Great Ian.
I think I am going to take my Mini Cooper instead of the 335 for the day.
Will probably see you on Saturday at Advan to have a chat.

Like!

I just hope it's going to be reasonably priced like Wakefield and unlike Eastern Creek. It'll be awesome to have a well priced closer alternative.

Can't wait to see plans of the actual track.

They're aiming to smash the prices of both Wakefield and EC. Should be a popular track if all goes well... but I have my doubts knowing how the NSW gov't is with race tracks. sigh

Current track proposal is 1000mx8m (look at their 17th March post)... but they're now trying to make it 1600m long. It's more a mix of technical corners and short straights from what I gather...

Gday fellas I am surprised no one has commented on the day at wakefield last week, I had a HOOOOT although some of those moving speed humps need to find another track, or at those speeds a car park would suffice.

Good to meet Yous all and look forward to the next trip

Hey mate, which car were you? I had the black 130i, best time I could manage was a 1.15:02 but i reckon that's not too bad for my first try.

LOL

I really gotta find out what's wrong with the car but the procede autocleared all the codes so I'm back to square one...and I only get that fault at turn 2 so I can't reproduce the codes. Daily driving I don't seem to have a problem. Some weird things happening at cold start though...
