Peck,
for you salivation, & delectation here

http://www.wintonraceway.com.au/file...STAND%20v8.pdf

is the circuit map showing the grandstand locations.

Remember that they will probably be scaffold, (with seats) and would better suit flat ground than spectator mounds.....

As the map shows.

Listen Peck, throw in some onions & white crow & charge $2 fiddy & your weekend is really cheap.

OR better still swap 2 snags in bread for a Jimmy Can, now then your really travelling.....

I'm sure Adam is in charge of Security that weekend, so just feed him & his boys for free & you'll be fine.......

Grass is mowed and looks good, as it was in previous years.

Selling snags is a bad idea, the local health department will be doing inspections, once you are selling food, you have to comply with all the regs, not to mention the site fee.

Im sure there will be more action to watch than peckstar getting "taken out of business"

and thanks for the clarification on the grandstands Adam , think I will give it a miss and find somewhere to watch

5 X 50 for site fee = $250 peck
2.50 x 150 = $375

That leaves you with with 125 before you have even brought sausages, ongions, bread and dead horse. me thinks your gonna end up in the red peck

nah thats not the way it works 5 X $50 is the entrance fee to the track, site fee is paid in sausages ( and maybe bacon and eggs to security).

si ideally we break about even for the weekend, thats the goal anyway, beside i reckon $2.50 is a bit expensive $2 will be the price, just gotta find a bbq

Camping.....Well, music, campfires, parties, drunk people, POSSIBILY Fireworks, (no not punch on's), and the one thing I can give an iron clad guarantee of is The Cold.

No not Carlton Cold, Winton Cold, if it snow's in them thar hills, man you will need more than a "Lager Coat" to stay warm........

After years of slagging CAMS, PIARC, the artist formerly known as AVE$$CO & just about everyone else in Motorsport, I'd love to tell you where/what i'll be doing, but sadly my legal team won't let me....

Suffice to say, I'll be there with bells on.

Bring on the reverse grid, especially into the funnel @ Turn 1
