Here is a map of the track with crude overlay to give you an idea what the go is.

Hi all,
Stopped by the track this arfternoon and I'm guessing y'all would like to know how track is going under the plastic.
I had a sneaky, and it is in mint racing condition just the right amount of moisture and the blue/black groove is still intact.
This is going to be one of the fastest off road tracks in the land.
It's going to provide spectacular high speed racing, enjoy

Troy
Snives track guy, and all those that have helped you know who you are

Wish I could sit ring side to see all the great action as it unfolds.
Good luck to all the competitors.

Jeez, after watching the warmup videos I really wish I could have been there now. The track really looks like it would have suited my X Factory X6^ and X Factory X60. Think I could have done ok.

Default Practice times

For those of us who still need to go to work tomorrow, but might be able to sneak away for practice.

Is there any set times for Thursday practice, does say 4wd stock for example have an allocated time for timed practice?

This would really help, over turning up prior to work and finding out your division isn't on till the afternoon?

Check this out: http://www.castlehillraceway.com/downloads/2012/stivesnats/Print_Grid_Practise.html. Should let you know what group you are in. First scheduled practice is due to start at 8.30am (2wd stock).

Short course Trucks only have 2 x 30 minutes sessions that they can go out tomorrow. One is from 8am to 8.30 am and the second one will be from 11.18am to 11.48am. The other classes will have 3 x 7 minute sessions in the order that is listed above. We will not wait or hold up proceedings for drivers, if you miss your session, bad luck. There will be 1 minute between each group - it is all setup on the computer and we should not have to stop it all day. There will be a print out after each group and we hope to have also another program running where all laps from each driver can be looked at the end of the day. As you can see we have a full field, we estimate we won't finish till 5.30pm so we can't wait. Also thank you to Michael Harlow for putting together the schedule.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Trevor Johnstone
