Heard on the grapevine is was happening, great to see it in print.

Be interesting to see how it fits in with our club racing. We might do a club day there or something, depending on pricing.

I doubt the noise restrictions will be a drama for the cars in QLD club, they are all street driven and even though noisy, are relatively quiet compared to most track only cars. Well I know my brother will have no trouble, you can't even hear him coming.

For those not familiar ( or too young ) with this track can look at a great gallery of past events including an aerial of the track itself.

I have fond memories of this place. A small fortune of my various car bits are strewn around this track.

Talking noise not a problem

the best muffler in the world is a turbo it not only makes your car quiet it make heaps of horse power too.
if anyone asks its not a turbo its a thermodynamic muffler.
