For a while it was rocket round, then it was best 2 of 3 laps and times added together.

So the slowest cars start at the front of the grid. That seems like a reasonably fair handicapping system Paul.

Hi gents,
Having trouble making 5mins with my Nova 2660 pipe. I'm running a newly rebuilt Plus 12-3SCT that's just been run in. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good efficient pipe?

The weather forecast is looking great for Friday night racing.

Last chance for the IC GT8 guys to have a run before the QLD State Titles.

Hope to get a good turnout of SSF and gas Tourer too.

Time to man up and nominate online.
