Snaken and Lobelly

I am now aiming to be at the BP at Wallan at about 1pm.

If interested we can meet their between 1 - 2pm. Still only a 1 1/2 - 2 hour or so trip to get there mid afternoon at Winton Raceway..

Your thoughts..

Stiffy. Will wait there...

Bernie

Is Scrutineering available on Friday?
I do not have paperwork with me.

I am leaving North Melbourne around 9am, hope to unload Cobra at Wangaratta soon after lunch and cruise down to Winton for Scrutineering and watching.

I'm hoping someone can give us a day by day run down with pics of the event for the people that can't make the event this year? It'd be great to hear how everyone goes, what the weather and track conditions are like and any pics along the way.

Drive safe...

That'd be great. I'm sure Wazza and Gary Hall and Co would really like to hear how it all goes. Without putting the mocker on anything what's the weather outlook?

Weather looks reasonable for Saturday - if you can believe the Wangarratta and Benalla seven day forecasts.....

LJ47, sent you a PM as I will be intending on meeting up with you at BP Wallan on Friday at 6:30am etc. Regarding the Friday Test and Tune - do you have to book this with the track or just rock up and pay on the day? Also, how much? I assume AASA license is ok too. Thanks rgds Gregg
