Also, regarding going on the track, you are placed in groups with matching cars/driver skills & experience so no need to worry about cars screaming past you or holding anyone up etc.
Cheers Gregg
Hey Gregg, take plenty of pics and we'll catch up for a brew on Monday night.

what a great day again at winton, weather was excellent,
great people, a wealth of knowledge and also so friendly.
I just wish there were a few more events up this way.
A huge thanks to the organisers and volunteers for a fantastic weekend. I made some new friends and learned a lot in my first track outing. Can't wait to do it all again. Will post some pics soon.

What an event once again! Loved every second of it. Huge thanks to the organisers and volunteers. Also a huge thanks to my old man for letting me steer the car!
Extremely happy with how the weekend went from our point of view, found 4 seconds on our lap times last year and to get the fastest lap for street cars is something i'm extremely happy with!
Well done to LJ on the overall win, had a great time chasing you all weekend and seeing our times go back and forth each session. Had a lot of fun!
Here are a few pictures and videos from the event.

I/we really appreciate your efforts in putting together a great event.
It was my forth time and I had a great time.
Improved my time by a couple of secs and nothing broke :-)
(Brake pedal was firm all weekend :-) )
Looking forward to next year and Nationals in Oct.
Here's a little video of me trying to chase Jason M. Nice little spin when I tried
too hard :-(

Well done on a great event and a special thank you to all the volunteers that made the day run well. The driving standard this year was a credit to every competitor not one recovery needed. Well done Mads you drove like you stole it, in car footage looked busy and well deserved fastest street car lap and M sprints outight! Personally it was a real hoot having my son present for the first time at a Cobra event. Like to thank all competitors that made the trip from interstate, HTP for preparing the car, Mads for making me work my back side of, Gav for showing me the brake mark in the S drag, the guys that came along to watch and support Shelby Fest its good to see the social side of the event as well.
Good stuff Gregg - better the right side off then the big gum tree on the left! How did you like the new tyres?
Andrew, the new Kumho's performed very well. They made a racket though the next morning when all of the bits of track rubber flew off. Thought I had broken something.
