Hi Merv... years ago I used to help a mate run his Fiat 124 hill climb car out there. The problem was always that the overhanging trees on that corner left a nasty slippery residue on the track as it never really saw the sun. It may have changed in the last 10 years but it was THE corner to get right out there back then.

I know the guys that run Noosa Hill Climb see the same effect on that run too.

But like most places any instruction is invaluble.

Do they still have the Queensland nut shells there?
I remember once running my old 100/6 there while the grille was off being re-chromed, and submarining into them. I never knew so many nut shells could fit around a Healey radiator.

Don, its been a loooong time since I've been back there. Good fun though. Some of the guys take it all pretty seriously I have to say. The guy that crack tested and rebuilt my PS rack races there often and runs Noosa in the top 2 outright for the last few years... Crazy buggers.

So are you suggesting you want to organise a hill climb event???????????
Did you have any thoughts for the thread topic? I'm surprised more QLD's haven't put forward ideas and suggestions.... Even the forum regulars haven't posted any ideas.

Looks like thread will die a natural death.
