Default Track update

The track has had some loving today and in my opinion has come up really well. Thanks to the guys that were able to lend a hand today and make this possible. The double double section has been leveled and the easiest way to describe it is a table top with a low hump on top in the 1st third. This should allow speed to be carried around the first corner and reduce the marshaling nightmare but still have a degree of technically to it. The chopped out section in the triples have been filled and carpet laid on top. Most of the ruts have been filled with a slurry and as much water as possible has been used.

Please avoid the urge to put your car down on it until Saturday to give it a chance to settle.

Looking forward to the next race meet so get your entries in.

That sweeper looks quite interesting guys.

I like the look of it so far, a little cambered, easier to judge at speed and while crossing your line of sight, more lead in to pick a line off the start, but still difficult to get done quickly and consistently.

Now bring on the weekend!!

The new jump looks pretty good. Should make a nice contrast to the ol' triple.

Thanks to the guys who did the work. I'm assuming it was the usual suspects?

Lol don't get married and you don't have to worry!

Love the track changes. That part of the track gave me heaps of grief.

Casey hope it's favoring the new car

A quick question in regards to http://arcr.org.au/calendar why is there no meeting scheduled on the 22nd of March? I first thought it was Easter the wife informed me today that Easter is April. Keen to get the 2WD back on the track now its working as expected.
