For Melbourne people, Nick O'Hallaran & Tim Macrow will be guests on In Pit Lane tomorrow night to preview the event. BTW it gets way colder at Wakefield (minus 4 one year I was there early) but nothing like the wind and rain at the Island. The State round was awful, picked up a 17 kg camera and tripod and blew it away like a used tissue, ripped right out of my hand. Yikes! (Also tomorrow on In Pit Lane we've got the launch of the DTM -over 200'000 people- and Pole Day at Indy, plus Lap Sprints at Sandown including the race debut of Madison Gray, Lauren's 15 year old sister and the name Brabham returns to local motorsport) |

 If the door handle to door handle and passing move after passing move racing is any thing like what was witnessed at the first round of Commodore Cup at Wakefield, it will be worth the drive to watch, it was some of the best & cleanest racing i have see for years, cant wait.

And hoping for a similar result Dasher?
Brett - the wind was pretty diabolical at Wakefield the other week, was difficult to stand in let alone try and point a camera! See you down there
