Gates Open at 5pm Racing starts at 6pm, $40 to race, $20 to watch, $10 to park inside.
Infield is booked out this week again.
I hope there is no oil downs like last week, to slow cleaning it up.
Good Luck Brad.
Wade have you had yours out at WSID Yet?

Was down your way for a few hours yesterday Brad, what's the go with no pokies before 5pm in some places. And coins only, no notes. I gave up in the end, takes about an hour to put a $5o through in $1 coins.

Have you heard the saying Leigh..... half an hour and ten years behind in South Australia :

Mind you I am surprised you couldn't find somewhere.....there are places that open at 7- in the morning down here. I think early on they wanted to put in machines that took notes but it caused a pretty big uproar in some sections of the community and they didn't go ahead.

The best holding up fantastic maybe only half way though the tread, and we drive to and from the track every time we race, Heathcote & Calder.
M/T will have a 245/40/18 drag radial out this year, I think for now I would still choose the Toyo RA1 over the M/T.
With a big stall the M/T would be the go.
