How big is the track at Eastern Creek? Is it huge or more technical? I need to make a decision on what class I will run. And also, is there any shade in the pit area?

Just curious about the Burgo connection.

Has he gotten into Nitro or electric now. I used to run 1/8 against him, and i know he went to 1/5 some years back.

Is it a business thing or has he seen a need for another club?

again just curious, i'm assuming he is still full bore into 1/5

i was thinking about it, but i read above, the surface is a bit rough. is it mingara/ penrith style rough, or rougher?

anyway if i do go i'd need to get new crystals, last moorebank meet it was so bad that the car would just jiggle down the main straight tryed someone elses crystals and it was so smooth! man i;ve been driving like this for 1.5months! some really scary glitches on the back straight.

darkman, come down to the normal race days, everyone gets sorted in qualifying. so you will be with drivers of your same ability.

I was there as well, and yeah, tyre choice was very critical... even though I couldn't get my car started due to a slipping flywheel problem, i helped around and had a good time... thanks to the canteen for keeping my stomach happy...

I have posted the results from Week One at OzRyderz.com you can view it over here
