Bloody shame that CAMS and AMRS are unable to co-ordinate their calendars better. Last AMRS meeting is at Wakefield Park the same weekend as the CAMS Nationals meeting.

CAMS can't schedule their own calendars - the EC meet clashes with the Sports Car Enduro at Island Magic, taking entries away from the Aus GT Championship.
CAMS seem more interested in avoiding clashes between hillclimbs and rallies rather than clashes between similar circuit events across neighbouring states. They will lose competitors if this attitude is not addressed. |

Commodore Cup has seen some great racing in 06 and im sure this weekend will be no different. The whole line up this weekend is pretty impressive.

I was there Peddler.
Not too many people. Kind of made me think of Bahrain to be honest. But then again is was Saturday qualification, not sure what your expectations were. |

I dont know about that Robert ... Crowds at the V8s, while not great are certainly acceptable ... I have to think that it may just be a lack of interest from most ... even the hard line racing fans who always talk about the merits of the other classes and categories.

The track offers alright facilities, good racing and overtaking opportunities evidenced by todays show, accessible for the large Sydney population. Good viewing opportunities if you are prepared to move your legs a little. The lack of shade on the various viewing mounds is of concern, especially when you are planning on running events during the November to February season, so definately some work that can be done there.

I'll back you there.
The two GTP races offered alot. The Floyd pass on Morcom on the run to flag was amazing. The race 2 long duel between Floyd and Lillie was very impressive. Waltons run in race 3 of the Saloon cars was also mighty impressive. Side by side through turn 1 and down to turn 2 holding it all the way around. |
