Morgan Park 1 hour 2011

Postby tbro » Sun Aug 21, 2011 7:03 pm

Hey all,
Well guess what?
I'm going to enter the 1 hr next month at Morgan Park QLD, BUT I need some help.( gee haven't a lot said that before )
We've got a good hp engine and have developed the car a lot further than I had any intention of doing, and it seems a lot NICER car to drive. I'm feeling a lot better than I did last year and will race as much as I can while I can.

NOW,has anyone know or have good vids of the long track. I'm trying to eliminate any chances of not qualifying this time as this will probably be my last chance to do any more 1 hour races.

So any advice would be appreciated.

See if SDT (Safe Driver Training) have any days out there before the 1hr event... Will prob cost a couple of hundred dollars for the day out there, and provided they are going to do the long track they will ride with you and teach you the course. I've done a few days at Morgan Park with them and find it well worth it.

I remember seeing this vid once before, one of the comments mentions about a new layout... hope this helps! Otherwise just enjoy some GT3 action :mrgreen:
