G'Day,

The 6 hour is on again here- great weekend. Practice all day today, race is from 10am-4pm tomorrow. Tons of JNC's and will get more pics tomorrow, but here's a couple. 50 teams compete, so there's lenty of cars including an R35.

Oooooh, can't wait to see the rest. Shocking to see such a high 610 quotient.

Okay, have gone through them all...............
Was an awesome weekend - the two teams i was managing came 5th and 6th (50 teams entered), so we were really happy with the result - last year we finished 33rd and 39th.

No not JNC but it looked tough - he's on the grid between my two teams.

Brand new- was his first time on the track, and his first session times were slower than my times in my racecar! (1200 sedan). Sure, by the end of the day he was miles faster, but I ain't applying logic........

A few others...
50 on the start grid- the 'stang was grid #16

our two teams horsing around with a bit of friendly rivalry...

Mark, one of my team members

There were some beautiful 'stangs .....

This escort gets up and moves!

Hyundai Excel's - a couple were jacked right up and were rally cars, whilst the others were std height..............
And...... they won the event. It's a regularity, so practice is sat and yu nominate your times for the event on Sunday. Given there's 50 cars on the track at once, speed is not the essential ingredient - hitting your nominated time is.

Ben, whilst i am NOT a civic fan in any way... me too! Everytime it went past, it just looked like.. well fun! The mini was the same, but the civic caught all our attention. Wasn't a fan of the "snowplough" style front spoiler on another car pictured, but hey each to their own.........
