we might be able to get it done.. but it cant be one of those days when half the people who said they were gunna come dont come. we'd probably need deposits.
I'm trying to decide if you guys are being even the tiniest bit serious.
The Mount Panorama circuit is a public road (the whole thing, not just half of it) and can be driven on any day of the week (at the speed limit of course).
The council allow it to be closed a certain number of days a year for motorsport. There is the Bathurst 1000 of course and the Bathurst Light Car Club runs a hillclimb and sprint in early December and often a hillclimb at Easter. It's not possible for just anybody to hire the road and the rules and regulations are quite strict. If you want to drive at speed on some of the circuit we will look at including the hillclimbs in the calendar next year (it's too late to get into this year's one).
Sounds like a few people are interested in motorkhanas. There is one coming up in a couple of weeks (21st November) at Ansell Park, Persival St Richmond (opposite the RAAF base). It's a dirt 'khana so cars tend to get a little dusty. It might be a good opportunity for some of you to at least come and have a look to see what they are all about. I'm going to try to get there with It (people in the HCC know what It is).
I'm not going to be able to make it to this 'khana but I will definitely get back into them next year.
Hey Beeza,
Sorry for the late reply, but I have been out of action for a bit.
Evocivic is right...there is a Hillclimb and Conrod Straight sprint that is held in early December (held over a weekend).
They call it the Bathurst Speed Weekend and it is run by the Bathurst Light Car Club (which has their headquarters in a building on the track...just below Forrest Elbow if memory serves).
It is actually being held this weekend.....too late to enter, but if you are able to go and have a look it might get you enthusiastic for next year!
Cheers, Deb
