• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

Melbourne Track Day.......

I do, and I’ll be there.
Can’t wait
 
2 of the old forum hands you probably deserve it. I was at the Eastern creek one, you'll love it. You will never ever drive your Stinger the way you're going to drive it. I must be old i felt sorry for the cars:p:p. Make sure your phones are charged or take a camera.

Sounds awesome, I was wondering about the whole camera thing and thought about bringing a go-pro. Do they take any footage for the participants?

A go pro would be just the trick for the hot laps. They did have a film crew and interviewd a few enthusiastic folk.

Received my email for the Kia Stinger Driving Experience / Track Day, last Wednesday 04 July, will be attending the afternoon event, i know we are driving Kia's Stingers, but the outside carpark should have quite a few owners Stingers, which will be also exciting.

Surprisingly they weren't all Stinger owners in Sydney, mainly Kia owners and a few would be fans. I counted only 3 Stingers

Ok, maybe then there might not be that many Stingers present, hopefully at least mine, @Marco-Oz and @Terra so far, thanx for the photos of your track day @Ozstung.
 
Did I miss something? Was there a Sydney event that I wasn’t invited to?! :cry:

Specifically asked my dealer to keep me posted. 18 Oct. 17 delivery, one of the first in the country I imagine... Call me please KIA...
 
I just put a deposit on a GT last Friday how do I get a invite ?

Should I speak to my dealer

The dealers had no imput in the selection it was done by their marketing dept. The criteria i was told was they chose active members on the kia gt & Stinger Facebook group. On the Sydney day they asked me for any imput and i told them of this forum group as it was exclusively Stinger and have a look here. They may have gone through here?

Hey there forum members, attended the Kia Stinger Driving Experience / Track Day, i counted 13 Stingers, met some nice people, and drove the hell out of Kia's Stingers..haha, firstly i tried the Launch Control, which is just an awesome experience, then moved on to flooring it around a corner with and without the Traction Control, raced on the track as well. All a wonderful experience, and here are some photos of our Stingers.

Thanx @Ozstung, it was actually a good show of Stingers for a weekday, did you receive anything to take home at the end of the day?
