Yes Matt the goalposts were moved on us a few times,

We found out after all buying DOT tyres that other teams (Porsches etc) were all allowed to run slicks,

so we asked if we could as well..

We were told we could as long as we had a wet weather set available,

or be prepared to sit in the pit all weekend if it rained...

Which is a fair chance at bathurst...

As soon as its Raining they declare the track Wet and no slicks anyway...

98% of the cars down there for the Fosc Regularity were of the road registered variety,

with a few exceptions which may have just carried over from the Saturday/Sunday race events,

George V for example only did Sat/Sun to my knowledge...

The event was heavily subsidised by the various Porsche clubs
(280+ cars I think)
And without them there the event would not have run......

So they had some influence over the event too I guess...

I suggest if you want to go next year Send your money up front and enter like we all had to and hope you get in.

Fantastic experience!

Peter..
