Bit late Adam, was there on Jan 19 - circuit seemed pretty open
 Surface does look very nice, all the guys reported no problems other than a lack of grip due to the rain washing off what little rubber had been laid down, and bringing up a lot of the oils etc out of the new tarmac. But very smooth from all accounts - unlike the old surface

Champs
With the current anything goes, free-for-all approach to running race meetings in this country.....why even contemplate having state or country-based Championship......its just another old fashioned tradition...get rid of the lot
