Seems like there's a few track riders out there so just re-iterating an earlier post of mine:
Blatant Spam, but hey, it's a good cause, and a club, not an individual, stands to make money. Mac Park (a race track in Mount Gambier) do track days for $105 (includes track hire and 1 event motorcyclying australia licence - $85 if you have an MA licence) on the last Saturday of every month. Check out www.macpark.org for more info. Compare this to any vicco tracks and it's a bargain (although $259 for a phillip island track day is the best $259 you will ever spend!).
Mac park is a chilled out place, riders are divided into groups depending on experiance, pace or ability, and you will get ample track time. Free/cheap (unsure) camping is also available if you come from afar. No official tuition, but plenty of friendly people to offer advice if you so wish. They also do the occasional beginer/first-time-on-a-track-day as well, which have been well received by those that attended. Might be a fair way to travel, but make a trip of it (gramps and araps en route from eastern states), and I can always show you some limestone sinkhole bouldering if you're keen...
Just putting it out there!
