Well it's on again, at Easter time as usual ... the Bathurst 6 Hour event which will have a pretty good line up. I've been accepted for a role in pit lane (possibly at the Exit, but we'll see when we get there). The lineup (apart from the GT and touring car classes that make up the 6 Hour race itself) includes GT4s, Production Cars and exclusive races for Hyundai Excels and Nissan Pulsars. The Excels are maniacal - there's so many of them and they're a complete hoot to watch - as long as they don't mess up the start! The Pulsars are hilarious in the corners and go pretty well too.
I'll be leaving Wednesday afternoon so I won't be spending a lot of time on the forum from then until the following Tuesday evening, because they are having a single track day afterwards (the Monday) and I have put my hat in the ring for that as well, so we'll wander home slowly on Tuesday.
The website doesn't have complete info on who's running - those of you who may have been a recent race official will know we have an app that gives us this info, and they haven't even got it in there yet either - and we're only a week and a bit out from the event! There has been a few issues with competitors - the grid can handle 64 cars, but they received over 75 entries!
