What a great day - I went up with my dad in his Cobra (parked over on the fence in the s&s). I drove home in perfect weather via Bendigo and Castlemaine... fantastic event (except dad left the thermo on and it drained the battery)

No never seen Heathcote like that, I would say the attendance exceeded there expiations...
One good thing is there food is well priced, $2 for a water $2.50 for hot chips or a hot dog is reasonable.

Most sporting events take advantage of the patrons by ripping them off for food and drink...

HPR the family race track...
