I don't understand how they can declare a result from today's race when they were 11 laps short of doing 75 percent race distance?  Unless they've changed the rules, my understanding is that it should'vebeen declared a non race.

A new track being built out Tailem Bend way. There are plans to make it a motoring mecca, including a 4WD track and adventure park.

Sounds pretty good!

It's not April 1 is it?

More importantly, it's the Bathurst 12 Hour this weekend.. 

An early morning Sunday to catch the 6AM start.  The sound of John Bowe's big Bentley going over the top of the mountain is awesome!

It was like watching a cat pounce. The 12 hour was a great finish. Might have to make a visit next year.

Wasn't it great to see the mid engined rigs outclassed by a bit of old fashioned 6 cylinder rear engined grunt, albeit with a couple of extra turbos. Great low down get up and go.
