This was such a great event last year, and congratulations for the Keilor guys for offering it up again!!

Cheesy also must be commended for last years smooth running of the tyre impound, a rare sight in EP OFR, with no mistakes. Glad to see you taking the reigns of it again mate.

To any of the invitees. Make the trip!! This will be a sh#t hot event, and is an absolute blast if you've not raced this rotating format before.

So unless you are competing at the International Reedy Race, this will be the best meeting anywhere in the world you can attend at that time of year!! (no pressure John!)

Ha Ha , no pressure mate, we have this covered, this event will be bigger and better than anything we have seen here before, we still have a few tricks and announcements up our sleeves yet to come!

Like all good events it hinges on the support of the racers, no club can put on a good meet without the epic people we spend our spare time with.

This is a great opportunity for the sponsored Invite (and non sponsored of course ) drivers to represent their sponsors at an event that is designed to promote our great hobby with the best of the best along with , what I'm hoping is a really cool support and a huge field of dedicated open class drivers and our next generation of rc fanatics !

I'd love to see manufactures pits, product support and heaps of banners and happy people!
