You do drive your own car at these events so you will need to flush your brake fluid and have a pre-event inspection done to make sure you car can safely be driven on track.
Before my first event I was worried about wear and tear on my car. Honestly the only thing you use up is tires and brake pads, and not even to a noticeable degree unless you do multiple events per year. I hope to see you up at Tamworth. Check out the event info at motorsportreg dot com.

Thanks Dr1. Hopefully I'll meet you up there. When I meant "not as many friends..." it actually meant zilch.
I'll sign up to be a member and then for that event. So far no registrants yet but would be a nice weekend to spend up there. Should be exciting.
