I would have loved to Andy, but Shelbyfest knocked the engine about a bit and it wont be fixed within a week.

After the 9 hour drive each way and surviving Shelbyfest relatively unscathed I'll be there.

Not sure, numbers were pretty lean a couple of weeks ago.
I have asked the question as I need to cut the windscreen numbers.

It was a great event last year and probably the best value day of racing you will ever get.

Your absolutely right Andrew - great value for money.
Numbers at this stage are low to mid 30's so we would certainly like more entries, it looks like everyone will get plenty of track time.

For anyone still wanting to enter, entries close 30 March. (Club members and non members welcome)

Entry forms available to download on the home page of the NSW Club website

Thanks to the NSW car club for putting on another terrific event.

If only they could have done something about the hail storm on the way home. Not keen to experience that again in a hurry.

Thanks to the NSW Cobra Car Club for another great event. Amazing that it was raining everywhere except Wakefield Park for a change!

Onboard from my fastest Supersprint run (Best lap was lap 3 - 1:08.59)

Great work Mads and nice work to whoever it was that snuck past you.

Thanks to all the committee for organising us a fantastic day out and comiserations to those driving home through the torrential rain and hail without a top

I'm not too sure who this is a picture of but it looks like he's still in honeymoon mode.

That was Richard Herring, man on a mission. Well done to Richard too on winning the event overall.

That looks like a cheap Pakistani extremely flammable race suit.

He might do better with his head above the widescreen.

Nice driving Mads, as a contrast........



First time using the GoPro. Just used the stick on mount on the rear deck and I think it rattled around a bit on the base causing some distortion.
