in our groups and will be untimed laps. It will probably be 2 sessions of about 4 laps, but this is yet to be confirmed! Hopefully you will actually get more track time than last year with this format. We will be running 5 or 6 groups with a maximum of 15 cars in each group (instead of 20 last year) which means a bit more room on the track this time.
This will be first in best dressed. We can only accept up to 90 entries. I will keep a few names as reserves if someone can’t make it. Acceptance of entries will be at the organising committee’s discretion. From what I have been told last year’s LapZ had the most zeds ever seen at an event in Qld … so be a part of history again and join the fun.
This event is open to all ZCCQ members and invited guests and is intended to be a social track day not a competition race day… FUN is the objective !!!!
For those who have never raced before…
A lot of us spend quite a few weekends a year racing our cars and have a lot of fun doing it but now we have a chance for YOU first timers (that may have been thinking for years that you would like to give it a go) to get out there on the track and drive your cars at whatever pace you are comfortable with. Having 5 or 6 groups will enable us to have cars entered with 2 drivers (if you need to share a car) and also to put slower cars and inexperienced track drivers in a separate group to the full race cars so there is no pressure on you at all.
We will also try to have a couple of our more experienced racing drivers in the group in your practice sessions so you can follow them around to improve your skills and many of us will be on hand to answer any questions or help in any way throughout the day.
