There is nothing wrong with the layout just the dry surface makes the twisty bits a lot more slippery. Damn these water restrictions

Keilor Club members - there will be a busy bee this Saturday to re-roll the sections of the track which have been breaking up and to do a general tidy up.

We should have a water permit from the council which will make a big difference.

Cheesy will be down there starting at 8am. More hands make light work!

Those pictures bring back memories of the good old days and tracks and times when we could use water to get a decent track happening. And before we had an enforced layoff from racing of around 2 years, and that financially killed the club to get up and running again. If only we could get all the old members from back then racing again!

I would if I knew how to post them as a lot of them are to big in size to be posted here. I might need to get my own site.
