Right. So far not planning on being hungover or interstate or anything. Plus it's relatively close to home. I'll say tentatively yes :)

Out of interest, what are the five 'other' NSW racetracks?

I've got:

• Amaroo Park

• Catalina Raceway

• Paramatta Raceway

And then there was (I think)

• Mt Druit ?

and

• ????

You all have forgotten Warwick Farm. 8)

Hope there is a big roll up for this one. Ken has gone to a lot of trouble setting this out. Unfortunately I’ll be at Eastern Creek for the third round of the State Supersprints and my first time at the Creek.

Who could forget the 1969 Formula One race with Jochen Rindt in the Lotus 49B and his masterly display in the wet at the Farm, being chase by Hill, Amon and Bell?

Kenny's Race Track Run

Postby Hurricane » Tue May 06, 2008 5:11 pm

:D 8) We usually always get 18-20 vehicles on a run but have also had up to 40 cars. Come along it will be a great day. You won't be disappointed Ken has spent a lot of time and effort on this run and will give everyone a map and history on each track we visit.

Although it may not be a track with corners, there is also the old Castlereagh Drag Strip.

yeah, just hand him the leash and let him walk himself! haha he'd probably make 1/4 of the length of the run because he's a husky :lol:
