What happens if it is abandoned? is it a likely occurence ? I presume it is a legal thing .Just curious really as over here we tend not to get 'dry meetings' just the opposite.

Due to the proximity of the track to the open cut coal mine at Yallorn nth and the possible occurance of a catrosphoric fire. The event will be postponed to another date. Its more likley this time of the year due to weather conditions. its been rather hot here. Last weekend the grass was slashed to prevent a fire.

News Fantastic rollup for the first rd though the open wheeler ranks were not very well supported at this rd. the welcome return of DC and the number 60 after 9 years was great .. Brett Hayward had car issues in practice and did not take part in competition Great to see the zip ktm of Ewen Moile do well today we dont see many carts at championship events.. It was extremly warm at the track w a recorded top of 34d. One major incident on the day Harold Roberts elfin 600 ff had a major off Harold is ok though the Elfin wil need a comprehensive rebuild . Next rd Broadford 25th febuary

We are very happy all issues now sorted It was fantastic to compete again after a long time. And ive only really driven the car around the block a few times
Was great to see Dad read the paper and not put a spanner on the car all day...We had great comments on the car all day from all and sundry.The cars very good....
I changed a few things from the practice day last week and they all worked ... We will compete at all the VHCC rds only missing Camperdown due to a trip OS.. also compete at all MGCC challange RDS... Maybe an interstate RD as well..
