Cool, great to have you onboard, James and mystery friend... It should be a great, fun, day.

I hear the local Rotary club have been lined up to come along and supply some great food as well, so we won't go hungry. Whew.

(s)he is a mystery friend until proven otherwise Kidding of course.

Let me know if you'd like suggestions on accomodation. I should have thought of that before now.

We're racing at TFTR the day after so I guess we'll just stay at the dodgy caravan park up the road from there.

I'm coming across with Craig & Rhys Marshall, I sent Rhys' entry off yesterday with mine

Oh right, cool! Will be great to have you guys there. The road trip from Adelaide to Melbourne is a good one - long enough to be a road trip but not long enough to be too boring

Boronia has 240V on club nights and stuff like this, but not 24/7 like TFTR. It also has indoor pit facilities, unlike most other clubs.

You should note that there is *limited* indoor pitting available. Unless you're there very early you will need to bring a table and possibly some shade.

Interstaters - let me know when you enter, I will make sure you have at least a table and chair set aside, if not indoor pitting.

Practice is from 9, so power should be available around the 8am mark.
