Deb sent through a few photos and I took a couple with my phone
Have set up a page on the club site

This is the scene on arrival - note the resurrection of Rob's Robnell (forground red with white stripes and circle) - rolled over at the '08 Nationals
- they're hard as nails in Gippy - the wind was about 400 knots & freezing but the guy from the East Gippsland Car Club fronted us in a shirt and said it was a nice day !
The track has just recently been built and the main building is still under construction - looks the business
The terrain is
very steep
( and yes - that photo was taken from the car-park/viewing area where you can watch the cars comin at ya
)
The track has been constructed to test drivers with flat and off-camber corners
There have been six rollover since opening and one write-off but fortunately no-one was injured during our outing
Colin turned up with the yummy Superformance Daytona
[sounds sensational]
Having conquered the whole 'cobra thing' Ross Kaig has been racing a Historic MG (the flywheel is so light it sounds like a rotary)
Thanks again to the CCCV for putting on the event - especially Jason
- and as usual Rohan showed what a great guy he is to have around by cooking lunch for us all - thank you Stiffy
I think everyone is looking forward to a return visit.
