PLENTY OF ACTION ..... yesterday though the main contentention is where the finish is in the middle of a corner... this was challanged but was over turned.... Wayne Hunter rolled his car but is OK... from a few competitors its very challanging and daunting..
hopefully the weather will clear by late today... more news during the day.....

The finish line in the middle of the corner is genius ! It should be mandatory

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

Run 4.... With a dry track the times have improved some... Brett hayward has shaved some time from Greg Ackland followed by Rod Moody in the Cheetahj and Alan Foley in the Dallara busa Peter Minahan .... Many spectators now flooding the balcony at Bryant park great atmosphere here with sun now bathing the track
