If you have not been allocated a number, please email or message the Facebook page with a list of numbers you would like. Most numbers below 300 are taken so please send a large list in order of preference, after your number is locked in you can get one made yourself to our specs or we sell them for $10 on the day.
TYRES: There is a ban on semi-slick tyres for drift at Collie motorplex due to the resurfacing. You are only allowed street tyres for the rear. Semis on the fronts are OK. If you are unsure of the difference between a street tyre and a semi-slick, please contact us with the brand and model of the tyre. Trident Motorsport is the exclusive tyre changer for Matsuri, this means you cannot bring your own tyre changer!
CAMPING: There is free camping available for drivers and their pit crew at the Motorplex. There are toilets and showers on site.
GROUPS: We usually run group sessions on Saturday, and just line up on Sunday. If you would like to be grouped with people please let us know 1-2 weeks prior to the event, otherwise we will do our best to group you with drivers of a similar level.
