I was there two weeks ago with Southern Sporting Car Club. It's a good venue! Short and not very fast (2nd and 3rd only for me in AUIII XR8) but technically challenging... Especially good for beginners...

The GT-P is showing its age and the power steering pump has failed - all new replacements - so I am interested in giving the holden boys a run for there money who else wants to show how good FORDS are

I'll be there to test the new power plant, just hope the brakes are up to the task.

I think you may be onto something here Glenn. I have noticed a time delay in moving the right foot from one pedal to another.
