will you be there charged?

No I wont be, I just raced at Phillip Island so the sponsor(the wife) has told me the racing budget for this year is over. Im also working on a project and cant get out of it. Im not even doing the last state round:(

It will be great racing in the over 2 litre and under 2 litre class with leanne Tander punting round a new RX7 and Scott Flemming in a RX7 also plus another 4 cars that are a real chance.

The under 2 litre battle will be great also with Jacky Yick in the Civic and Bob Jowett in his esky.

If any of you guys can get out there go on the Sunday I can gaurentee the racing will be great and their will be more than 2 makes on the grid.

I will be watching via Natsoft is I can get some mobile bases working .. near the WA border

And this is my luxurious accomodation for the next 3 weeks:(

those 99 cars will all be racing? That's a packed grid....as I only saw a few classes.

They usually run 4 grids for qualifying then they get put in groups of 25 cars of a,b,c,d and have 3 races with all groups racing each other group, then the 30 cars with the most points go directly to the final. There is a last chance repercharge where the next 20 highest point cars race for the final 10 spots,
the repercharge race is there for people who may DNF in one of their races

very complicated but it seems to work well
