Run 3 and on an steadily drying track Greg Acland leads the day so far from Rod Moody Peter Minahan Doug Barry Glen Wight ... Brett Hayward had a spin on a still wet patch and slid down the order live timing working well with many competitors taking lap tops and getting great updates ... good crowd for the poor weather Canteen is keeping up w the demand of food and beverages well done to Carol and the team of hard workers
