Fair enough, I will check in the morning to see if you have posted.
I was thinking the same, then thought, rain means less spectators and maybe easier access to Pits etc etc. Good to see you if you make it racer. |

Oran Park is a ***** in the rain. I might head up on Sunday if this damn flu goes away. I live in Wollongong by the way.

Weatherman says rain, so it'll probably be fine
Think I might give it a go anyway and 6yes, i have been thinking the last corner onto the straight will be very interesting if wet. The ground is fully soaked by now, does Oran have a drainage problem? |

Well my father races at club level so I go to Oran Park a lot and while they've made some big improvements a lot of the spectator areas get really muddy when it rains. If you can get a seat in the grandstand (and you dont mind the sea of bird****) you'll have a great view of the circuit and you'll stay dry.

I'm in Penrith too, and cannot go because I have to work both days. I'm most unimpressed. Who else here lives in Penrith?

I'll be there, as I was today.
There will be a conrod.com.au meeting (if people actually turn up) at 12:45pm at the pit side of the grandstand with food in it. Anyway, to spot me, I will be wearing a black Mark Webber hat and wandering around with my camera the rest of the time. |

Did you catch up with anyone Elephino? I wish I had known you were there on Saturday. I couldn't make it on Sunday unfortunately. Did you see my car at the Ian Luff garage?

Unfortunately I missed the meeting of people. Just caught up with other things at the time and completely forgot.
