Track Day Enthusiast

The following letter was sent to Justin and Nathan of OzTrackDays, following a recent track day they hosted at the Marulan Driver Training Centre.


Hi Justin and Nathan,

Thanks for a terrific day on Saturday. As was fairly obvious on the day, I had an absolute hoot.

I was very impressed with the track and facilities and also feel you guys at OzTrackDays did an excellent job of running the day.

Justin and Nathan are true driving enthusiasts and both can definitely handle a vehicle.

I will be attending future drive and training days these guys are holding, for sure.

I can’t wait to see that beautiful FD fully dialled in and I’m sure it will be up there with the quickest, if not the quickest street registered track cars in the country.

On the track itself, it is a blast! My opinion is this track is far more challenging than Wakefield and a lot more fun.

The surface is extremely grippy and the track design is superb, with flowing corners and a couple of very tricky turns.

The circuit is short at only 1 km, but don’t for a minute assume this track is boring.

The track is as enjoyable as it is difficult and will definitely test any calibre of driver or vehicle.

There is little to no rest driving this circuit flat out and doing lap after lap, Marulan’s track reveals how seriously addictive it can become very quickly.

I have accepted that this track will become my home circuit after such an enjoyable day out there on my first visit.

To add to the awesome track the facilities are also brand new and top notch.

The café and club building overlook the entire race track and offer a perfect viewing area in the shade while you enjoy a meal or a snack.

Gary is a great help and is always willing to offer advice on racing lines and getting the most out of the track and is over all a terrific host.

Go see and experience MDTC for yourself, you will not be disappointed. I look forward to MDTC growing into one of the best driver training facilities in the country.

There are a lot of track day mobs out there these days, but it must be said that OzTrackDays offer a more genuine experience than the numerous others I have been involved with. Keep up the good work guys, my support will be with you.
