Hey Guys, Yes, Willowbank is re-opening this saturday night after a few weeks off for some track maintenance. Gates open at 4pm with racing from 4:30pm Entry is $30 to race (up $2) which allows 1 driver, and 1 pit crew in the one car. Spectators are $15 To race you will need a helmet, long sleeve shirt, and long pants. You will also need shoes and socks. I was thinking of making a cruise of it and having a few meeting places... like these 1- Sunnybank Maccas 2- Redbank BP (i think its Redbank) 3- Willowbank Raceway Its going to be a good day and the weather is looking good, it is expected to be one of the cooler summer days so come along and have a bit of a race. I know i'm personally aiming for mid 15's. And i wouldn't mid going head to head against JVL87 and maybe even VLT69.... cmon Jay & Scott...

I dont know if I'll be racing yet, just depends on how many people are there, and how sticky the track will be etc etc etc, I dont wanna break my diff just yet. If I do race, a mid 15 would keep me happy.

simon let me hang in with the cool crew and come with you. track will be sticky , it has been prepared with vht similar to the way they do it for a big meeting , only bcoz it is new though, theres no way they will do it every meet. but this track is good , beleive me.

Andy, I didn't think they were doing anything with the surface of the track for this round of work? Last i heard they were doing all the barriers this time and then the track work was to be next time. This time was all about preping the track with the barriers, drainage and also some lighting. Oh well maybe i was wrong but it should be a good run out there if its not too packed.

HAHA, I just hope I beat my previous best.. 19.81 @ 66MPH Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

haha im not in ollies league but i think im up there with urself. it wont be extra sticky but they have laid some tackers down as its basically impossible to run on a new surface with either no rubber or old vht down. but as rob said the cosmetics and drainage have also been catered for.

Hey i wont be racing hey can't afford it...had to buy new alternator battery and windscreen so yeh... not backing out of a race though Robby, it'd be interesting to see the outcome... ******* price rises ! Umm... will consider spectating if i could get in free with someone... I know how much my presence means to you's... so dig deep and find it in your hearts to donate the 1 free pit crew entry thing to me... cheers, oh and while i'm here if you're organising a cruise i'd suggest KFC redbank plaza, where we've all met before... or the Gails Shell where we also stopped off on the last willowbank cruise for fuel... cool **** catch ya's Jay
